Video: SXSW Bowling Technique

April 1, 2007  | Tags: video, sxsw, bowling

This is a video of me bowling at SXSW 2007 in Austin, TX. The video shows step-by-step the technique I've developed (though, I use that term loosely). First, you extend the ball forward, in front of you. Next, you lift it over your head. Then, you bring it behind you. At the release, you spin your arm around the ball (I recommend 'palming' the ball -- don't use the thumb hole). You should try to land the ball near the left edge of the lane, aiming at the right gutter. This will give it a more dramatic effect as it curves at the edge of the gutter and comes back to strike the pins. The most important part, though, is a good victory dance! Even if you don't get a strike! (just don't fall down..)
