Since I was a Human Player in 2007 I decided to Play around with throwing some tubes this weekend after seeing Tetraman's picture, and I came to similar conclusions as Don Rotolo.

We were able to throw all of the tubes relatively consistently using a sort of Sidearm inspired throw - same way many HP's threw in 2007 - they all seemed to land within the same 5 foot radius and all traveled about 30-35ft. The Circle and Square were the easiest for us to throw as they flew essentially the same. We found that the Triangle liked to be gripped on one of the points for the most consistent throws. As far as characteristics upon landing go, we didn't really care much about these as we were throwing them in a room with a waxed concrete floor - we'll try and revisit this once our practice field is up and we've got some carpet to play with.

That being said, I think we're going to teach our Human Player how to throw tubes should they need to, and I'd suggest other teams do the same. I'd be a bit leery about throwing a tube in a match though - unless of course there was some good reason for doing so.
