I just got a 415.3 (face-plant) on my first swing! And a 429.5 a couple of turns later. Then 492.1 on the next. Still haven't gotten a good belly-slide, yet.

This reminds me of a similar flash game called "Throw me".

You sort of swing this thing back and forth then press space to send it flying. Then you have limited use of space bar which deploys a helium balloon and there are various other things to propel or impede you along the way. It's pretty great.
