Well thrown. I am working on my figure 8. The slo-mo helps a lot. Thanks

I'm working on fig-8 too. I still need to try and bring the release down a bit to stop sending rocks into orbit

Nice shot. If it feels right and it's working, can't ask for much more than that.

I definitely self analyze a lot when I catch myself on tape.
Btw I made my friend try slinging there too and he hit the target on his first throw ever! After that it was all misses and I felt better lol

Ich selbst mag diesen Stil nicht so gerne. Er ist sehr unflexible. Auch halte ich ihn nicht für gesund . Arbeiten sie mehr aus der Hüfte . Geschwindigkeit und Kraft entstehen genau dort.

Thanks Jaegoor I will focus more on my hips during practice. I will also take a video of myself doing helicopter styles. I never really settled on any one style but am happy to take your advice!

What really impresses me, even more than the quality of the work, is how fast Jaegoor makes them.
