This is the best video for hitting that I've seen (trust me I've seen a lot). You really broke it down, props to you

I second this. How you break down Taylor's demonstrations by looping and rewinding two to three second increments rather than doing a whole demonstration and replaying it is way easier to identify what you're talking about. This is easily my biggest qualm with most of the how-to videos out there: they show the whole thing normal speed, then once in slow motion, whereas I'd rather see the narration isolated and just looped like you guys did. Thanks a bunch. Hopefully I'll stop tearing my rotater cuff...

Practice it standing on the floor. Repeat the movements and learn them. Once you learned them star again, but jumping for spike. At first, do it without a ball to hit, and then add one when you are sure that your swing mechanics are good

same. when i jump i arch my back and lead with my hips, then when i swing i flex my back and push the ball from behind me to down. it worked at first but i hurt my back from overuse and now i’m trying to fix it because i can’t swing like i used to :’). moral of the story, if something’s wrong with your swing fix it early!! not just for productivity but to save yourself from potential injuries.

Wow I've been really hitting wrong all this time. Maybe thats why my shoulder feels like it's burning off after open gym, and that my friend who's jumps as high as I do, and around the same strength seems to just pound the ball so much harder than I do. Damn..... Thanks so much for the tutorial, great video. Time to retool my swing.

Too late I have a screw in my shoulder :(

Piking example is genius. I think people really confuse the two. GREAT VID!

After playing volleyball for 15 yrs this was a great reminder to re check what I was doing in my swing. Thank you for breaking it down properly and showing the bare bones. Your videos are great and have helped me get back into the game after my back surgery. Best of luck in the coming years guys.

This helped so much! I was taught a different way and my arm and shoulder would always hurt so badly after practice. Thanks so much! You guys not only are teaching great tips and tricks but also preventing people from getting hurt while spiking.

Hey, just wanted to say thank you for this video. I used to over rely on my vertical and pay little attention to other parts of a proper attack, and I am devastated when my knee suddenly lock up after a jump. Since I’m still waiting for results of my MRI, i can only play with protective gears that severely limited my vertical. It got so bad I felt like I might not be able to play volleyball anymore. Which is when I came across this video. Your explanation and slow mo broke it down so well I managed to fix my arm swing within two weeks. Just in time for my school tournament and managed to contribute to my team despite the injuries. I cannot convey how thankful I am, really. Thank you

This... I wish I had this 20 years ago. Surprisingly technical but clear explanation. I probably could’ve saved myself some injuries with this knowledge.

Been watching all your tutorials and get a lot of tips on how to improve my game.. sad to say im in my early 40"s but the passion for the is still there, im a small dude who wants to improve my setting skills, coz I can't jump high, neither can block the ball.. I was trained to be a libero then converted to setter.. thanks guys!

Stumbled upon you guys searching for vids of Taylor (went to school together), but got intrigued by your guys’ content and the fact that you both are pros and still dish out all these vids in your spare time. Really awesome to see. Def got a new long term sub! 🤙🏽

Thank you for this video! I've been trying to fix my swing for ages. Firing with the hip and using the right arm as a whip has been a game changer for me!

Dude you guys are so freaking awesome. I’ve been searching all day how to hit a volleyball because I lately started playing and you guys made it so simple and explained everything on how to make sure your safe and to get a better swing. THANK YOU SO MUCH

this really helped my hitting and serves really recommend these tips and i'm thankful that my jump serves have progressed this far

I can honestly say after hours of searching for videos on this topic, this is hands down the best video on how to hit I've come across!!!

Great video! Thank you guys for this free great teaching which makes many people HAPPY!

Im somewhat new to the beach volleyball scene and I keep rewatching this video to learn how to hit. Priceless information. Really glad to have found this channel.

You guys are the best. This video is so helpful! The camera angles make it so clear exactly how to perform this move. Thanks so much!

These brother's are great players, funny and cool. Great pointers!

Rewatching this and others in prep for start of 2s here in Michigan. The teaching is great, but what makes these the best is the commentary, joking around, and analogies.

