Every year in late October, the best Ultimate teams from across North America compete in the Ultimate Players Association Club Championships.   Having qualified in a  series of sectional and regional tournaments, the winner of nationals is generally considered to be the best team in North America, and often, the world.

In 1999 and 2000,  Mike Bell, Lance Larson, and Brad Holmes travelled to nationals to document the drama and excitement of  Ultimate at the highest level.  The resulting three Above and Beyond programs ('99 Open, 2000 Open, 2000 Womens) have become the best selling Ultimate videos produced, and are watched by players and non-players around the world.

Now the Above and Beyond videos are available on one DVD along with a ton of extras not found on the original tapes ... including:

optional commentary tracks by great players discussing what it takes to win a championship (featuring:  Steve Mooney, Jim Parinella, Billy Rodriguez, Molly Goodwin, Christine Dunlap, Corey Sanford and JD Lobue, Jr.)

The complete final game of the 2000 UPA Open Championship, an exciting matchup chaptered by scores so you can skip ahead to your favorite part.

Additional in-depth interviews with players talking about what Ultimate means to them.

Separate instructional segments for newcomers to Ultimate

A  hardcore opening sequence featuring the best moments of all three videos in 60 seconds

And a couple of hidden easter eggs that you just might stumble across if you look hard enough.

 

If you love Ultimate as much as we do (or just want to learn more about the sport), we really think you'll  like the DVD.
