RB Technique Myths

 

#7  Use the palm up toss to create some deceptive spins on your serves
False. The only deception is self deception, because it is very hard to control spins on a rubbery racquetball, see Myth #1.

Some pros we spoke with recommend the palm down toss to keep spins to a minimum and for a faster delivery. The only thing going for the palm up toss is that it does provide a little more time, but it can not make up for the disadvantage of a slow delivery.
 

#8  Squeezing your grip at contact adds more power and consistency to your shots
This is false because squeezing your grip at contact ruins your entire stroke sequence. Power and consistency are generated with a powerful wrist snap. A tight grip impedes this process.
