sorry Rene but that is legal.
They are outside the 10 meters and aslong the disc is out of their hands before their foot hits the ground,it is a legal throw.

Rule 803.04:
When the disc is released, a player must:
(1) Have at least one supporting point that is in contact with the playing surface on the line of play and within 30 centimeters directly behind the marker disc

So you cannot be “in the air” when the disc is released.

my only concern with that is the rule is stance, subsequent to teeing off. it says nothing about putts or upshots.

You may consider them illegal but the PDGA does not.

Ok, nobody jumps then releases the disc…that would defeat the whole purpose of the jump putt which is to get more distance. You can think of it the same way as in basketball. You can get a lot more distance if you jump and throw at the same time, however a true jump shot takes a lot of power out of the shot.
