I’m very fortunate to have it! My stepdad built the room and decked it out with all the kit. Was a bit of change having to play darts in my university bedroom after!
Thanks for the video mate, as soon as I took my back foot out of the mix I realized I was using it to push off and moving my body all over. My throws instantly became more consistent once I began centering my weight on my front foot.
Mate that was great, I got a lot out of that. Love the way your presented it also. Excited to try this next time as I do notice I. wobble a bit sometimes. Subscribed!
Cheers for the video it's really helpful. I have tried to change everything in my throw, and nothing has really helped. I'd never thought about balance/stance until now. It's really helping thanks
I play in a cricket club and many of them are naturally decent at throwing straight, once they get their grip right, as they are used to bowling in a straight line over a longer distance
100% my downfall. I don't drink alcohol, so I can't use that excuse xD Appreciate the reminder. I always notice when I'm firm in my stance (balanced) I throw the dart much more consistently to my target destination. Your attitude alone is how people should approach darts, new or old.
Typically having an around 60 average (which is pretty good considering I started some years ago throwing under 30), but being pretty ambitious about darts I just want to know where my progess ends, maybe at 70, maybe I even reach 80 some day. I will try this trick, as even though I am a relatively respectable player I still struggle with my throwing and standing technique. Maybe that helps, thanks for the suggestion anyway!
I'm not knocking you but I can tell you after years of doing that stance it played havoc with the knee of my lead leg. I had to resort to a balanced stance.
I throw from left side of oche so my darts end up sticking strsight in board, standing middle to right of oche, my darts then stick in board with shaft and flights lying to the right, ie in the board at an angle not 90° outward, not sure if this will make sense. Any help to correct this. Is it grip or technique of throw to fault.?
I’ve had similar experiences, a couple things that helped me were: 1) Drawing the dart back as less of a loop and more of a straight line back 2) Could be that you’re releasing the dart very early. We want to release the dart anywhere between a 75-90 degree angle
As the dart flies it swings up and down like a pendulum (just watch a slomo of a dart throw e.g. on the Darts Review Channel) and changing the length of the shaft or shape of the flights affects that. With a bit of experimentation you can set up the dart so that it hits the board as it's travelling parallel to the ground.
When i started throwing darts i just hold my dart like a pen, but now i figured out that u should grip the darts with an lock-wrist, but when i try to implement the lock wrist my darts fly everywhere... should i keep my old grip, or try to get used to the new grip with an lock wrist??
I've been throwing dart a while now and this year is the first year I've been taking it proper serious and I'm doing good. But one problem I've always had since I started throwing is every now and then a dart will go up over the 20 outside the board. To this day I still dont undersyand why it happens, I dont feel like I'm gripping the dart any differently or with any more power but yet the odd dart flys up over the 20... have you ever heard of this before or experienced it yourself? Thanks 👍
Definitely experienced it, for me it was a release point issue. I like an early release but too early and I would just launch the dart over the board. It also happens for me if I push the dart off my thumb in my grip, happens if I start throwing a bit lazy or fatigued
Van den Berg stay both feet on the ground...dosnt matter how you stand, just dont move, but the secret is not only on stand, your hand, grip, eblow need to work perfectly so this videobis useless...
I agree! It doesn’t matter how you stand, just make sure you’re balanced and still. I mention staying on the toes based off Wayne Mardles advice and what works for me

The secret in throwing a dart straight is in the flipflops.
Really jealous of your games room. Darts, pool table and the bike at the back. Sweet set up

@@toosweetdarts6584 what an awesome step dad. I'm a step dad to a young girl so I can appreciate this very much. Hats off to him
Great tips. The one foot balance thing has improved my game so much. Top man 👍

Good stuff. I'm surprises there's not more people getting this in-depth with the technique, mechanics.
Mate that was great, I got a lot out of that. Love the way your presented it also. Excited to try this next time as I do notice I. wobble a bit sometimes. Subscribed!
Zen rooting technique.. how haven't I thought of this? Nice one, thanks

This cannot be any truer! thanks mate

The shirt stole the show 👀😍😂
I thought this was nonsense but tried anyway. Immediately went from 35 average to 60. Obviously still not great, but a huge improvement.
Thank you.
Nothing wrong with a 60 average, proper solid level of play
Love the artwork behind you😊
I am definitely trying this thank you❤
Very well explained helps alot

Love the flip flops! Thanks for the good tips!👍🙂
i average about 60-70 per game but hit alot of t5 t3, thanks for the tips

Without coming across as being disrespectful, it’s probably worth you getting down the gym and working on your leg strength.
Hey this really helped me a lot. Thanks mate
Thanks again. haha. This should be watched every few months to make sure you're still doing it right. The most helpful darts video i've ever watched.
i love your attitude
Thank you, well explained
Happy to help!
Yeah... i cant wear slides. Ill stick with the 26s ..
Thanks dude honestly was so focused on the art work then I noticed the ninja then the pool table I thought now his living 😂🙌
I do wish it was mine! Unfortunately the bike and the pool table are my step dads. I just stick to darts 🤣
Phil taylor put his leg In line with the center of the bullseye
Thank you for sharing this
Gotta keep ur arm straight tho, if you can
I stand to the left as I lean to my right to straighten up, if that makes sense
Solid. Bravo.
Never mind the bloody darts, laffin my head off, thank you
Well explained dude. New sub.👋
Thank you!
Yo that room seems sick
hitting 5/1 mate am hitting 9 and 4

Nice slippers, i play too with it
is your foot meant to be behind the oche line and not on it?
Damn I must have missed you at Lakeside this last year!
Must have, have to give it a rewatch and look for the lad who averaged 40
Ha ha good one knob
But how do you make your darts land parallel to the ground mine are always landing on the angle thx

i actually wear the exact same shoes when i play💀
all great players do

I used to advocate a locked wrist however, I would now say throw however is comfortable and keeps your body relaxed
Those flipflops are three sizes too big.

How do you “frow” a dart? 😂
Fwom your and😂
Never mind the darts, that motorbike should not be in a room, back t the darts....
Darts still going left
Before matches put on your shoes and throw in them also, because it will be funny, if You are not used to that. :)
Yooo
Great video man I always lunge forward when I shoot, gotta balance better
Foot sideways and you're 6 inches closer

Not everyone can do the same never happens
