When I watch Anang Syaifuddin and Tom Tom throw, its all so (non power) and more mechanics, so I fully understand your reply, thanks for the kind help Joel.
Joel. What size and weight of knife is best for half spin please? It would be difficult with a big Bowie I guess, but not impossible.Any knife suggestions for beginner please?
Well you forgot about the SKANF method. It be nice for you to do a tutorial on that. it uses elastic forses and angular momentem insted of muscular forces alone for longer distanses and more force. i wanna learn that method most., there are some vids out there but you explain things well. also for me nospin is much more easy lol but i never really tried longer distanses. i dont have anywere to go. also what are you using as a target?
I wish I knew how to throw skanf. I didn’t learn it although I gave it a serious try. A good english spoken tutorial is lacking for this method. I hope to make one in the future with Jonas Mäntykoski who is a skanf expert and lives near me. As for target anything goes. In the vid you see an end grain target.
@@joelholopainen6865 well i meant that you didnt mention it. im russian and i can translate the basics better from that one dubbed vid that im sure you have seen. but basicly you hold it with enough strength that you can swing your arm but when you stop the knife slides out and goes were it needs to. the spring forses they talk about is like in that example if pulling your funbger back and having it flick something hard instead of using your finger mussles alone. id you use your hand and body like a whip and empfasise on the elastic forses to give you more power, thats how you do it. you need to gnow the possitioning of your hand and were the knife will go because you dont want to use less force to micropossition the knife when you could be useing it to throw. here are a few vids just in case you have not seen them th-cam.com/video/g0pABtULnec/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/RfgmRSfBs8w/w-d-xo.html&

@@joelholopainen6865 awesome! Since I bought only from Zitoon and Throwing Zone but now I wanna try something from dxb and I'm in between Kharakternik and Viatich, can you give me and advice? Basically nospin and instinctive halfspin.. Thanks in advance, I started throwing in dicember 2020 and you're such a good inspiration!
@@giannetto1000 Well, you gotta have both, hehe, because it's really hard to say. I have maybe 12 Kharakterniks. It's the best universal knife in the world but it's damn good plain instinctive knife as well. Vyatich is more like the Devil claw light and perhaps more pleasurable to throw than Kharakternik due to its' light weight but Kharakternik is more stable. Hard to say. I have reviewed all those knives on my channel.
I really want to try dxb knife my self, the ravenous and Visorys look like the perfect weight but those vyatic-x look really fun and I really like the shape! Good luck, to many options. Lol anyone try those dxb bronn? Those look interesting aswell
I finally give up no spin just recently and tried half spin much better luck.. I don't have your skills but thanks for the information.. after watching your video I'll stick with half spin.. thank you
Aloha brother Question what brand , product is the knife you are throwing?? I really want one exactly like this one your throwing... Please let me know so I may buy and mahalo nui loa... That means thank you very much in HAWAIIAN from Hilo Hawaii Aloha Aloha is hi and bye in HAWAIIAN ALSO MEANS LOVE🤙🏽
@@joelholopainen6865 It was not a criticism, but really honestly out of interest. I've just ordered a set of the light Zitoon knives you helped design, and reviewed on You-Tube to learn no spin. Thanks buddy, you're brilliant with the tutorials.
@@richardbarrett4104 Thanks. I was thinking of a shaolin master who said something like ”Why to use 100% of your power when you can use only 30% and get the same result.” Relaxation, you know. But this demands better technique, better mechanics, better timing etc.
This is the kind of knowledge that you only get from practice and experience. Thanks.
Very precise instructions from which all the rest of us knuckle - draggers can benefit!😀
Nice video! The military halfspin is my new favorite 🔥🔥
Check out this tutorial to incease the distance with mil halfies: th-cam.com/video/C4jzOoyRfc8/w-d-xo.html
Awsome half spin walk back, love to see the insight through each meter of distance. Great video brotha!
Very good video, simply explained, not easy to explain. Nice throws too.
Le meilleur tuto que j’ai vu 👌🔥
Thank you Joel 🔥🔪🎯

Kharakternik by DXB Sport
Joel, forgive my ignorance, but why do you use such force from such a short distance please?
Cos' I still don't know how to throw. Seriously. But I'm getting there, mark my words!

I throw no-spin for that distance :/
