    back.

    it apparently requires some finesse like throwing an american football… there is a spiral technique employed for accuracy.

    imagine throwing a football by pushing its long end.

      Look at the videos posted above. They don’t hold it on the end like the OP claims. They hold it on the grip but spin and release like throwing a discus.

        the correct technique is what i mention above, holding it in the middle and spiraling it. like a football.

        i mention throwing the football by its end as an example of why you lose all control of the stick using that technique, and hence, why its illegal.
