“Power Break,” Friend, July 1990, 26
Power Break
To break a string, or even a fishline, with nothing but your hands, follow these simple instructions:
-
Wrap one end of the line around your right hand exactly as shown.
-
Grasp the remaining line about 2′ (60 cm) from the intersection (X), and wrap it around your left hand a few times.
-
Curl both hands into fists, and simultaneously yank to the right with the right hand and to the left with the left hand. The line will break at X.
