The Correct Stance of Darts

We get this when we look at the aiming position. When we aim we put the target, the dart and the eye in one line. When we throw we should try to put the 3-lever system of the arm in a 2-dimensional plain. This reduces the margin of error by eliminating sideway movements of the arm. Thus it's easy to work out that we won't get happy with a frontal stance whith both feet touching the throwing line. Maybe this would be more comfortable, but we can't use it.

In an optimum stance the soulders and the board form a 90 degrees angle, and so does the line from the forward foot to the behind foot. But most people find this highly uncomfortable or even impossible. So we have to find a compromise.

The shoulder angle: It defines the stance. You should try to get close to the perfect 90 degrees, but not with an absolute sacrifice of throwing comfort. Proper angles start from approx. 50 to 80 degrees. The exact value here is your personal compromise.

The feet angle: The feet angle simply follows the shoulder angle, otherwise you will fall on the floor. Bang!
