You guys are hilarious! I'm over here in Atlanta, and have watched both sets of Hawaiian brothers, mck and crabb, for a couple years now. VERY exciting! I love the energy and competitive spirit you guys bring! Also, my brother's beard is down past his nips, so our family sure appreciates a solid beard! Keep up the great work! What's funny is that Caleb Thornley from last weeks shout out lives in my town and he's progressed a lot this past year. Our city doesn't have AA or AAA but just passes from A straight to Open level (huge ambiguous gap). It's been cool hearing him reference your vids and jump up to open with us and become a more consistent, aware player this past year! I didn't know where to comment for the ball contest, but this is more like a fan post. You guys are a blast to watch!
Getting this footwork right is a game changer for jumping higher and hitting harder. Question for you both, how much emphasis do you put on strength training for jumping higher? Are you squatting a few times a week?
I got a great advice for all of you learning the right footwork. I've watched this great tutorial a couple of months ago but still learned it the wrong way - even though I'm starting my approach with right leg I'm ending up also with right leg (causing wrong positioning, I'm right-handed and my right should is too close to the net, left shoulder in the back, totally oposite). The funny thing is that I've mastered this technique without the ball but when the ball comes into play I always do it the wrong way. It all happens too fast and it's hard to tell without someone filming you. BUT I'VE FIGURED IT OUT. The bros and Taylor tought us here to use 4 step approach and it's great but you have to start your approach JUST BEFORE setter touches the ball. When he touches the ball you already must have your right leg forward. So it's really 3-step approach counting from the moment the ball leaves setter's hand (please see the Batter's Box video: Riley there uses 3-step approach instead of 4! he stands in the batter's box and leaves it using sequence left-right-left). It might seem not that important but for me it made all the difference. My mistake was that I was starting approach JUST AFTER setter touched the ball, causing that I was already too close to the net and there was no time to make those missing 3 steps. There was only space for 2 steps, so for me in the end it was: 1(right)-left(2)-right(3). And again, it might look harmless but it's not so please remember: for this 4 step approach and right-handed hitter, when the setter touches the ball you've already made the first step which means that you right leg is in the front (now you're ready to leave the batter's box), then the ball leaves setter's hands and you have 3 (not 4) steps to make. Cheers.
I had the same problem, but now even when I start before the setter touches the ball I'm still having trouble on adding the steps along with having enough time to jump, although I'm really trying to mastery it. Also I need to work on my verticle SUPER badly.
Wow, you guys just helped me go from a mediocre player to a lady beast. Applied these tips in my matches tonight and my team jokingly accused me of being on PEDs. Thank you thank you!
Would love a video on dinks and technicality of illegal tipping! (My rec group keeps arguing about slappy/cutty open hand attacks that land short) Thanks!
Did you guys think about opening your own MCK Beach Volleyball Academy? You are so good at what you do. I'd be the first one to sign up. It's almost impossible to find a comprehensive BV training programs in LA. A couple of coaches that still train go by just giving an individual class here and there.
Great videos guys. The pointers are right on and were immediately helpful! By the way, I just realized that my hitting approach is goofy footed (left-right-left-right instead of right-left-right-left). Can you talk about the pros and cons of being goofy footed in sand? Karch was to have said that switching to being goofy footed on the beach made him jump higher, have better vision, and hit better cross court. If this is true, why aren't there more beach players who are goofy footed?
