To become a professional card thrower, you'll need to invest in high-quality equipment, specifically designed for card throwing. Professional throwing cards are made from a unique blend of materials, providing the perfect balance of durability and flexibility. These cards are designed to withstand the rigors of card throwing while maintaining their shape and aerodynamic properties. Exploring Card Throwing Techniques Playing cards and similar paper objects have very little mass and are not very aerodynamic except under certain circumstances. Simply throwing a card with no technique (that is, applying lateral speed only) usually will result in it fluttering about and falling to the ground. Achieving accuracy, distance, and force with a card requires giving it both lateral speed and angular momentum (i.e. "spin") along its z-axis. The spin creates gyroscopic stabilization so that the card's flat profile remains mostly parallel to the direction of travel and thus suffers the least possible air resistance.
