Edited: I was reading a thread which degenerated into bickering
don't they all ?
As far as the balearic rules go - they are kind of dumb and rarely applied. And pep admits they are pretty outdated.
The rules state: 2 rotations OVERHEAD.
The vast majority of balearic slingers don't do any overhead rotations.
It's primarily sidearm.
There are even a couple clubs that use figure 8 and pepe from malaga
(as opposed to the myriad other 'pepe's) doesn't use any rotations.
And I would REALLY like to see someone try and disqualify him lol
I've been hassled a few times, but that's par for the course, as far as I'm concerned. lol
And I do try out different styles during competition, They REALLY hate byzantine lol
If it's going to happen - it will generally happen to me
Basically any style with an overhead release is good for slinging over troops.
The windup is largely irrelevant, it's the release that counts.
