The boast is a fantastic option to utilise space at the front of the court, particularly for those who lack confidence in their short game. It's also a really useful weapon on warmer courts where putting the ball away can be more problematic.

This is even more useful for low level players who use the boast with the intention of winning the point rather than (mostly) hoping to gain better court position. Even the examples shown in this video show well executed boasts but the opponent often gets to it with enough control to play a fairly good shot. At my level a good boast can win a lot of points, at higher levels I imagine you have to be a lot more careful and use it sparingly.
