Re(5): #359 - Can you, literally, 'throw a chula'?

Posted on August 6, 2010 at 09:16:25 PM by benny b

All the backcourters with good reverses, Art, Pedrouso, Soroa, Larrea, Acin, Daniel, Irastorza and too many to mention here would throw every left side in an attempt to hit the chula. That is really the only offensive shot for a backcourter from the left side. Not everybody can hit the back wall at will and some backcourters will not try for the chula from a deep position because if they miss they feed the opposing froncourter.

But two things are for sure, every backcourter loves to see his opposing backcourter with his butt in the corner trying to stab at the ball because everyone in the building knows it's not coming out (because it's rolling), and my buddie Robetico is full of himself...
