And those pics are physics...kind of sciency and stuff.

Just going to drop in a little science here to debunk the wrist snap myth...http://storage.proboards.com/2107859/t/5lW8ULmILSEL34b8Up9f.jpeg Seems like the last picture of top spin actually proves that wrist snap works. Hand contact under the center of the ball, yet somehow there is topspin and the ball arcs. This is the roll shot or "jumbo shrimp" of the beach game.

Go find something to do...all of you.

Go find something to do...all of you. I am. I am going to go in the gym today, and hit 100 balls. I am going to snap my wrist on all of them, but try very hard to make contact as close to the center as possible, and then count how many have no spin. I believe that number will be 0.

Regarding hitting the ball hard, the science is Newton's second law; Force = Mass x Velocity. Any volleyball swing theory that isn't founded in the science is destined to be flawed. Mass being the weight of the hand, Velocity being the speed of the hand at contact. The only question regarding wrist snap is whether the wrist can add speed to the hand precisely at contact. The obvious answer is yes. Wrist matters. Period.

Late to the game... forearm velocity it what makes it all happen. That and shoulder flexibility.

I prefer a topic on the "heavy ball." If two girls -- one named Wendy Weakarms and the other named Ogonna Nnamani -- hit the same ball at the same velocity, why is Ogonna the only one who is considered to have hit a "heavy ball"? Newtons Second Law of Motion. Force = Mass x Acceleration. If Wendy Weakarm has the same armspeed as Oganna, but doesn't hit it as hard, its because Oganna's hand Mass is bigger / heavier, and the result is she delivers more Force to the ball.

To get the mass right wouldn't you need to account for everything above the fulcrum (shoulder) not just the mass of the contact point?
