If you have not already, go to the "Articles Section" and read the one on Slinging Styles and then watch the videos.

Any specific problems or questions?

Make sure you use decent sized rocks.

Read the "ow my arm" thread - David talks some about some throwing tips for that style.

I am doing the exact same thing as you, man.

sJust keep experimenting and practicing.  I like the overhand throw the best, but sometimes whirling it underhand way up in the air is a lot of fun, too.  Just be careful not to throw it STRAIGHT up... Smiley
