Rapid-Fire Resets: Soft Game Into the Kitchen
Summary
Cincola’s second Titan rapid-fire drill targets getting to the kitchen with soft resets. Put the machine in kitchen-dink right (or left), raise it on the volley stand so feeds come on a downward angle, and use a height range so some balls must be taken out of the air and others bounce.
That mix forces the real decision — volley vs bounce — while you practice absorbing pace and moving forward. Getting to the kitchen line is the goal; the height variance keeps the drill game-realistic.
Key takeaways
- Raise the machine over the net for downward feeds
- Height range creates OTA vs bounce decisions
- Goal is soft resets while closing to the kitchen
Action items
- Run one set kitchen-dink right and one left with the same height range
- Count how often you choose the wrong take (OTA when you should bounce, or vice versa)
