full roller
« on: February 15, 2009, 02:05:08 AM »
what exactly is a full roller? Also how do you drill a ball this way and how do you throw the ball to be classified as a full roller?
Better Lucky than good.

You track between your fingers and thumb.

The drilling has the pin almost in line with thumb, somewhat strange looking

I'm not 100% sure how you throw it to get it that way, but I am guessing you completely turn the ball on the side where the finger holes and thumb hole are rolling over top of one another.  I've always wondered and no one has been able to give me a good definition.

Full rollers rotate their wrists in a clockwise direction when they release the ball.  The standard layout for full rollers is pin 3 3/8" from grip center at a 45 degree angle to the thumb negative quadrant (7:30 on the clock system).  --  JohnP
