    Curve spin

    Curve spin

    I wanted to bump this thread. My daughter is 12 and learning the curve ball. She is being taught the "palm up" curve ball but, in reality, it is a corkscrew curve ball. Does a true palm up curve exist? Any video of it?

    Rev fire numbers

    It makes sense that there are less RPS measured on the RevFire with increased speed due to the fact there is less time for the ball to rotate. However, I'm unable to figure out if the ball is rotating at the same speed, what is the drop in measured RPS on the Revfire given an increased...

    Nunya, your question is here.

    Thanks for the detailed answer. You are right. She tries to muscle the ball with her shoulder at times. She has been practicing with taking a step back after the pitch and this has helped.
