joe_meadmaker Slinging.org Administrator Offline Slinging Ice is Cool! Posts: 2493 PA, USA	Slinging while sitting down (because I have to) Feb 5^th, 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. 13m 30-Round - https://youtu.be/IPG31su9kmk _______________________________________________________ New video: 20m 10 Ball Round - https://youtu.be/fb7x7ixx1qA

I’m going to add this to my practice sessions I c a lot of potential to b able to understand how the upper body works during the throw by having the lower body stationary and not having to think about the step. Get well soon!

Here u go mr joe, my 1st ever, not so good, attempt at seated sling. No practice or warm up before. I don’t have any folding chairs so I used a stool, and left my target at normal heights. Hope2 cu back in the competition soon. I think we should do a week with seated rounds at 13m. This helps u c how the lower body effect the swing. Enjoy and Get Well Soon.

After the first 4 or 5 you really got in a groove for a bit. 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.

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. https://youtu.be/fb7x7ixx1qA
