[QUOTE="die_mole, post: 775867, member: 73648"] The law requires the following things for their to be a tip tackle: 1. Tackler lifting the player off the ground. 2. Player being dropped or driven into the ground before their feet have touched the ground. 3. That the player landed on their upper body or head. The beyond the horizontal is just a rule of thumb, you can break the horizontal but if you can make sure he lands on his feet or that his head or upper body doesn't hit first you are fine. [/QUOTE]
