definitely sounds like an advantage on the beach, im wondering how much of an advantage you think it plays for indoor specifically. Also, is there anything related to better injury-prevention while using circular vs bow and arrow?
Supposedly, there are less shoulder issues with circular. Its definitely more powerful and allows for more overspin. It is the most used swing by high level indoor players for sure.
@bballinbasics yes most indoor players do have elbow drive from what i have noticed. It's not as detrimental indoors because the sets are predictable, over spin is not as valuable, and the jump is so much higher.
This is the exact thing I am trying NOT to do as an indoor player, as I also have no elbow drive. It makes my hits feel like its missing so much potential power. I habitually lose elbow drive as I am trying to time the ball in the air. I can do it without a ball, but once timing comes to play, i lose it. How do i fix this?
I’ve been playing beach volleyball competitively for about 12 years, I definitely have a more unique swing, but it’s a very high contact point and usually hit more deeper into the court then straight down. Sometimes I feel like my hip is very flat so it doesn’t generate very much power. I was wondering, should I try to improve it because it’s harder to block and diggers have a hard time digging it. Is it something if it ain’t broke don’t fix it or should I always try to improve?
If you're wondering if you can hit hard like this - this guy in the video, Keoni Thiim, is the hardest server in the ncaa
Great breakdown of the mechanics, I need to check out your other videos. Why/how does this type of swing create more overspin?
Thx. Because it's easier to wrap over the top of the ball like this when you lead with your fingers instead of your elbow.👍🏼
Another excellent breakdown. Very helpful. Thanks coach 🙏🏻
I swear youtube can literally read my mind because I was just thinking about this swing as this is the only way that lets me bounce
Jumping higher, fix timing, and lastly hitting hard. We should learn in this order
That's Keoni Thim🔥

@@menehunebvb thanks for the input! What about elbow drive tho? I feel like majority of indoor players still elbow drive, but I could be wrong

@@menehunebvb wow thank you so much for the explanations!

Sounds like you might be hitting the ball way on the way down... but i would have to see it to really make a determination
Its a shortened/short cut version of circular swing.

Hit not Hip
If it aint broke dont try to fix it 👍🏼👍🏼 sounds like it's working so just go with it.
Is there anything I can do to improve arm speed? Any specific workouts?
@@TheSkidoofreak123 i dont know your arm swing so i cant really make any suggestions
I can send a video
Having a 50” vert never hurts too 😂
For sure haha
@@menehunebvbcan you tell me which arm swing is better circular or bow action
@@sameerkhan7620 in my opinion, circular is better for beach, but low bow & arrow is good too.
Nice analysis, I have a question about the Hand, should it be relaxed oder have tension in the Hand? Have a good one
Hand should have some tension for ideal contact.
@@menehunebvb thank you!