Make more videos about volleyball techniques or tutorials please. You are great teachers😁 Your videos helped to improve my Volleyball skills. Thank you😀
For me as a right hand hitter on the right side, I like to make my approach perpendicular to the net. On my beach the wind often coming off the water means that after passing the ball I step to the left so my setter has an easier hand set and the ball doesn't get to my left side where I have a difficult hit. Also by coming perpendicular the line hit or line over shots are more accurate. I believe these shots are even more important at lower levels when the blocks are not as effective as at a pro level.
Another great video! Very smart to break down hitting into multiple videos. It's hard to explain all the specifics of an approach in video but doing these individual videos gives more time to explain each step thoroughly and also for the viewer to "digest" the information in preparation for the next video and put it to use in the real world. I have my first King Of Beach doubles final tonight and plan on using all of this info for a win!
Great job guys, your tutorials are really helping me to improve my beach volleyball skills. Are you gonna do more videos with Taylor Crabb? He's amazing!
Great video, watched several times and hopefully will become habit. You mentioned 2 more videos with Taylor... Arm swing and vision of the set. Is the "how he sees the set" video in the works? Thanks for everything guys! Rooting for you far away from any beach!
Hey bros!An awesome vid! Could I have an questions? it looks like the jump is carried using both legs at the same time, it looks like 2 steps followed by lift off from both legs. Is it the case?
Juhu, i'm absolutely thrilled by your videos and the helped me a lot to develope and upgrade my technique. But i have a small request: some really motivated players are a little bit smaller than others. The dear god just gave me a size of 1,66m - what a lovely gift ;-). Do you have some advices for clever attacks, cause my punches are really feeble :-S
Great video guys. Is there a particular starting point that you recommend for the 3 and 4 step approaches? Is it something like 10 foot line for 3 step and 12 foot line for 4 step?
I wished I watched this sooner, I started like 2 years ago playing really casually and now I want to get better a lot. Unfortunately I did it all the way wrong (right handed player) and always went a big right step following a quicker left and than right step parallel to each other which will cause me a lot of time to get rid of.
Hey Beard Bros, My son and I went out yesterday to practice hitting, and videoed our session. When we got home and watched it back, we realized that both of us had our footwork wrong for right handed hitters (our approach was Left, Right, Left, Right)...what is the best way for us to correct it? Thanks!
Hello! Question: When you play at 4 (left) the steps are right-left-right-left. At the 2 (right) I guess is the opposite. But if you are right-handed doesn't this affect your body balance during the attack?
Great video! Do you guys keep your eyes in the ball during the whole approach or check the opposite court at some point? By the same token, it seems hard to pull the arms back right before jumping if you keep your head looking up (at least for me)
I see some players lift their feet up after their jump and somebody dont. Is there a technique for this? Lifting our feet obviously increases our hangtime... :)
If you think of our body as a slinky toy: imgur.com/gallery/GLJg82u .Gravity is not the only force at play. You also have the stored potential energy in the spring which is pulling the spring back together. This causes the bottom of the spring to move upwards at the same rate that gravity is pulling it down, making it seem that it just hangs there while the top falls down. The top being our hand.
I'm right-handed and left-footed, to me it feels unnatural to go right-left right-left so I go with the left-handed footwork but then hit with right...is this ok? is it wrong? are you disgusted from picturing this? please don't ban me from your channel🤓

