huck
Launch a disc
Huck means to throw something forcefully, often with little regard for precision: He hucked the ball across the field.
In extreme sports, especially skiing and mountain biking, to huck is to launch oneself off a cliff or jump with commitment and perhaps recklessness: She hucked off a twenty-foot drop.
The word suggests bold, sometimes heedless action.
