Title: Slinging while sitting down (because I have to)
Post by joe_meadmaker on Feb 5th, 2023 at 10:37pm
My ankle is healing well, but it's still going to be a while before I'm able to move around normally.  So I tried out slinging from a seated position.

Wonderful. Just wonderful. You absolutely killed it. Makes me want to try it sitting down.

I had to have a boot on for 3 months once, in te winter. Wasn't able to do a damn thing. Almost went crazy.

I thought sitting down accuracy would be pretty tough but you're making it look easy!

Nice man!  After the first 4 or 5 you really got in a groove for a bit. :thumb:

The seated takes some getting used to in that you need to have your hips in one position for the entire throw.  Definitely a weird feeling.

I've been working at 20 meters.  Although I've started putting weight on my foot so hopefully I'll be back on my feet soon.  But this is the best round of 10 balls that I've done so far.
