You can make objects go behind the neck (or behind the head) by throwing and catching with your hands farther back than normal.

TipsEdit

• You may have to twist your torso slightly in between throws, in the direction of the hand that will throw next, to get your hand back far enough.
• Keep your hands low so the pattern isn't too fast.
• To make it look good, make sure the throws are low enough that they actually go behind your head.
