Tried the "V" grip today throwing with a practice javelin, and I like it a lot. I would have never thought to hold the javelin that way. Danke

good men, Great Athlete. Good luck Thomas in Tokio 2021

I LOVED THE " V " GRIP, you can actually hear the " whoosh, or whang" noise when I hit the javelin at the moment of releasing the javelin, people around me and especially the officials, I could always hear them commenting on how much " power" was in that throw lol, u can truly hear the noise the javelin makes at the moment of release , I started of with what Thomas calls the American grip, and I then upgraded too V grip and at the age of 14 years old, I started my first ever comp with 33metres, then within 3 months at the national championships I won 2nd place with a 74metre throw.

At 1:44 you can see how much he trains by looking at his hand

You have one of THE BEST THROWING TECHNIQUES EVER, U ALSO PROVE THAT javelin throwing isn't about how massive the thrower is, it's all down too technique and the use of fast twitch muscle fibres that enables you too really hit the javelin, and as soon as it leaves my hand I would know straight away if it's going too be a big throw, as i love that feeling of how it propels u forward and the way the arm just EASILY follows thru, only throwers who know what I'm talking about when it comes too that " FEELING" U GET ONCE IT LEAVES THE HAND AND IT FEELS LIKE YOU REALLY PUNCHED IT OUT THERE. GOOD LUCK AT THE OLYMPICS MY FRIEND, I DREAMT U WILL HIT AT LEAST 94M.. YOU WILL DEFINITELY WIN A MEDAL, IT WILLBE BETWEEN YOU AND JOHANNES , GOOD LUCK THOMAS. FROM HAKAN
