I love good Beach Ultimate pictures! Images that bring back feelings you had on the field. The catch, the defense, the layout...! Especially the layout is a great beach feeling. No worries about hitting the ground. Let it go and go ho!

There are some very talented Beach Ultimate photographers out there. Rene Westenberg, an old teammate from WAF (Holland), was probably one of the first top Beach Ultimate photographers. Just have a look at the pictures in Hargen he recently took.

Stephen Chiang on the other side of the Atlantic is another great photographer. His pictures of LeiOut last January were amazing!

And then there are photographers like Marco Luz that hardly know the game and just do well. Just look at the picture of David Pimenta that is now used for the BULA Monster BUTT, happening this weekend.

For more great pictures, check out our royalty free pictures page. Lots of great shots that you can download and use for tournaments, posters, articles, etc...

And then there are the mere mortals - people like you and me that just want to take good shots to remember the event. From Mozambique Beach Ultimate, to hurricane recovering Galveston. With our digital camera in hand we snap away. Lots a great times to remember!

The Beach Ultimate tournament in Kiev seems to attract a lot of interesting people. Christian Jennewein, the French/German/Scottish founder of Ffindr, went and he told me Kiev Hat is great. Really good Ultimate and a lot of fun. The spot was beautiful and considering that the tourney is inside a capital it qualifies as one of the best sites ever. Approx. 250 players from mainly Russia (75%), Ukraine (20%), Belarussia (4%) and foreigners (4 in total) made this a really unique experience.

A funky TV station also visited the tournament. I am not sure if the girl was drunk or just really happy but from what I saw it was clearly a BULA tournament: Play hard, party hard:-)

Yellowknife, the capital of the Northwest Territories (Canada), is not the most obvious place to find Beach Ultimate. However, in Ultimate loving Canada, local players are not deterred by geographic constraints and the following email was sent to local players:

"Hi everybody,

So, if you will be in town and are interested in playing, reply to this email and I will see what we’ve got in terms of numbers."

I wonder if they managed to get enough players. If so, it would qualify as the most northern Beach Ultimate tournament in the word.

Most of the beaches in Hawaii are not very conducive to playing disc but a local group have made some strong relationships in Waimanalo over the last several years. A few years ago they had a summer beach league that lasted about 8 Saturdays.

They are also holding the 5th official Tweedle Beetle Beach Battle August 8 & 9 a Waimanalo Bay Beach Park (a.k.a. Sherwoods or Waimanalo Bay State Recreation Area) map

It’s always been pretty low-key and not highly advertised; mostly just local players. One year they did get an entire team of women from Japan and now they want to see if there are more travelers around.

Travelling? Wanna play beach ultimate in Hawaii? Sounds and looks like fun to me :-)
