Sorry as I am sure this has been discussed but I could not find it after about 15 minutes of searching. I am wondering how the heck to get riseball spin with IR. Are they not opposites?

My DD does not end up palm down after her rise ball, she often ends up with her palm at probably forehead level or higher, almost what you'd picture for hello elbow. It looks as if she is pointing at the batter initially after release and the force takes the arm up all the way to what most would think is a great H/E finish. Her rise generally had a good tilted back spin like what JJ described above.
Thanks JJ, I'm starting to get it. I am trying it myself though and in full speed it seems the rise ball with IR mechanics will be a wicked tough sequence on the wrist.
