Answer:

A procedural memory

Step-by-step explanation:

Procedural memory is a type of long term memory involving how to perform different actions and skills. It is the memory that has to do with how we get things done over time for example driving a car, typing fast on the keyboard, e.t.c. the reason why Ral couldn't put to words how to slice the ball is that is is a procedural memory that aided the process of him knowing it and it unconsciously save the abilities over time so it's always hard to explain.
