Very nice Jack.  You make everything look easy.  And it's not.  Don't you have a Watts, and a big plastic top? If so can you make a video of them using long ling?  PLEASE.

thank you cecil, and yes dammit yes i will make that long line video!!! i just went and found some string and pared it with a larger solid wooden trompo style top that i made awhile back  now all i have to do is find a top that im willing to let it kill 
heres a pic, its way heavier and a bit larger than the QSH 



first non rainy day and that bad boy is gonna taste blood drawn from a longline throw striking a fatal blow to its adversary.........in your honour sir

Be careful if you start pushing the suicides very high, with a glass table and a car close by!

By the way, if you take a video of a suicide and inspect it frame by frame it is easy to measure the height:

H = g/8 T² = 1.23 T² with the height in meters and the time between release and catch in seconds.

If the top is light or big it might give a slight overestimation due to air resistance.

Except big birds and math!

Jack, basically the math boils down to the following:

if you had fun then the suicide toss was high enough,
if you didn't have fun then throw it higher next time.


No test to follow.

Thanks Jack. Can't Waite to see your video. Most of the time when I try the suicide throw the line wraps around the tip and just falls back. When I keep the top horizontal and throw with no twist in the line it will work SOMETIMES. Can you make a video explaining how the suicide works?  Your FAN CECIL.

Now THIS is my kind of math.....

-If you had fun then the suicide toss was high enough,
-if you didn't have fun then throw it higher next time.

Thanks, johnm!!!
