Hurling Hex

A nasty kind of hex that can be placed on a broom. The effect is presumably to make the target broom attempt to hurl its rider off.

References from the canon

  • When Harry's Firebolt was stripped down to be checked for jinxes and curses, Flitwick checked whether it had a Hurling Hex on it. It didn't (PA12).
  • This may have been the spell Quirrell cast on Harry's Nimbus 2000 to try to throw him off (PS11).
