When you take a bounce shot is there any way to get it to take a bigger bounce or to give it like a curve, Thanks

mgoalie21

when you want a high bounce, what you want to do is start with your arms up high when you shoot and as you shoot, drive your arms into the ground


to curve the ball, it is similar to tennis where you want to sort of turn your stick head so that it is almost parallel to the ground when you release the ball

btw, you can only spin the ball on turf or a pavement
it doesnt work on grass as well

just work on where you make it bounce

tennis and lax are so different, you cant put topsin or backspin on a lax ball and even if you could turf wouldnt work because its soft like grass and would absorb the spin. ytou can bounce the ball if the grass is worn in fornt of the goal and there are dried mud paches. if you bounce it there hte ball usually goes crazy because the ground is uneven and makes it bounce every where

It definitely works i do it all the time, more on cement then turf

also, if you get a warrior grip ball or brine championship ball, you can try spinning it in the air!! It is really cool, and annoying to the goalies.
