Unless you're ruling this a try for goal (I don't think so), then starting another dribble would not be legal.

The only reason the play is legal to begin with is because it's deemed to be a try. Otherwise it would be a travel per case play 4.44.3D (which used to be an illegal dribble), since there is no other provision allowing a team to throw the ball off his equipment and avoid a violation.
