Revision3 Summary

Sound impossible? It's not, though it *will* take a lot of practice.

First: a safety warning. At all times be aware that throwing cards can damage any eyes they hit! At all times, make sure that you are taking proper safety precautions and practicing in a suitably safe environment.

THE HARD WAY:

If you want to become an expert, remember that the key to card throwing is SPIN. The faster the card spins, the more stable its flight, and the farther it will go. In part 1 of this episodes instruction, you'll learn how to get maximum spin on your card throws.

THE EASY WAY:

If you're having a hard time getting the throw down, you can build up your confidence with a simple cheat using a rubber band. Part 2 of the video shows you how to fling crfs around the office this way.
