having trouble with cging light characters

[iceclimbersinfinent]

i cant cg light characters with forward throw or back throw, they always fly up to far for me to grab with nana, so if anyone can help that would be great

It sounds to me that you just need to work on your timing a bit.

hmm maybe i need to work on my timely as well

yup all it is timing. just keep practicing on jigs and g&w since theyre the lightest. usually when theyre lighter i do everything faster, like the movement of the stick and the time u grab. but not fast enough where ur grabbing at the same exact time ur stick(no homo) hits as far as it goes. this is in regards to bthrow btw.

heres a list u can refer to from http://smashgamers.com/2008/02/20/smash-bros-brawl-character-weight-list/
like i said the lighter they are the faster u should do everything.
