I'm not really sure I'd call it a throw, as much as a carefully aimed 'bombs away!' release while on the lift tho...

You'd think they'd learn to move out of the way when the guy on the lift is making a whistling sound from high pitch to low..

I thought it was your pack that started the problem?

hang em from the wrists usually, under my left leg if I need my hands.

I use straps so they're hanging from my wrists. If I need to get something out of a pocket I just put both hanging from one wrist and use the other hand.

sit on 'em

Just leave straps on my wrist and let em dangle

That's fine. Hopefully, for my sake, your aim is as good as Gagne's. Aaah HA HA ha hAHA HaH.

I like to try and throw mine into the guide sheaves. They turn into all sorts of neat shapes if you get em in there just right. You just need to make sure that you take off your straps first!
