Wrapping: If a line between the marker's hands is less than one disc diameter away from the torso or pivot of the thrower, it is a wrapping violation.

The thrower may choose to call "disc space" for both straddle and wrapping violations as they are a subset of disc space violations. However, the thrower may also choose to call the more specific violation for clearer communication to the marker about what needs to be corrected.

However, if any of the above situations are caused solely by movement of the thrower, it is not a violation.
