A second look at the patch makes me wonder ........ is that string supposed to run between the index finger and the middle finger? For me it is most of the times between middle finger and ring finger. Maybe that is just an "artistic interpretation" or since there are so many ways to throw a top correctly it might also just be a different technique that I am not familiar with.
I went for so long with the string between those two fingers, mainly because I originally learned to throw a top without using a button(I would wind the string around my index finger a few times). Then when I started to get serious about doing tricks I found a video by a certain mr Pulpowsky about snapstarts. He said he had seen better results with snapstarts from players who had the string between their ring finger and index finger
, so I just decided to completely switch over to that. It took a while but now I’ve become uncomfortable with the button behind my other two fingers.
The new green patches are finally here! There was an extra delay due to the Chinese new year (yeah, they are made over there).
I completely forgot about patches! Thanks for the update! They look pretty cool.
