When I first started throwing, I struggled greatly with the caber, and that’s no exaggeration. Just ask some of my fellow HASA members and they’ll tell you.. So, I did what any newbie would do - I turned to YouTube. Through my rigorous research, one man kept coming up as a dude who crushed monster cabers; legend was that there wasn't a caber this guy couldn't turn. Mike Smith is this man's name, and I quickly decided that if I want to be even pedestrian at this event (it took me five games before I even turned my first one), I had better replicate what this man was doing. His "pick" was pretty standard, but it was his carry that set him apart. Mike Smith would carry the stick so high, it was almost at shoulder level, it seemed. In each instance I saw, he made a conscience effort to get the caber positioned higher. I'm no smart man, but I did the math:
Dude turns more monster cabers than anyone
+
No one carries it like him

Now, before I describe a caber carry or even defend it, know that I'm not saying there aren't plenty of different, and successful, ways to carry a caber. I'm just explaining how I do it and how I coach it.
We've already gone over the "pick" so let's jump into the carry. Once you've gathered yourself after catching this huge toothpick, work your hands up to chest level. So, what you have now is you're holding the caber with your elbows bent and the stick tucked in tight against your neck and shoulder. It doesn't matter what side you carry the caber on (I throw right-handed but carry the caber on my left side), just that you're comfortable with the caber and feel as if you can somewhat control it … yeah, I know, I know..
I like to carry it high for a few reasons:
Less Drop - When I'm about to pull the caber and flip it, the "drop" of that caber is critical. If you jump stop your approach (don't, by the way, but again, more on that later), you're fighting yourself. The lower my carry is, the longer pull I have at the finish, and the more momentum I have to fit as I pull that stick all the way up. With a high carry, I can more easily hit that explosive finish position I want, without having to drop down in the basement to gather for a big turn.
Tight Shoulder - I want to feel in control of the caber. The higher I hold it and the tighter it is against my chest, shoulder and neck, the more control I feel that I have on it. I can pull it in closer to my body as needed for counter-balance and more easily give it a final "nudge" when it's time to pull it (more on that in another section). This all leads me to the last reason ...
Drive the Caber - I think a lot of people make the mistake of a simple mindset; don’t just run with the caber, drive it! With a high carry, I can really drive the caber - kind of like a football sled. You cannot carry a sled and run, you have to drive it forward – let’s do the same with a caber. I even go to the extreme of keeping my head down during the entire "drive" phase. In my thought process, if I can apply forward force to the caber, then I am speeding up the top end of the stick, making it that much more likely to turn.
And if you've not Googled Mike Smith by now, I've done you the favor of linking one of my all-time favorite caber tosses.
Carry on.

Is it possible for scam victims to receive their money back from cryptocurrency scam? Yes, if you have been a victim of a fraud from an unregulated investing platform or any other scam, you may be able to reclaim what was stolen from you, but only if you report it to the appropriate authorities. You may reclaim what you’ve lost with the appropriate strategy and evidence. Those in charge of these unregulated platforms would most likely try to persuade you that what happened to your money was an unfortunate occurrence when, in reality, it was a sophisticated theft. If you or someone you know has been a victim of these situations, you should know that there are resources available to assist you. Simply contact Ryan Ackroyd Wizard Expert, It is never too late if you have the right information your cryptocurrency will be recovered, reach out to Ryan Ackroyd Wizard Expert through email: ryanackroydwizardfundsrecovery@gmail.com WHATSAPP +7(930)660-72-54

How I was able to get back access to my lost crypto wallet with the help of Morphohack.
A few days ago, I lost the special keys to my crypto wallet and the support team couldn’t help me while my account remained locked with my crypto balance. I thought all hope was lost until I came across a post on a crypto blog about Morphohack Cyber Cyber Service, a top crypto recovery expert and hacker.
I gave it some thought and got a message out to them asking for access to my crypto wallet. At first, I thought it was impossible to do until Morphohack cyber service retrieved my special keys and helped me recover my crypto assets worth $2.8m.
I’m still in awe of how quickly and efficient their services are, truly amazing. I recommend them for your crypto recovery needs:MorphoHack@CyberServices.com WhatsApp:+1 213 672- 4092 WEB:MORPHOHACK.WIXSITE. COM/ CYBER

After an attack on my laptop that saw me lose access to my wallet keys and losing $1.2m worth of crypto, I was admitted to the hospital for weeks and if not for the intervention of loved ones, I’m not sure I will be here to tell this story.
A few weeks ago, I was hacked and saw me lose all my digital assets including that belonging to my friend. I was extremely disoriented until a post about crypto recovery popped up on my feed and I saw a similar post about Morphohack Cyber Security, a crypto recovery expert, I contacted them immediately and to my surprise, Morphohack Cyber Security was able to recover my crypto assets and secure my wallet for me. Words can not express how grateful I am for their help, and I’m putting this out there to remind people of the importance of being able to get help and knowledge about crypto recovery and security. If you have lost crypto and think it is impossible to get it back then you need to contact Morphohack Cyber Security, they will convince you otherwise and help you get back your crypto assets.
