STEP 1: Select a rock that's round, flat and smooth. STEP 2: Stand at the edge of a large, placid body of water.
STEP 3: Hold the rock horizontally - flat side down - with your index finger curling around one edge. STEP 4: Aim the rock. Envision a convex arc a few inches above the water.
STEP 5: Throw the rock low and parallel to the water's surface. Throw sidearm so that your hand travels past your waist and the rock travels horizontally across the water.
STEP 6: Release the rock with a snap of the wrist to give it a horizontal spin. Your elbow will be next to your hip as the rock leaves your hand.
STEP 7: Count the number of times the rock skips.

I know.. find a flat rock about the size of a silver dollar. Hold it between your pointer finger and thumb and throw in spinning toward the water at about a 12degree angle. Watch it skip 3 to 6 times. yip pi!!! you did it!

You have to find a nice flat rock first. Then you curl it in your pointer finder and fling it across using you arm and hips to keep a level motion.
