The three step hold and throw. It is unbelievable how much holding is allowed now. Arriaga (dania) catches a serve in singles over his head deep in the corner and is allowed to take three steps away from the wall,wind up and throw a right side to the back.The server completly loses his advantage of making a good serve.I call it "freestyle jai-alai", anything goes nowadays.Also the amount of holding and looking where your opponent is on the court is on the rise also.To me this is dirty jai-alai. Zabala was a master of this,but he was allowed,never a whistle.
