The type of curve in your video is probably used in about 1/4 of medium range passes in an intermediate level game of Ultimate. So what you've shown one of the best football players in the world is capable of in a low pressure situation, is typical fare for an intermediate level Ultimate player in a game situation.

There is literally en entire sport called frisbee golf that involves that level of accuracy and control in every throw, at similar distances.
