Meet day
Was a little tired since this was a duel meet after school but I still got decent marks. 128’10 then 122’ and then 128’10” again. Any advice helps! My Dad was volunteering by the ring so I was able to get good film. The throws felt good but after watching the videos I think my release and finish could use some improvement.

In your last throw you had a good connection to the ground with your feet and a good hip pop at the end. One thing that could be better is your separation: after your entry you started leading the rotation with your head so your upper body and lower body were in the same line. Make sure you keep your arm and shoulders behind compared to your legs until the last possible moment. That way, you can use your whole torso at the end of your rotation along with your arm power! Hope this helps, keep it up!

Practice throw (around 24m)
Hello everyone! Here is a video of a throw I took yesterday during practice. I am pretty happy with my entry but my coach tells me that I push off my left to drive across the circle too late, and this causes me to stear to the left of the circle with my whole body. I am happy with my entry but somehow always end up losing separation mid throw. Another issue is that I lift my swing leg and bend it and this causes it to land much farther, not allowing my final power position to be wide and stable. I overall struggle to stay connected to the ground to tansfer power and struggle to stay balanced and straight. Thanks in advance for the help🙏🏻

@Jack Patterson Good observations, thanks! As a newbie I do struggle to keep the discussion flat, so I'll work on that.

Very nice! I noticed you look in the direction of your rotation with your head, try to keep it neutral since looking towards your throw will cause you to loose separation.

Hey Everyone
I am here to try and take my throwing and technique to the next level. I just PR’d at my last meet by 4 meters hitting the 50m mark as a freshman in college. I am hoping that this platform will help me get to 55m by the end of my season.
