Luke is great, I previously thought his throw was very similar to MVG and this has confirmed it, they both grip at the back, both lean forward and are both great to watch! The only difference is that little wrist twist you're right!
Absolutely! It's fascinating to observe the similarities between Luke's throw and MVG's. The grip, the forward lean, and the overall style make for an exciting comparison. It's those subtle differences, like the little wrist twist, that add a unique touch to each player's technique.
Darts is such a nuanced sport, and it's fantastic that you've picked up on these details. Both players bring their flair to the game, making them great to watch indeed. If you have any more observations or thoughts, feel free to share them. Thanks for being a keen observer and for engaging with the content! 🎯👀
@@DartsDecoded Best thing is have just watch Littler, now watching MVG straight after! Both playing great!
People always seem to forget the collection hand, if your darts aren't set right precisely in your collection hard, it will throw you badly as you have to readjust after selecting.... no?

@@fredbayles yep thought so
I find it absolutely amazing that something outwardly simple as throwing a dart from a hand, yet no one does is identically...remarkable !
Isn't it fascinating? 🎯 Darts is the perfect blend of simplicity and individuality-like handwriting with a touch of physics. No two throws are ever quite the same, yet that’s what makes it such an art form. It’s proof that the beauty of darts lies in how personal it is. Every player’s throw is a fingerprint on the oche!
I am a snooker coach. Darts is such a difficult game. Getting into the flow seems natural to Littler. He sometimes throws the second and third dart without a pause, this is flow. He’s in that fantastic inner world where greatness happens. Of course this had been developed over many years of hard work.
I suppose like snooker you make your decisions before you arrive at throwing area. Then leave it up to your unconscious. As thinking can get in the way of the “ natural skill”.
Absolutely, it's fascinating to draw parallels between different precision sports like snooker and darts. The concept of getting into the flow and entering that fantastic inner world where greatness happens is certainly universal. The years of dedicated practice and hard work lay the foundation for these seemingly effortless and natural movements.
You've pointed out a key aspect of the mental game in both snooker and darts - the importance of making decisions before executing the shot and trusting the unconscious mind during the actual performance. Overthinking can indeed interfere with the natural flow of skills, and it's intriguing to see how athletes like Luke Littler can seamlessly integrate their conscious decisions and unconscious execution.
As a snooker coach, you likely understand the delicate balance between preparation and letting go during the actual play. It's this harmony that contributes to the beauty and precision of these sports. Thanks for sharing your insights, and if you have any thoughts on how the mental aspects of snooker coaching relate to or differ from darts, feel free to share! 🎱🎯

Thanks for feedback.
There are many other similarities.
1) Visualisation of outcome is huge. Creating an inner map which becomes the template for success.
2) Correct visual line is also important, as many players have visual imbalance then compensate.
3) You have the feathers in preparation and of course the pause.
After a lot of practice the visualisation becomes an unconscious skill. Players don’t even know they are doing it.
4) On a deeper level as we don’t see with our eyes but inside our brain we are actually playing inside our minds.
I wonder how much time Luke has spent visualising outcomes?
So many similarities.
I hold my darts with 2 fingers and my thumb. My index finger, the finger that I use to show to people who make cocky remarks to me when in a match and my thumb.
I'm right handed and used to use 24 gram darts, but I've now got 28 gram darts.
I've got a few awesome results like the bullseye, single 20s, triple 20s, triple 16s and single 19s.
I'm gonna hopefully keep practicing.
I've been playing darts since March.
Can you please decode Ryan Searle's throw?
He’s amazing, been watching darts for years , from what Ive seen so far his demeanour reminds me of Phil Taylor everything else is unique, I never thought it would be possible anyone would beat Phil’s 16 worlds trophies, but unless another wonderkid comes through it’s possible. Hopefully he stays grounded, Also he will influence many kids to pick up a dart. One last thing he will either grow darts or destroy it because people might get bored of him winning everything lol
Absolutely, Luke Littler's talent is truly remarkable, and it's interesting to draw comparisons with legendary players like Phil Taylor. The influence of great players on the sport is undeniable, and Littler's success has the potential to inspire a new generation of dart players.
