Floater

CUVC Volleyball GlossaryCUVC Volleyball Glossary
A float serve. When hit without spin, a volleyball will deviate unpredictably (or "float") in flight as it reaches a critical velocity. Good float serves are notoriously hard to pass. The advent of coloured balls has enabled passers to see when a ball is served without spin, and therefore helps them to predict when they are about to shank the ball.
