I got taught by turning a door knob what should I think do when I twist

[@DanBlewett]

stop the doorknob stuff immediately

[@jackcerven2415]

Doorknob is a tip for a changeup

Is the knuckle curve different from the curveball?

[@DanBlewett]

Not in how it’s thrown. Only in the finger placement on the ball. I have another video about that in this curveball course playlist

[@seroromix]

I throw a knuckle curveball but i have the ball deep in my hand and my thumb is more on the side. Instead of throwing it like a traditional curveball i throw just like a fastball and try to snap my wrist at release point and try to give it red dot spin. Thats how i throw my curveball.

[@DanBlewett]

unfortunately, none of that makes good sense. Sorry, but you should stop doing it that way.

@@DanBlewett ive been throwing it like that for couple years now. Works really well. Its more of letting the grip do the work kind of pitch i could never throw a regular curveball or slider cause of the throwing on the curveball felt like i was tipping my pitch and the slider felt uncomfortable on my arm. Then my coach showed me the knuckle curve and almost immediately saw good results. No pain no discomfort and its probably my best pitch. And when i mean snap i mean pronation. I also feel like its safer on the arm because it mimics the fastball arm action. Here's another guy whos throws it similar only real difference is his is spiked my pitch is knucked Link: m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYDEe6qHlNSNhqs Why do you feel its no good???

@@seroromix why do you pronate on a curveball? It just doesn’t make sense
