I had tried the hand positions before to no avail but now I’ve actually got something working. Weird part is I can throw it upright now with the stock string or longer string I made?
I hold the top like normal then tilt the tip to my left some and palm down. Tip is about 10 o’clock if straight up is 12. Then I just keep my arm almost level through the whole throwing motion. I’m know I had tried this before but I guess being relaxed helped as tense and annoyed?
Thanks for the help! It’s a nice spinning top!
