Question
which hit is illegal in volleyball?
bump, using your forearms to strike the ball
carry, using open palms to lift the ball over the net
set, using your fingertips and quickly extending your arms to hit the ball into the air
spike, using the palm of your hand to strike the ball in a downward motion over the net
In volleyball, a "carry" is an illegal hit. The rules state that the ball must be struck, not caught or lifted. Using open palms to lift the ball (carry) violates this rule. A bump (using forearms), set (using fingertips and extending arms), and spike (using palm in a downward motion) are all legal hits when done correctly.
