I wanted to give anyone who had any questions about spinning rifle, flag, and saber a chance to ask a three year veteran of the #7 HS guard in the NTCA circut (out of over 100). Yeah, just wanted to show that I am a credible source. Any and all questions concerning guard are accepted. Just ask away!

Whenever I try spinning a rifle, the strap breaks sad My coach just tells me to be more careful but I can't help it. It would be great if you have any tips lol

Just one. Any tips on getting over a fear of Horizontals? Just on flag. I've got no trouble with rifle, saber, or sickle horizontals but I cannot bring myself to either release...or stay under a flag horizontal. (I got hit once.)

like how dose your strap break? does the fastener that is on the strap come off? if that is so then put some electricl tape around it. just look at your rifel before and after you spin it if something needs tighting then tighten it then and there.

is that the only toss you are afraid of? are you afraid of releasing it?
just pop it up over and over and just think to your self that it is somthing you would not want to break and cacth it. sooner or later that fear will go away and your tosses will be awsome.

when spinning anything... spin away from your body. keep in your space, "toaster". always lift up and preform. you are telling a story to the audinece and you can't smile when the music is sad or evil sounding. always engage with the audinece. grip you equip. thight enough to spin it and keep it from flying away. never go out on the feild if you don't have your equip. if you mess up quickly recover. try to rember where your drill is going. most im protantly have fun!! biggrin biggrin
