Vibora technique: left arm and body coordination

ViboraJan 5, 2025

Key takeaway from our Guru

How do I improve my vibora technique?

You must coordinate your left and right arms by using your left arm to reach out as if catching the ball before pulling it away. This movement ensures your body rotates fully and allows you to hit the ball in front of you with natural speed.

What this lesson covers

The coach emphasizes the role of the non-dominant arm to generate power and control during the vibora. The player must coordinate both arms, moving the left arm as if reaching out to catch the ball before pulling it away at the point of contact. This movement ensures the body rotates correctly rather than relying solely on the wrist or shoulder. Keeping the ball in front of the body is essential for maintaining speed and accuracy.

For the backhand volley, the preparation begins with the racket positioned near the ear. Keeping the swing compact and short allows for better control, especially when the ball arrives with pace. Following through toward the stomach helps maintain a consistent trajectory. These adjustments are particularly useful for players looking to increase consistency during net exchanges and transition play.