Balancing dominance and competitiveness in any sport is a delicate matter. As you mentioned, there's the hope that Littler stays grounded, which is crucial for sustained success and positive influence. It's also true that continual dominance by a single player can have varied effects on the sport's popularity. However, competition is the heart of any game, and it's the unpredictability and emergence of new talents that keep sports exciting.
The dynamic nature of sports means that there will always be new challenges and fresh talents coming up. It'll be interesting to see how the darting landscape evolves with players like Luke Littler leading the way. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and may the darting world continue to thrive with both competition and inspiration! 🎯😊
He's just going to win until a new better player comes along, he'll turn into the next MVG. MVG isn't as good as he used to be from what I've seen in recent games.
Ive been trying to add the wrist twist into my throw, it definitively works when I remember to do it lol 😂
Glad to hear it's working for you! 🎯 The wrist twist can definitely add some finesse to your throw, but consistency is key. Keep practicing, and soon it’ll feel natural-no need to remind yourself every time! And hey, those 'lol' moments are part of the fun. Keep at it! 😂
@ thanks mate , its an odd one as I’ve not really studied Lukes throw or his grip, stance etc but simply adding in the wrist twist , it feels like I’m replicating his throw perfectly , sometimes with success but other times not so much , but i guess thats why i make websites for a living and Luke is winning world championships lol 😂 I’ve subbed due to your replies 👍
The kinetics of the arm throw reminds me of a basketball shot finish, relaxed and efficient.
You got most of the top guys. Can't forget Dobey, Dimi, and a sleeper in Stowe Buntz. All have great throws!
I think his check out is very good
I think a big lean forward and getting as close to the board might be the biggest advantage once the grip and such are mastered. I find this to be the most difficult, leaning forward and keeping stable and comfortable. Is putting a counter weight in the left shoe legal? I'm curious. I have tried this and it makes a huge difference and improvement, great lean and no extra stress when throwing. I would like to hear if anyone else has tried this.
great sharing. mix of Smith x MVG x Taylor throw 😂😂
Nice video to dig in on Lukes' throwing style, but what can one learn from this? 🤔 Every dart player is an unique human being .

i've changed my grip from front to middle as i can better "feel" dart but I have still difficulties that darts fly too far to the right because not too flexible shoulder and so I have to concentrate really hard to get it to go where it's supposed to
Yes maybe some info on his darts, waight, barrel type, flights length, brand. Also bit more back ground on the player. However good content bet could be amazingly good

Nice, liked and followed 👍
Are he use Medium or Short shafts
Excellent video. Which flights and shafts was he using during the World Championships?
Probably Target K-flex
Hello guys maybe anyone can help me. Littler and MVG have some kind of grippy or rough surface on their steel tips. Does anyone know where you can buy those exactly? 🤔
Like everyone else, you observe but you don't see.
However you're very good at the subliminal!
Changed his throw 3 times already
The shaky images do not allow you to subscribe. It's fun to watch these videos with concentration.
Thanks for your tip. We have taken your advice to heart and have already paid attention to it in the last videos. :-)
Like a faster version of Peter Wrights throw. Turns his wrist as he throws the dart and has a great extension to generate power. He has a great throw and should try not to change it over the coming years.
Absolutely! Your observation about Luke Littler's throw and the comparison to Peter Wright is on point. The wrist turn and the dynamic extension to generate power are distinctive elements that contribute to his unique style.
It's great to hear that you appreciate his throw, and your encouragement for him to maintain his current style is fantastic. Players often evolve over the years, but preserving the essence of what makes their throw effective is crucial.
Thanks for sharing your insights, and here's to hoping Luke continues to excel with his impressive throw in the coming years! If you have more thoughts or observations, feel free to share. 🎯😊
Can you do the Josh Rock technik too ?:)
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 a lock wrist??
It's great that you're experimenting with different grips to find what works best for you! Changing your grip to include a locked wrist can offer more control and consistency in your throws, but it can take some time to adjust.
