How To Throw

Throw It Like A Pro

TOSSIT is all finesse, not force. Hold it from the back, toss it like a paper airplane, and follow through. That is the whole technique — the clips below show each piece, and the last row tells you which surfaces are worth trying first.

The Basics

Throw Like A Boss In 3 Steps

Nail these three and you will be sticking darts within a couple of minutes.

  1. Pinching a Tossit dart from the back near the fins, suction cup pointed forward
    Step 1

    Hold it from the back with the suction cup down 🤌🏼

    Hold the TOSSIT dart pinched between two fingers and your thumb. Hold from the back near the fins. IMPORTANT: Throwing it from the back let’s the weight in the front land it with a satisfying *pop.* Keep the suction cup in the front pointed toward the target. Make sure to keep your eyes and feet pointed to where you plan on throwing your dart.

  2. A light, smooth release with the same effort as throwing a paper airplane
    Step 2

    Throw it like a paper airplane ✈️

    You don't need to throw it hard. The dart is genius-ly designed to land so that you don't have to toss it like you're a World Series pitcher. It's more like shooting a basketball or tossing a fishing rod. We like to describe it as the same weight as you would throw a paper airplane. It's all about finesse. You got that?

  3. Sighting down the dart at the target and following through toward it
    Step 3

    Follow through and keep your eyes on the target 👀

    Raise your arm, hold it in front of your face and aim down the dart. Don't look away from your target as you throw and don’t look down at the ground. Where your head is pointing is generally where you’ll throw it. Bring it back in a straight line and then let go and follow toward your target like you would in any other throwing sport.

3 Different Ways To Throw

Once the basic toss is landing, pick the throw that suits the shot in front of you.

  1. A standard forearm throw at a target straight ahead
    Style 1

    Trad Toss 💪

    This is basic way to throw. Make sure your feet are pointed where you want the dart to land. Take aim. Bring your forearm back and let go without moving your body much and follow through toward your intended target.

  2. A high arcing throw that drops the dart onto a distant target
    Style 2

    Rainbow Toss 🌈

    This means throwing TOSSIT with more of an arch so that it lands further. This is used when you are farther than 10 ft away from your intended target or need to avoid an obstacle in front of you or if you just want to chuck one super high.

  3. A flatter, firmer throw aimed straight at a vertical surface
    Style 3

    Dart Toss 🎯

    This is intended for vertical surfaces. It's the same as the normal throw but this time you're going to aim straight and put a little more power on your throw to make sure the weight on the front doesn't try to land it on the ground.

Where To Play

Some Surfaces Are Harder

Almost any smooth, non-porous surface works. Start on the easy ones and work your way up — the darts stick best where there is no grain and no texture.
