5 tips to instantly improve at beer pong!
Want to really blow your friends away at Beer Pong at your next house party? We've compiled the 5 most important Beer Pong tips for you, with which you'll immediately notice an improvement in your hit rate.
You can take a look at all the tips here:
Tip No. 1 – The right stance technique
To better control your shots, you should stand centrally behind your beer pong table. It's important that your throwing arm is pointing straight toward the table, but that you stand to the side of the table.
Tip No. 2 – The right throwing technique
If you don't want to make enemies at the party, you should always make sure that your elbow is always behind the edge of the table when throwing.
How can you ensure this?
Stand in front of your beer pong table and stretch out your arm – as soon as your fingertips reach the edge of the beer pong table, you have enough distance and the “elbow rule” should no longer cause you any problems.
Tip No. 3 – Swing your arm
For the optimal ball trajectory, it's recommended to continue swinging your arm loosely after throwing the ball. Why? This avoids overly "hard" throws, which tend to make the ball bounce off the rim of the cup.
Tip No. 4 – Throw high
By throwing higher, you can avoid bouncing off the beer pong cup. Even if a high throw only hits the rim of the cup, the probability of the ball still landing in the cup is higher.
Tip No. 5 – Bounce Low
When "bouncing" or "dotting," however, it's important to throw the ball as low as possible! If the ball is bounced too high, the opponent has a better chance of blocking it.
Bonus tip
Distract your opponent! Make sure all diversionary maneuvers take place behind your side of the beer pong table.
