The Stomp-Toss has a fairly steep learning curve associated with it.  The product is a coordination drill, not a swing trainer.  Here is a list of things that can help you get the most out of the Stomp-Toss.

1. Use it on level ground only.
   1. If using on a hard surface, the black hand with a small number "1" on it comes installed on the Stomp-Toss.  That is likely the best one to use.
   2. If using on grass, switch out the number "1" hand for the black "2" hand that comes included in the box.  This will throw the ball closer to the batter.
2. Learn the proper stomp pressure before you swing
   1. It can be tricky to learn how hard to stomp to get the desired results.  It is recommended that you stomp between 5 and 10 times before ever swinging. 
   2. The product is plastic and the arm will break if you hit the hand chasing a low ball.  Learning the pressure beforehand helps you to avoid making this mistake.
3. Where you step matters.
   1. Step on the entire foot pad and the ball will throw closer to the batter.
   2. Step only on the end of the foot pad and the ball will throw further from the batter.
