Berlin (dpa) – The American trend of ax throwing is also good for date variety of all kinds – this can be seen in Berlin. “We have a lot of Tinder dates,” said lumberjack operator Miranda Vandenitte.
At the meeting point in Alexanderplatz, you can book an hour of ax throwing for 19 euros. The object of the game is to hit the center of the target with the ax and score points, like darts. The ax should jam, which takes some practice. But you get them, because immediately after booking there is a safety briefing and instructions on how to easily transport the almost 40 centimeter long axes in the wooden disc.
Playing in groups is the most fun, spokeswoman Isabel Albrecht said. “People are very curious when they see us from the outside and then say, ‘Are they really throwing axes there?'” Not only couples, but also families and seniors are among the customers who come to Woodcutter since May came. You can play from the age of twelve, up to four people stand in front of a disc and take turns.
Lumberjack is not the first ax throwing place in Berlin: you can also practice the sport in Schöneweide. The sport is already a trend in the United States and Canada. There are already several places in Germany where you can artistically throw axes into wooden discs.
