Best of Adrian Carambula 🇮🇹 MR. SKYBALL! | Beach Volleyball World

The Italian Defender Adrian Carambula, who has played alongside Enrico Rossi since the start of 2019, has honed the serve to devastating effect on the FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour. Standing parallel to the service line, the left-handed Carambula fires the ball spinning high into the sky towards his opponents’ side, while using the conditions on the court to maximum effect. “The most important thing with the serve is to not tense up, to keep your body loose, keep your hands loose and just hit it up,” Carambula told fivb.com in 2016. “I think it is part of my game because it is different, and people don’t train against it. It is a movement that comes naturally to me. I feel the wind and then I let the ball and my arm do what comes naturally. It is not something I learned, it is something that came to me naturally.” The 32-year-old Carambula and 27-year-old Rossi have continued to enjoy using the sky ball since they teamed up for the first time at the 2019 Sydney 3-star, where they won silver. Enjoy watching the highlights of the most entertaining player of 2019! #TokyoHereWeGo #BeachVolleyballWorld

I love how the skyball disrupts everything and makes these pros look like a bunch of newbs.

[@marc3597]

I love this guy. His serve is brillant, but he is also a good defender...

[@syntaxusdogmata3333]

Man, that serve is merciless.

[@canefan12345]

This is my favorite beach volleyball player. I used to watch him play semi pro in the 2000’s in Florida when he was coming up. In those days, you were allowed to kick the serve and his sky ball was insane. You could see it from courts away, it looked like a rocket going into the sky.

[@jj52999]

The laugh at 0:38 onwards....😂😂😂

[@johnytabo754]

The dislikes are from my beach Volleyball trainers

[@javs1206]

This serve was created in Copacabana beach, Rio de Janeiro, in the 70's and made popular by Brazilian player Bernard in the 80's. Bernard performed it a lot in 1984's OG, making this serve famous worldwide. Bernard named it Jornada nas Estrelas, Brazilian title for tv series Star Trek.

funnier than the game scenes is the narrator laughing about it 😂

[@zrcst]

It’s super hard to return if the sun is out.

[@A_n_y_t_i_m_e]

I have my own version of skyball serve. It completely messes up the opponents positional awareness while tracking the ball.👌

The worst part in performing this serve is sky balling in the wrong direction. 😂

[@lupocci]

ahahah happened to me yesterday. Good laugh

[@8tonystark8]

Learn this serve from my dad in summer of 2000 It was pretty basic, so I was trying to make it better Crazy to see that THIS guy is famous for that serve... Where was he 15-20 years ago

[@UnicornrU]

Carambula is the only one using it at top level tournaments. Have you ever?

[@rickzane6433]

It's not fair, he is using his skills, physics and the wind to win.

[@shynessbreakthroughcommuni826]

That serve would be hard to return on a sunny day. Love the commenter's laugh when the Americans couldn't return his serves (though the Americans were already winning by a lot by that time already)

Yeah of course u had to remind everyone how great the Americans were...just let them laugh man

[@spin.chicken]

I didn't know it had a name. We used to do it a lot but we called it the hailstone.

[@joelwillems4081]

It seemed pretty useless against the USA at the Olympics when they defeated the Italians in straight sets. Maybe it was the overcast conditions so it wasn't lost in the sun or something.

[@MrBeatboxmasta]

wind affects it way more than the sun.

[@spin.chicken]

@@MrBeatboxmasta debatable. If the ball is straight up, where the Sun is located, it's almost impossible to receive (perhaps unless you have glasses). Otherwise if they have sunglasses or the sun isn't in the right position then, yes, I agree with you.

[@andrearesnati5120]

[@paolobernardo6107]

Os brasileiros inventaram esse saque tbm....Jornada nas Estrelas.

[@DjLevisN1]

[@Lexrezende]

Why do people choose to call it skyball serve? The original name, Star Trek serve is much cooler.

[@sendytupai4]

[@UnicornrU]

Because you need to watch upwards into the sky if you want to pass it.

[@riccardoguareschi193]

It’s not so great when he does it over and over again, most of the times sending the ball straight out or just gifting the opponent an easy return…I’ve seen it happening plenty of times. If you cut and paste a highlight clip it looks so great, but it is NOT!

[@hismikeness4840]

So you're telling me a highlight clip does not include bad plays? Someone call the media!

@@tuttiprofessori1957 è lo scopo di quella battuta, se tirata bene in caduta si sposta e, se hai anche il sole contro, è una rottura di cojotes da ricevere. Il problema è che su 10 battute riesci una volta a farglielo fare. Se fosse l’arma definitiva l’italia avrebbe vinto l’oro. Invece, tranne nei rari casi riportati nel video, viene ricevuta correttamente.
