Spinning the free gourd in the air. This should be done from the elbow, and not through bending the wrist. The flip direction is clockwise for the right hand and counter-clockwise for the left hand. The flop direction is the opposite.
Ensure that the elbow is used to shake (not the wrist). This should produce a clear, articulate shake sound.
