throwing is what you do at a hardcore show, it's they way you express yourself when listening to hardcore music usually done in breakdowns and two steps. when you're at shows you get really hype so throwing is your way to express how hype you are. a lot of people think that throwing is just a flailing of your arms and random kicks and sometimes that is what happens but that's just someone that doesn't know what they're doing. just like any good dancer, anyone who is good at throwing has a plan on what they're going to do. everyone who throws has their own specific style also. in throwing there's certain moves that people do like forwards, backs,
windmills, up and
overs, spin kicks, butterfly kicks, back kicks, and the occasional cartwheels. often at shows there is crowdkilling which is
heaving your body into the crowd or throwing near the wall of the pit to open up space or just for fun. to open up space you can also
box out like you do in basketball for a rebound. circle pits and
wall of death's aren't hardcore at all, they are for people who aren't talented enough to throw. and if you're really hardcore you will shake your head when the band tells you to start a circle pit or a wall of death and will throw instead. throwing is oftenly confused with
moshing, moshing is what happens
in push pits and everyone knows that push pits are wack.