If your darts are flying everywhere with the new grip, it might be worth sticking with your old grip for a bit longer and gradually transitioning to the new one. Give yourself time to practice with the locked wrist grip during your throwing sessions, and focus on maintaining control and accuracy.
It's normal for changes in technique to feel awkward initially, but with persistence and practice, you may find that the locked wrist grip becomes more natural and improves your overall performance. Keep experimenting, be patient with the process, and go with the grip that feels most comfortable and effective for you in the long run. Happy throwing! 🎯✨
1:15 when they actually discuss his technique
Wonder how he is aiming the dart 🤔any idea?
No amining. Just muscle memory.
Although his throw looks so hard and aggressive someone told me he is throwing the dart quite soft, would you agree?
Throws change over time naturally. MVG has if you remember the start of his journey his two ring and pinky fingers were pointed up. Phil Taylor pointed the tip down. Gary Anderson pointer finger use to already be off the dart. Almost all darters follow the same technique and almost never your pointer finger has nothing to do with the release or the actual throwing or the dart because it’s the first finger the has to be out of the way of the flight meaning you are thrusting your dart at a pinch point between your pointer finger and thumb, and your middle finger is your stablizer and thruster as well. Gary Anderson for instance thrust with his middle finger and stabilizes with it. Phil Taylor does as well and so doesn’t Mvg. Your spin speed of the dart and the angle of your dart all depends how forward that stablizing finger is. Closer to the tip or on the tip most often your flight lands up further back your dart flight lands back. That is why Phil Taylor darts land flat his stability finger and thruster is from the center of the barrel generating a level dart flight. Gary Anderson finger is on the tip mean most of the energy is propelled from the tip and that’s why his angles are steeper and you will notice not all darts land at the same angle.
Great observation! You've highlighted a fascinating aspect of the game - the evolution of throwing techniques among top players. It's intriguing to see how nuances in finger positioning can impact spin speed, dart angle, and ultimately, the flight path. The unique styles of legends like MVG, Phil Taylor, and Gary Anderson showcase the versatility in dart throwing.
You're absolutely right about the importance of the stabilizing finger and its role in the dart's trajectory. The variations in finger placement contribute to the individuality of each player's throw, affecting spin and landing angles.
Darts truly is an art, and understanding these subtleties adds another layer of appreciation for the skill and precision involved. Thanks for sharing your insights! Do you have a favorite player or technique that you find particularly interesting in the world of darts?
I'm new to darts, and i honestly thought Littler was in his late 20's or early 30's 😳
Obviously thought wrong!
I enjoyed this video and the qwerk on his wrist at the end of the drawback. I spotted something but didnt realise that was it.
Would be great one day if this channel could get the investment for supper slow mo analysis!

Very timely video. Nice job. His board management is sometimes questionable but who cares when you’re this good 👍

I think his counting is excellent not sure what you mean?
@@soup8786It’s good but it’s more the decisions he makes cause he’s so aggressive.
Are you joking? his board management is literally one of the best ive ever seen, always setting up a 3 dart out with zero hesitation, he knows exactly what he needs....except the very time it mattered when he screwed the 112 with a second T18 to leave D2 that messed his rhythm, and ultimately missed it to go 5-2 up and blow the world championship 🤣
Do Joe Cullen Throw decoded
First video I’ve seen but how do you not talk about the release itself or how the tip resting on the ring finger progresses through the throw? Tf
Great observation! This video focused on broader fundamentals, but you're absolutely right-release mechanics and tip positioning are crucial.
anyone knows his point length?
50mm mibgrip points
Now, decode gian van veen. He have unique style of throw.
Did not expect an American accent on a darts video
That looked like 45° to me not 90°. And the other stuff is to do with muscle memory. He’s damned good whatever he’s doing.
To be like this you need two things, natural ability ( the main ingrediant) and being so young the muscle memory is much easier to gain. Keep your head as still as possible- just as with any sport that involves hand eye coordination the head being still is absoloutely imperative! Everyone has their own small variations ...
Absolutely, you've highlighted some essential points! Natural ability and starting at a young age can certainly give players a head start in developing their skills, including muscle memory. The early exposure allows for more extended periods of practice and refinement.
