poke/pokey
When a hitter decides to poke a ball they close their fist and turn it sideways so they can use the knuckles of their pointer finger and middle finger to "poke" the ball over the net and over the block, guiding it to an open space on the opposing team's court.
tomahawk
Cover your right fist with your left hand then raise your arms above your head to control the ball contacting it with the outer edges of your hands now balled into fists. This is how to tomahawk a ball.
Elbows stay at 90 degree angles and as you push your clasped fists towards the ball (towards the ceiling) similar to what you'd do to extend your arms to the ceiling if you were setting...control your arm movement to the ball so that the ball goes up high in the air between you and your intended target.
cutty
--a cutty or a cut shot is a ball contacted by a hitter on its side panels in order to redirect it so its hit at a sharp short angle into the opposing court by a spiker.
joust
A joust in volleyball occurs when both a blocker and a hitter contact the ball when its above the net, at the same time.
