As someone who’s been in guard only 2 years I’ve never once touched my rifle. I was too scared of even spinning it. This definitely helped me find the confidence to finally pick it up. Haven’t mastered it yet, but I’m getting there!! Thank you!! 💕
I was going through my watch later and I found this. I watched this my first season when I really wanted to learn singles 😭 Now I'm in my 3rd season throwing 6s! This was the first rifle video I watched when I started
I was curious about rifle since I never got to do it in high school. There is no way I would've been able to do this haha. I broke my nose doing a J toss I hate to imagine what kind of damage my face would've taken with a rifle.
Wow!!!!!! This helped me improve my skills on rifle exponentially. I hope I can meet you someday maybe you could teach at my highschool and we could grab coffee
I would love to! However I am traveling overseas for an extended period of time and do not have my rifle. If I do come across one I would not mind making a video
I’m not sure if you’re reading this or not, but I was wondering, since I just got a rifle about a week ago and have been in Guard about 4 years only really knowing flag, is there a smaller toss for a rifle, similar to a pop toss for a flag? Or does it go straight into a single?
Hi, yes there is. You can do a prayer/pop toss just like you do on flag in the same way. Actually many tosses on flag you can do on rifle, it just feels different because it is a different equipment. Try it out, see what tosses you can also make happen on rifle.
bless your soul for mirroring the video, literally no else has tutorials with the video mirrored and it makes it rlly confusing 😂
Happy this helps!

Yay I'm so glad this helped you!! Learning is a process and one day you will get there

Omg 😭I'm glad it helped you!! We all start somewhere and happy to hear of your successes
I was thrown on rifle this year and never taught the basics. This helped so much! My tosses have a lot more confidence 🥰
You are so welcome!! 🥰 Have a great season!
I found this to be very helpful, thank you so much for making a clear video explaining how to toss singles, doubles, and triples😊
Very happy it was helpful to you!

Thanks! Very helpful for getting more rotations/better form in my tosses!
Great to hear!!
The fact that im learning rifle by myself and this video is helping so much for it being 5 years ago
So glad it is helpful for you!☺
You’re such a good teacher! This helped me so much thank you 😊
Yay glad it helped!
Great refresher course thank you!!
Happy you benefited from it!

fascinating.
"only in NA is a rifle an instrument" got me here.
LOL
Oof those hurt, boi where are your gloves?
Hi, I don't really need to wear gloves if I am doing smaller tosses. For the bigger ones I do grab my Ever-Dri's
Thx so much for this!!
Np :)
It's beautiful!
This is a great tutorial video! Any chance you could make a "UA-cam short" of you doing the exercise so kids can practice with you on repeat?
I would love to! However I am traveling overseas for an extended period of time and do not have my rifle. If I do come across one I would not mind making a video
I can you count the single and double the same and than catch on 3 for triple??
Hi, yes you technically could. Ideally you would want to increase in counting numbers as you toss higher.

How do you get it to spin so fast??
It has to do with the squeeze. The quicker you release the tension in our hand, the faster the rifle will revolve.
Does it matter when you start which way the butt is? Because I see people starting left and right
Depends on what your instructor wants. There will be left and right tosses but usually left tosses (the butt of the rifle is in your right hand)
offbrand oogieboogie thanks
I keep pushing out my arm too much😢
Sorry to hear that :( it does take a while to get the hang of it, but with practice you will get it!
@@GrantisimoProductions I actually have it sorta! But I hurt my finger recently catching another toss and now I can’t do much :(
@@gennycar good to hear you are improving! Ouch, rest up and be careful, hope it heals up soon
@@GrantisimoProductions thanks!
That's not how u do it
Actually there are many different ways to toss on rifle, this is just one of those ways with technique.
can barely hear you
When I first made and posted this video I remember it being louder. I'm sorry its hard to hear!