Vertical jump training please 🙏
I think I’ve watched this like 700 times
Same but stiil can't do it
Same
@@manchesterisblue283 Can you do it now?
@@manchesterisblue283 Watching it won't make it work. You need to practice, that's the important thing.
The details of the videos I’ve watched by you guys so far have been top tier!
The gold standard on approach footwork. If you are serious about your game you will end up,watching this a bunch of times
Getting this footwork right is a game changer for jumping higher and hitting harder. Question for you both, how much emphasis do you put on strength training for jumping higher? Are you squatting a few times a week?

Just stumbled across your channel and you're doing amazing work. Straight to the point with a couple jokes, no bs. Keep it up!

My favorite video no doubt! Can’t get tired of watching it.

This video deserves an Oscar!

props to riley for comment about taylor not complaning about sets, hitters always cry about sets yet dont pass perfect everytime
awesome video... gonna try to make it happen as soon as it gets warmer here in Germany
This could not have come at a better time..I needed this visual breakdown. Mahalo guys!

Second that one! Keen as a bean on that video
Hey bros!An awesome vid! Could I have an questions?
it looks like the jump is carried using both legs at the same time, it looks like 2 steps followed by lift off from both legs. Is it the case?
I love love love the vids!! Thanks!
Any tips for improving timing? Sometimes my swing is slow, and the ball hits my arm. Any advice other than keep practicing?
Watch the other video by these bros called arm swim mechanics with taylor crabb
When’s the video on vision with Taylor coming :) great job on the videos!
How mad was Maddison when you guys skipped over his left handed explanations🤣
Wish I could here the explanation for lefties!
Been waiting all week! Really great, keep it up!
Where is the other video on vision/seeing the court and set that is mentioned at the end! Bring back the bug!
Did you guys ever release that video on vision and how he sees the ball?
Juhu, i'm absolutely thrilled by your videos and the helped me a lot to develope and upgrade my technique. But i have a small request: some really motivated players are a little bit smaller than others. The dear god just gave me a size of 1,66m - what a lovely gift ;-). Do you have some advices for clever attacks, cause my punches are really feeble :-S
thanks for the video guy. But where is the 3rd video i c'ant find it?
@@themckibbinbrothers haha thanks for the answer
Guys, have you done the court vision video already?
Hey guys does Taylor do private training? My daughter needs a hitting coach. Thanks
Did u guys post the video about vision on hitting the ball?
MCK Volleyball when =(
Great video guys. Is there a particular starting point that you recommend for the 3 and 4 step approaches? Is it something like 10 foot line for 3 step and 12 foot line for 4 step?

Can you make a video to how to jump height
keep em cominnnnn!
Love it fellas! Keep it Up! Good content and a barrel of laughs ;)
If I were to jump on my left leg but hit with my right arm would I still use the "right-handed" approach?
Love the videos! At 5'10" I hope to jump like Taylor eventually. What stabilizer do you use for your phone footage?
Thanks bro 👍
Thank you
Hey Beard Bros,
My son and I went out yesterday to practice hitting, and videoed our session. When we got home and watched it back, we realized that both of us had our footwork wrong for right handed hitters (our approach was Left, Right, Left, Right)...what is the best way for us to correct it?

Hello!

Left handed is: Left right Left right.
If You are not doing so....watch out!
You guys notice hiw big his arms is conpare to the arm mechanic video?
Great video! Do you guys keep your eyes in the ball during the whole approach or check the opposite court at some point?
By the same token, it seems hard to pull the arms back right before jumping if you keep your head looking up (at least for me)
MCKB Volleyball thanks! That makes a lot of sense
What exactly is going wrong on a hitter who hits deep. Or skimming the net
Awesome!
Hey do you guys know Eric Zaun? He’s my favorite player you should make a video with him:)
Great Clip :-)
Perfect!
How can i jump faster for volleyball
I see some players lift their feet up after their jump and somebody dont. Is there a technique for this? Lifting our feet obviously increases our hangtime... :)

This causes the bottom of the spring to move upwards at the same rate that gravity is pulling it down, making it seem that it just hangs there while the top falls down. The top being our hand.
If you watch Maddison's discussion of the left-handed player's approach (4:56-5:01) at 0.25x speed... yeah, it's just opposite of what Taylor said.
4:35
Disregard my last request comment about the timing and approach. But you can still wish me luck. Lol....Coach Jeff
How to increase jump...
2:16 Watch rileys #4
Love this! haha!
Taylor should do something with his hairs
lmao i was dyin watchin this
I don't get it... How do you jump in sand...
Jajajajajajaja ohhh yeah! You rock bros !!!
wow
The last clip ahahahaha
So I noticed that I am a right handed with left hand tendencies
Never Trevor 😂😂😂
Heeeeyy i’m a lefty why did you skip lmao
Turns out Madison can hit with his right and left
as a lefty could you just keep the part where they explain hitting as a lefty...
Except David Åhman, he Rawks at getting to the ball
I'm right-handed and left-footed, to me it feels unnatural to go right-left right-left so I go with the left-handed footwork but then hit with right...is this ok? is it wrong? are you disgusted from picturing this? please don't ban me from your channel🤓
Bruh 3 years too late but F the editor. Left hand gang lol
