Take a drink of water or a bite of watermelon. The seed needs lubrication in order to achieve good distance.

]]> 41972 2 34 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/21143/34.jpg Choose your seeds wisely Select your weapon, er, seed wisely. The bigger the better. A heavier seed can fly farther than a lighter, smaller seed.

]]> 41973 3 43 Warning Limit the seeds in your mouth. Since taking a deep breath is part of the technique, you want to avoid choking on a seed!

]]> 41974 4 49 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/21143/49.jpg Aim the seed With the small tip of the seed pointed forward in your mouth, take aim. Choose a target far in the distance.

]]> 41975 5 57 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/21143/57.jpg Take a deep breath Take as deep a breath through your nose as you can. Remember, the more air, the farther you can propel the seed.

]]> 41976 6 64 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/21143/64.jpg Technique A good spitting technique is essential. Lean back, and then throw your head and body forward when you spit, allowing both the air and the water to force your seed forward through the tunnel of your tongue.

]]> 41977 7 76 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/21143/76.jpg Measure your progress Measure your distance and write it down. Knowing what is working and what isn’t will help you improve your technique.

]]> 41978 8 83 Tip Spit at a loved one. Good seed spitting takes practice and motivation. If you’ve reached a plateau, spitting at a loved one may loosen you up and improve your technique.

]]> 41979 9 94 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/21143/94.jpg Enter a competition As you get better and better, you may want to enter a competition. You never know. You could become the next watermelon seed-spitting world champion.