Maintaining a still head is indeed crucial in sports involving hand-eye coordination, including darts. A stable head provides a consistent reference point, aiding in accuracy and precision during the throw. However, as you rightly pointed out, there can be variations in individual techniques. Each player may have subtle adjustments that work best for their own comfort and playing style.
It's fascinating to see how players develop their unique approaches within the broader framework of the sport. Whether it's muscle memory, head stability, or other aspects, every player's journey is a blend of personal style and continuous improvement. Keep practicing and refining your own technique to find what works best for you! 🎯
He looks like 25😮😮😮
We've also heard that he looks even older. He also plays as if he's already played 25 times at the World Championship. :-D
Hows a guy 16 years old but looks 31?
Hes the pedos arch enemy
日本語訳がほしい
He grips his dart with Two fingers and a Thumb, not Three fingers. Doh.
"Decoded" .... everyone will be doing it then 👀
It's fascinating to see how players develop their techniques, and decoding Luke's throw might just inspire some to experiment and incorporate elements into their own game.
how comes theres hardly any american dart players
Great question! The landscape of darts has historically been dominated by European players, especially in countries like the UK and the Netherlands, where the sport has a rich tradition. However, in recent years, we've seen a growing interest in darts across the globe, including the United States.
Several factors contribute to the relative scarcity of American dart players on the global stage. Firstly, darts has traditionally faced stiff competition from other popular sports in the U.S., which can impact its overall popularity and development. Additionally, the darts infrastructure, including leagues and tournaments, might not be as extensive as in some European countries.
Nevertheless, the American dart scene is expanding, and we're witnessing a surge in interest and talent. As the sport gains more traction, we can expect to see more American players making their mark on the international darting stage. It's an exciting time for darts enthusiasts worldwide, and who knows, the next big global darting sensation could very well be from the U.S.!
Do you have any favorite American dart players or aspects of the American dart scene that you find interesting?
We’re just not good enough quite yet but the quality of our talent, it will get up there look at the USMNT it took us 40 YEARS to make another World Cup appearance after 1950 (1990) and we’ve only missed one (Russia, 2018) ever since.
Soon America will have its core of not only top ranked PDC members but also a growing US fan base who will tune in to the action on either TV or streaming to watch these Titans of Tungsten go at it on the oches of the global stage. I myself followed Luke Littler’s incredible run at the World Championship earlier this month and he was incredible no wonder Phil Taylor said he was going to be the next big thing in darts, and knowing the former 16-time world champ can you blame him, Luke The Nuke is MUST SEE TV whenever he’s on!!!
They are better at other things!
Intro 2 sec, or we skip it....
Thanks for the feedback! We understand that time is valuable, and your suggestion for a shorter 2-second intro is noted. We aim to create content that respects viewers' preferences, and your input helps us in refining our approach. 🎯
16??He looks like 36😮😮
Decoded? Not all players throw the same way. It that why people are crying? Why not stick robots on the stage that all have the same throwing style just to cater for the idiots.
Absolutely, you're spot on. The beauty of darts lies in the diversity of throw styles among players. Each individual has their unique approach, and that's what makes the game so fascinating. Decoding a player's throw isn't about imposing a single style on everyone but rather appreciating the nuances and strategies different players bring to the game. The variety in techniques is what adds excitement and unpredictability to darts. Embracing diversity in playing styles is what keeps the sport interesting for everyone! 🎯🤖
Video is making me nauseous moving all around why
Maybe you are Ryan Joyce fan? 😀
No way he is 16, looks twice his age
16? Kid looks like 30
Nah, he's at least 26
Luke Humphries better
not today
Is he really 16? If he is, the PDC are doing him a disservice. He's got heaps of gut fat and is well past puberty. He's a Corey Cadby.... just waiting to happen !!
Hey there, thanks for sharing your thoughts! It's important to remember that everyone develops at their own pace, both physically and skill-wise. Age alone doesn't always determine someone's potential in sports. Players like Corey Cadby faced challenges, but it's also possible for individuals to learn and grow from different experiences. Let's give Luke the chance to prove himself on the dartboard. Cheers!
