A meteor hammer (crosses fingers)

I was reading through the rules and I could not find a solid enough answer one way or another.
Are meteor hammers legal? I figure if the ball is made out of the same foam as an arrow with something like a tennis ball in the center to give it heft, that would work, the question of it being legal or not is the rope, which if not is understandable

Wait, is it that the thing from Kill Bill?

I presume you mean a ball and chain, correct? Or more like a flail?

Meteor hammers are a very difficult, very dangerous weapon (for both the user and their enemies) that consist of a long length of rope, usually tied to one hand and gathered into loops so that the wielder can "play" out the distances, allowing them to attack/surprise their opponents. A meteor hammer is usually launched either by a throwing type motion with the free hand or by launching it from a body part like the foot or elbow. To add to that, a skilled user of a meteor hammer can even wrap the rope around their body in fake knots that whip apart with amazing speed, once again deceiving would be opponents.

Besides being a really cool weapon, these things can gain A LOT of momentum and the rope itself can leave burns or entangle other weapons. In short, these weapons are like a miniature canon ball on a leash.

PS: I'm a rope dart practitioner, so its cool to hear someone talking about the rope dart's big brother. How long have you been practicing with a meteor hammer?

About 3 years, it started with me swinging a wood handled jump rope and i fell in love! but would this be allowed on the field?

No.  Nothing that could potentially catch a weapon and pull it from someone's hands (and anything with a rope sounds like thats a possibility) is allowed.  Control over such a weapon to keep it from hitting people in the head (or groin) would also be highly difficult, and while I am not questioning your personal proficiency, special exceptions with such things cannot be allowed for safety reasons.

It's too bad though, it does sound cool, just not practical for larp fighting.
