The fans are so close to the action. None of that loud music. The venue is a character in all of this. The crowd reactions make this even better. The Golden Age of Beach Volleyball. The players are into it.
Yes, the court was 30x30 back then. There wasn't any let serves or antennas, & you couldn't touch the net. It was a much easier game for smaller players back then.
I got hit like that once by a guy who, needless to say, didn't hit 1/10 as hard as Stokie, and I was down for the count. I can't even imagine Fro's pain, or how he got up so soon.

Becuase they actually had something to play for. No money in it now. Not enough on the line
I think it was after this season, Frohoff was asked what he was looking forward to in the future. He said, "I hope Karch doesn't dump me."
I was there. Great memories
That is my all-time favorite rally. That rally sums up the greatness of Smith/Stoklos.
7:58 - 8:30 is why I love this sport!!!
7:58-8:30.
Karch - the Man who would be King !!
All time amazing

Also handsets and doubles on anything except a hard driven ball were called religiously. And no rally scoring. Stamina was stressed.
You have to see the hit @40:40. It is brutal! lol I love the commentary afterwards.
