hey! 🙂

quick question about lacerations.

when I do a laceration the string is always twisted like a half a twist

anyway, what am I doing wrong

another thing, the string tension can be perfect or a little bad, it does not matter.

thanks

czyoyo :wink:

wellnormally one would saythat it is in fact your string tension but since ou mentioned that your string tension can be perfect and it still happens than the only thing i could think of is your throw. if your doing a basic laceration and your getting a twist when you land in trapeze then i would try an see which way it is twisting and working on correcting it.

As they say. practice is key

I think that the only cause of that would be that your not whipping it hard enough. But I have’nt seen you play so I don’t really know what your doing wrong. But if my advice works then good luck and have fun!
