Caber Tossing

ah, bless the Scottish:
'Hey, lets pick up tree and throw it'

and it is sooo much fun

live at the apollo? :)

Who is the competitor that tosses it? Looks like Gregor to me but cant tell for sure???

Its not for distance buddy

There is no set length or weight for the caber. The Braemar caber is recognised as the most challenging caber of them all. There has been less than 10 people in history tossed it completely.
The rules state that the caber should be big enough so that only 1 or 2 competitors can toss it.

this is about as perfect a throw as you can get...

im a nerd for googling what that meant...very glad i didnt know...

Yes, The Dance is a wonderment of its own! Unfortunately, I have the deformed feet, as there was nothing but ballet or tap where I grew up. Wish I could've! And to grow up seeing such feats! I'm envious! (Caber tossing explains how I was taught to fight, though- "Pick em up and throw 'em!" LOL!)

Yea, good memories for sure...if you still want to try I have a list of all registered teachers in the US so you could see if one is reasonably close. Or if you want something a little less strenuous you could always try Scottish Country Dancing :)
