Flair Lesson #4: Change Grip Around the Head

A bit of a twist on the previous change grip move, lesson four here can be a bit tricky at first but will become a piece of cake after a little practice. It’s also a great starting point for a ton of moves that we’ll be learning in the next few videos.

You can “cheat” a little when you practice the throw by placing your left hand just to the left of your head and using that to catch your throw. After you’ve gotten comfortable with the throw, try catching it with the same hand you used to throw the bottle. Be sure to move your hand above or around your head – don’t blind yourself with your arm and make this difficult to catch.

Get comfortable with this move – both hands! – because we are going to build upon it a lot in the upcoming videos.

Officially smashed my first bottle today trying this one (I got a couple good throws in but I missed the catch on the last throw). Good thing I have back up empties.
