Ok, I'll add some more in. Hitori may be younger than the others, but he has one of the most valuable assets: experience.

While Suika and Sinclair went to the Academy, Hitori had hand-on experiences and training with actual Hunters and actual missions. This already gives him knowledge on different fighting styles. As Hunters not only fight Grimm, he's fought other humans/Faunus. While Sinclair and Suika use their own styles, Hitori has seen styles similar to them in the fights he's been in. And he's been doing it for EIGHT years, which has been half his life. And in eight years, you can go to a lot of places. Eight years of Huntsmen duties brings Hitori to all over Remnant, from Vacuo to Atlas. Just from this alone, he already knows how to fight in a sandy environment, and how to use it to his advantage.

While we're talking about a sandy environment, let me remind you of how sand does restrict movement. And restricted movement means an easier target for Hitori's tendrils. And adding Dust to the mix will only add unto the damage to Aura. And let's not forget you're going to use a lot of Aura to prevent from getting impaled.
