5 Axe Throwing Trickshots to Try

Spectacular Moves to Take Your Game to the Next Level

At WoodCutter, we always start with the essentials: proper stance, smooth motion, and the perfect release. But once you’ve got the basics down, it’s time to get creative. Axe throwing isn’t just about precision — it’s also about style, control, and showmanship.

Trickshots are advanced throwing techniques that require coordination, consistency, and a good dose of boldness. These aren’t improvised moves — they take practice. But they’re also a great way to challenge yourself, impress your group, or simply explore axe throwing from a whole new angle.

The Reverse Throw

A classic crowd-pleaser: turn your back to the target, swing the axe over your shoulder… and let it fly backward.

The motion looks simple but demands a solid release and excellent alignment. Get it right, and the impact is both surprising and satisfying.

The Under the Legs Throw

This trickshot grabs attention instantly: lift one leg, and throw the axe underneath it in a smooth, low motion.

The challenge lies in maintaining balance and controlling the rotation from an unusual angle. It’s all about rhythm, fluidity, and a steady release.

The Double Axe

One axe in each hand, thrown at the same time — the Double Axe is one of the most visually stunning trickshots.

The key? Synchronization. You need to release both axes at the same speed, angle, and trajectory. When it works, it’s jaw-dropping.

The Regular Back Throw

Here, you also face away from the target — but instead of throwing over your shoulder, you swing the axe down and backward.

This move depends on a smooth, controlled release. It may feel odd at first, but when it lands, it’s a trickshot you’ll want to repeat.

The Homerun

Inspired by the baseball swing, this throw is performed sideways. You wind up with a backswing, then release in a sweeping motion like a home run hit.

It’s fast, dynamic, and visually impressive — the perfect trickshot to add energy and flair to your session.
