It does roll out in a straight line in recroom. You can jerk it back to make it whip at any point, max distance giving the most damage and splash. If you whip something and the tip touches it before you pull back, it sticks in place a bit but I think doesn't give you the max damage even if you're at the right distance. Nothing wrong with standing over something and constantly whipping it with short strokes though.