I'm 53 years old and have been playing volleyball for over 30 years. The last 5 years or so my spike velocity has dropped off significantly. After watching this video, I thought I would try the "nike swoosh" technique. OMG, what a difference! I don't think I've ever hit this hard in my life. Thanks McKibbin brothers for doing this video!

This was such good information and my friends been bothering me with my grunts but it really helps me

You guys are the best. Love your sense of humor!

Fantastic video! Thanks for sharing. One thing I would recommend adding though is more explanation on the “how, where & why” to finish with the lead hand. After he pulls he gets it pressed to his body to prevent over rotation, giving him more control over the hit. A lot of kids will pull the lead hand down, but let it continue to dangle. I started emphasizing this a few years ago with the kids I work with and it helps keep them from taking that “statue of liberty” approach”” and it’s made a huge difference in helping them build those good habits at a younger age.

Thanks guys! My beach girls are going to love this. You did a great job in clearly explaining the proper mechanics.

Sometimes like now I'm so sorry that there's only one word for "thank you" and it's "thank you"😂 because I would like to express my gratitude with some more telling word. These videos really help me to understand how exactly to move my body, legs and arms because the explanations are clear and it's really useful that you mention how to prevent injuries. I'm 10th grade and have liked volleyball since maybe 8th grade and this year I'm part of the school volleyball club and I wish I have found your channel earlier because sometimes the teacher can't explain everything at once, there are other players too, everyone's on different level and she just can't advise only me. So this is like an individual training for me, respectively the part where you explained how not to injure the arm was totally on place because no more than 2 weeks ago I kind of began to spike really good and the trainer said that I make progress really fastly, praised me for improving well, so I thought that I have say so "mastered" the attack until the next morning I woke up with some pain in the right shoulder, few days after I even couldn't raise my arm and now I understand why this accident happened. I love watching compilations like this one kzread.info/dash/bejne/f35km5qicdXUoM4.html and I certainly noticed some of the things you mentioned in the video but when you explained it step by step and said what exactly is attained with every movement, together with the slow motion review it all made sense and everything became so... clear😯. Also it's great that the videos aren't too long, I get the point easily, having in mind that English isn't my mother language. In short thank you so much, greetings from Bulgaria❤

Thanks guys! I appreciate all the tips! Definitely going to implement them into practice and games

KatelynBrookeShow. How really it's working.....???? Plz say something...

Thanks McKibbin Brothers for useful content!

Love your videos! Been watching since you've started and I started rewatching again. I'd love to see you guys breakdown some games. Combine your tutorials within a game. Breakdown what you did right and wrong, starting with serve receive to setting to the batter's box to arm swing. Then to the defense of blocking calls, positioning, and the strike zone. Even what your mindset should have been during a frustrating game.

Goes IMMEDIATELY to my Favorites ! Thank you so much guys

This is my favorite video y’all have made so far! So good and so n point with every minor detail! Keep going MK brothers y’all got something going no else has touched yet!

Best instruction above this essential hit, I've ever been aware of. Thanks guys , and happy new year 2020

Fantastic video! Watch, try, watch, try - rinse, repeat until you get it working. I can say it about all tutorial videos. Love them because they are not only informative but also fun :)

Hey guys! Thanks so much for the tutorial here - it's fantastic! I'm using it to coach the grade 9 girls team about using their core while hitting, and the swoosh (swish??). Trying to give them good habits at the beginning of their VB career.. It's great to see the clear, instruction with the humour... Thanks!

Awesome commentary. Very educational as well as entertaining. Thanks for posting.

Great stuff! You guys rock. Can you talk about the wrist snap in the swing and any preferred contact point on the ball? I just recently learned to snap more and it’s been a game changer. Better angles, more power and saves the shoulder.

Good breakdown guys, particularly getting the elbow up, and the rotation of the forearm over the elbow😎

Great presentation and explanation of the mechanics of the arm action for the volleyball hit. I agree with the last comment . The best I have ever seen. Too many players drop the hitting arm elbow which reduces power, variability and increases the risk of injury. Thank you.

