Keg Toss

Disclaimer: If you are some beat nerd you may not be able to lift an empty keg. Do not attempt this if you are.

Update: Several People have contacted me regarding difficulty throwing the keg. Most often this is because they have not "housed" the keg. before you attempt a keg toss you will want to learn how to "house" a keg. Click Here

Step 1: House the Keg

Step 2: Grip the Keg

Fig 1.1

Much like the Kegstand you will be required to firmly grip the keg. The difference between this and the kegstand grip is that you will be placing your right hand on the bottom of the keg and your left hand on the top of the keg as opposed to both hands on the top handles. Your gripping technique when you actually place the grip is up to you.

Step 2: Lift the Keg

Fig 1.2

After you have your grip you should then lift the keg over your head. Keep back safety in mind and properly bend at the knees so as not to do any damage. Rember, your legs are stronger than your back. Keep this in mind when lifting a keg.  Once you are in the position of figure 1.2 you are ready for the actuall toss.

Step 3: Toss the Keg

Fig 1.3

Poise yourself. You are ready to throw the keg. Bend slightly at your knees and take four quick steps. On the last step, the moment before the release, crouch slighly and bring the keg as far behind your head as you can get it. Move your arms in the forward direction. Release the keg when your arms realise full extension. If you do not release the keg you will be required to do 3 keg stands and run around the part naked. After the keg is in motion it should resembe figure 1.3. If it does face the party, yell, and grab your crotch.
