Trend sport axe throwing

What exactly is axe throwing?

Hardly anyone knows how to use an axe these days. It is an unknown tool, especially in the big city, because the use of the axe is basically no longer necessary. Nevertheless, it has become more common again lately – because now there is axe throwing as a leisure sport.

We give you the opportunity to breathe new life into an old tradition :

You throw axes at damp poplar slices, which soften through moisture. This way the axe is getting stuck easier
The poplar slices are composed of five rings. Each line you hit represents a point
If you hit the outer circle, it's one point, for the middle one you get five points
The distance to the target depends on the size of the axe. The distance varies from four to six meters
Be careful though, because our axes are sharp

Safety is the be-all and end-all

Our precautionary measures for the trend sport axe throwing

At Rage Axe we offer different axes . Of course, safety is very important to us. Therefore, you must follow our rules, which we will explain to you at the beginning of your leisure activities in Darmstadt.

It goes without saying, of course, that no axe will be thrown when a fellow combatant is in the line of fire
Anyone who has consumed alcohol is excluded from axe throwing at Rage Axe, because the risk of accidents is too high
Before throwing, the axe should feel good in your hand. It must be thrown straight ahead, deviations in other directions must be avoided

During the sport, the throwers are constantly looked after by a specialist. He gives a short briefing, he shows the throwing technique and later regulates the permanent compliance with the safety measures. Throwing an axe doesn’t require any expertise – just come along and try it!

The right technique counts

This is how you create the perfect throw

Before you start, put your hands on the handle. Just imagine you're holding a baseball bat. The blade of the axe points forward
Then you pull the axe backwards, behind your head, as if you want to throw a ball. The upper body goes back
Now throw the axe forward with strength and speed and release when your arms are outstretched
Do you already have a little practice? Now you can throw the axe with one hand. The arm is bent and the target is aimed at. After that, the axe is swung over the head. With your arm fully extended horizontally, throw the axe in one fluid motion and release

Also for you

Axe throwing - a sport for everyone?

As with archery or darts, when throwing an axe you try to hit the center of the target,the so-calledbullseye. This makes it a little like darts. It is thrown from a distance of four to six meters. An axe is, of course, a heavy piece of equipment. Nevertheless, concentration and care are required when throwing rather than strength. Finding the right technique can take some time. Because it is difficult that the steel disc really gets stuck in the wood and the axe doesn’t bounce off the handle.

Nevertheless, it can be said that successes can be recorded quite quickly.