Great video and description of the arm swing mechanics - love it!

This video is awesome. Thanks for helping us. I'm about Taylor's same exact size so now I have no excuse for not hitting bigger.

This is amazing! It's impossible to lose interest through the video because you're so enthusiastic, and it is actually super easy to understand! Thanks for the tips guys :D

Thanks so much! I needed this for volleyball in gym. I know that sounds lame, but we play by regulation rules so i needed some help!

These are some great videos. I've watched like six of them in a row. Thanks a lot!

Ahhh I love these videos!! They honestly help so much!!

that was awesome! so far the best three beach vball videos I have watched.

Thank you! You have answered a lot of questions for me.

First time seeing a video and i gotta give you give you guys props, your techniques and explanations are awesome. Definitely gonna implement them in my game. Thanks

Great video guys! I will try it on my next game, tomorrow actually. Thank you so much!

This is very interesting, thank you for sharing this kind of informative information.

You guys are volleyball heroes. Thank you so much.

This totally changed my hitting thanks so much! I am also a huge Taylor Crabb fan now too :D

You guys are growing so fast!! Awesome content. Keep up the great work.

All these videos are just fuc**** GREAT!!! Thanks

Team Fletch Strikes again! Thanks boys....sharing this with my Warren Bears....love you guys!

1:01 DAMNNNNNN

Gonna give this a try next time I play! I've only been able to hit the ball like in the video twice and could never figure out what I did since it happens so quickly.

Best video ever to get understand my mistakes tooo...u guys r insane❤️

Incredibly similar to the mechanics of fast bowling in cricket. Great video!

Great video! waiting for another one and it can describe the power serve. As far as i understand the movement is pretty similar, but your jump may not be straight up^ but also forward, giving the ball even more speed

Thanks for this video, now it’s time for me go practicing

Thanks you very much guys for your help!!

Thanks dude this is really helpful

Your videos are awesome. You are helping me great. Thank you😊

great stuff guys, been searching for stuff like this on youtube for so long!

I'm gonna try this tomorrow thank you so much

You dont need to be big to be able to hit hard, it doesnt matter the sport, learning how to move your body and transferring the energy to the ball is the most important. I have a friend who is a gym rat, dude is swole af, weights 180 i think, im a skinny ass dude who weighs 140, and i hit 5 times harder than he does, because i have a better swing and loose, he is stiff when he swings.

You are absolutely right, what matters is how to transfer the energy. How to give momentum to the ball? Be your hand the fastest when hitting the ball. That's why the "mechanics" should start from your main body, then shoulder, upper arm, lover arm. Then right after the touch your wrist comes , to pull the hit down. It is like a cow whip.

Thank you so much!!! My spike's become much stronger after watching this video and training.

Thank you guys for the video i want to know more on how and when to jump to hit the ball i mean the timing.

I have used the "trebuchet" as the analogy for the arm and wrist. All straight at the moment of contact, with a fast wrist multiplying the velocity. Then of course, "thumb up" and "thumb down" to steer the ball (and hide it from bockers) instead of using your shoulder.

Great video with the exception of the high elbow. Best pitchers and volleyball attackers when they are "loaded" their elbow is not above the ear. Your example you can see Crabbe gets his elbow below the ear before "unloading"

so i'm 6'2, making me ever so slightly taller than the 'bug'. i've gotten into volleyball and this helped me so much. keep it up!

Gentlemen this is absolutely the best video explaining how to hit a volleyball. Thank you 😉

Thanks very much for doing this video

Great video set, thanks! Any advice you can give on creating a weight workout for my 13 year old daughter as an outside hitter?

Excellent! Now, talking about the ball position, where should a player hit the ball better, slightly charged to the hitting arm or right in front on the body center line, in front of the head? I've been wondering this for a while.

Thanks a lot... this is really gonna help me.. keep it up.. 😉😉

Does the counterweight of the heavy beard improve your head movement for maximum power convergence?
