Witnessed a mate trying it, only to guide it perfectly into his grill.  ;D

I dont think i'll try it until i've mastered the sweep!

Tried it with a tennis ball first.. Probably 1 of the smartest move I made in my life..  ;D

Tennis ball fuzz tastes pretty bad..  :D

im working on mine, not the full blown but the slightly more normal way of going across and flicking it over the shoulder!

I play that towards the end of a net.

I like it because on a length you can get it away and if its full you can as well, if its short and if you have amazing hands you can get it over still, I dont but still
