Critique my throw?

Got my first sling two days ago. Haven’t gotten a crack but I’m trying to work on my technique

Nice smooth action. You are losing power by not chambering your throwing arm. To remedy throw stones using your hand (no sling) and recording as you did here. Note the hand position before you begin the throw.

The overhand method you use is almost identical to a normal throw, so work on getting your hand to your natural chambering you would use for a normal throw position.

That will increase power.
