Excellent! Glad to hear!

Thanks so much! Greetings from the USA!

Throwing the softball for distance? Or are you looking for something specific?

This is a great idea! I’ll chat with one of my baseball to javelin athletes and see about creating a video 👍🏻

How old are you?

My top three would be… Throwing too tense instead of loose, a low bent elbow and throwing with the pinky side first instead of pronating the thumb.

My guess is that his index finger changes position just before the throw to wrap around the javelin like mine. The index finger has to be out of the way or it will get bent backwards and not contribute to the torque during the release. My beginner javelin throwers often grip it incorrectly with their finger straight back and it really messes with the flight. Often raising the tail of the javelin…

Great question and video topic! Stay tuned.

I recommend being more intentional with your release. Spend more time at practice working on shorter throws with your mind focused on how the javelin comes off your fingers. If your middle and index fingers are touching, you'll be able to use both middle and index finger to roll/spiral the javelin. If you need something artificial to keep the fingers together, use athletic tape (not too tight) just at the first segments of your index and middle finger (proximal phalanx). Sometimes just working on one specific skill for a bit will help you acquire it more quickly. Hope this helps.

@@coachhalley Thank you very much sir 🙏

Subhash Gautam I’ll try to make another video of how the fingers roll during the throw.

Bro first you should work on you explosion strength look at me im 16 ,5'9 and I throw 21-22 meters with a 3 step run up

Use a Finnish grip. Turn your thumb down through the release. Grip the javelin a bit deeper in your hand so the javelin rolls longer off your fingers. Hopefully this helps.

Generally adult weight is 800 grams for men and 600grams for women. Masters and youth weight depends on age.

Kiya Kro? Send video please.

It's less than 45°. Last world championship they were throwing between 35° and 39°. The more horizontal you throw the more speed can you develop.

@@zs600 so the 45dgr theory bites the dust......just like so many of them......with people becoming more aware, a d inquisitive...and channels for truth like ytbe made a available

@@Godisnotjesus1967 basically 45 degrees is the max distance for projectile motion, but the human body can exert a lot more force in the horizontal direction, so it is between 35 and 40 degrees. Since the center of mass of the Jav is towards the front, it is generally around 36-37 degrees

But I love it! I guess I can’t please everyone. Thanks for watching anyway!

Good question! I think it helps to stabilize the flight a bit more and maybe make it less susceptible to wind conditions. I’m curious about testing that idea though.
