By having your thumb lower than your fingers, you are creating a moment around the die&#8217;s center of gravity to give you rotation. Your thumb naturally comes off first and the energy that you impart on the dice from your forward swing lets the dice roll off your fingers giving you rotation. <\/p>\n<p>\tThe adjustment with the thumb should always be slight till you find the right amount of rotation for your toss.<\/p>\n<p>\tSo move your thumb down and you will get more rotation, (backspin) and move your thumb up to get less backspin.<\/p>\n<p>\tDominator<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Set44 on February 18, 2013, 9:30 pm<\/p>\n<div>Thank you, I am practicing.

When the thumb is lower and the fingers higher you are essentially increasing the size of the lever and conversely when they are closer together the lever is smaller. The other thing that you want to do is to be aware of how much your fingers are touching the edges of the dice. If you are touching the edges of the dice then you are increasing the rotation.<br \/>\n\tI hope that this helps.<br \/>\n\tBTK<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How do you reduce the dice revs with our throw?
