Stuff
A block that scores the point right away. The ball goes straight down on the attacker's side and never comes back to the blocking team. If one blocker touches it, that player gets a block solo. If two or more touch it, each one gets a block assist. In the gym, people also call this a roof.
Example
The pin hitter swings into a closed double block. The ball never crosses back to the blocking team's side. Point, block.

How do you get more stuff blocks?
Close the gap between you and the other blocker, then jump with the hitter's arm, not with the setter's hands. Seal the line or the angle you are responsible for, and get your hands over the net after the hitter swings.
