I prerfer the one hand toss. I am still trying to perfect it as I don't think it looks real good now. What I need to work on is not dipping my body down b4 the toss. If you have the players too close to you and each other, you are subject to get an elbow or something like this on the way up. Make sure you push them back apart from each other, men's only.

I don't understand why you referee's are trying to trick the players b4 you toss it up. That's ridiculous to me. If you throw the toss up faster and harder that won't happen. Too high is okay, simply retoss and not as high, but too low is a problem.

What I have notice with the two handed toss and the quick toss is though it looks really good when done correctly, more often than not, the toss does not go up high enough. These tosses penalize a certain style of jumper who is doing it correctly, expecting the toss to go up higher. He now has to get to it quicker. This style creates the vary problem we are trying to avoid, in my opinion, and that's to get to it quicker instead of get to it at it's climax.
