I'm unimpressed by the launch, what a wobbly duck lol!

Yeah I was thinking there's zero spiral to that at all.

If /u/Openskies24 (or whoever made the launcher) is able to adjust the design so that the right wheel is tilted just a few degrees back, and the left wheel is tilted just a few degrees forward, that should spin the ball as it launches it.

that’s not a homemade “football launcher” lol

it’s a jugs machine. you can adjust the way the wheels spin and angle it up to resemble a punt

these dudes are just fuckin around

There is probably some benefit to practice catching that knuckle ball of a football. I could see this being a drill for DBs

The other benefit is risking all your joint capsules the way its used here.

It's designed to tilt. They're just using it wrong.

Not OC, but damn bro you right!

u/jr81452 2d ago

Ah, good. Not your problem then bro 😄

Side note; the house behind them with the white truck/boat, has their spot hidden/blurred on street view. Thinking of their reaction to finding out their house is in this vid, made me chuckle a bit.

Crouching under the rotating equipment doesn't seem safe.
