Yes Jim it is one of the most difficult shots in the game. Anytime you throw a right side anything sidearm into the side wall, the spin on the ball tends to make it angle back inwards. That is why the sidearm carom has to have the element of surprise. Otherwise, you are toast. Whenever a froncourter throws a right side rebote the opponent is cautious of the hook into the side wall. So most of the time the opponent is looking for the mistake right side rebote carom. Unlike Apperi, not many can throw it good enough to use it as a weapon.

My only question is, when Robertico throws it, is it a mistake???
