Interesting! Kinda hard. This has to do with COB and staying in the center of the stage. I'm not quite sure what to do with my hands - you're supposed to reach and flick to catch the balls and toss them upwards. There is a trick that I haven't figured out yet. I know not to over-extend arms or reach far. Need to keep them more at waist height. Might need to watch some YouTube videos to figure this one out.
