Video Not Working? Fix It Now
Jim Stone starts this tutorial talking about why he likes his setters to be good dancers. From there, he breaks down the setter hand-positioning and release that he taught in his 26 years as head women’s coach at Ohio State and that he continues to teach now as head coach of the U.S. girls’ youth national team.
Key points he covers:
The importance of big hands
Why he doesn’t get hung up on trying to make every setter’s technique exactly the same
Keys to a good release
Why a little backspin on a set is fine but front spin is not
