Core sequence

How to serve consistently

  1. 01

    Set your target

    Choose deep corner, short seam, or body serve before the toss.

  2. 02

    Toss cleanly

    Use the first click to create a predictable contact height.

  3. 03

    Aim with camera

    Small camera changes matter more than last-second movement spam.

  4. 04

    Strike the meter

    Use maximum power only when the landing lane is still safe.

Common errors

serve mistakes to fix

  • Serving at full power without aiming
  • Changing camera direction after the strike window starts
  • Always serving to the same receiver
  • Trying to ace instead of creating a weak receive
