The string that comes with a bearing king is way, way too short.&nbsp; Like 12" too short.&nbsp; That might be the problem.&nbsp; The string for a BK should be at least 64" long.&nbsp; You should be able to find some string at a hardware store, just know that if the string is thinner than the stock string, you will need to size it longer.

Otherwise, scroll down to “Throw”

Thank you so much, I think I was throwing correctly but i did have a feeling it was too short because when i threw it would start turning upright and fall on its side.
