Great video. Love solo drills videos because it’s so hard to find a partner to do drills with. It’s almost impossible to get a group to train with unless there’s a coach involved. Also, It’s nice to see teachers that see the benefit of practicing aggressive serving. I know to begin with it’s more important to consistently get the serve in, but getting the hang of hard to return serves can be practiced at any level.

Yes, I make more errors, but since I don't have the choice to do drills hardly ever (most all I play with just want to play, with no interest in improving their skill level). So, they just have to tolerate the additional errors during RECREATIONAL play.

Be mindful of where your paddle is facing at the point of contacts. That’s where the ball will go. Slow down your swing if need be to gain control and a sense of where your paddle is facing at contact.

Try the Louisville Slugger soft toss machine.. It has a "feeder" that sends a ball down a ramp and launches just high enough to hit.. I use it in my classes. It's a "baseball" item that works really well for Pickleball.. Cheap and easy to set up.. The other thing is for "targets" you can use towels to lay on the court and they're easy to see n hit.

pros and cons of drop/bounce serve vs hitting serve without a bounce.

@primetimepickleball

11 ай бұрын

Folks sometimes have an easier time with timing the ball after they let it bounce. If you don’t need that, I’d recommend using the volley serve. You can get a higher contact which is very helpful to hitting more impactful serves. If you watch the pros you’ll notice they all use the volley serve. The drills in this video are for self feeding for practice and not specifically for serving.

Hi Jordan, how do you feel about using a semi western grip for achieving top spin? I get a lot of top spin from it, but it does contort my body some and I have to be quick on changing grips. Do you think I should just stick with the continental grip?

Sharp angle...kind of. you still have to swing quite up and full speed not recommended. full swing produces more of a forward motion sending the ball in a straight line that is not conducive to landing short while still clearing the net.

Jordan, Is there a purpose in spinning your paddle 1 or 2 revolutions AFTER you toss the ball as you are moving to your ball contact position? It seems there is a risk in ending up with a slightly wrong grip at the time of ball contact. Your feedback is appreciated.

Just curious, is your two-hand backhand shot a preference or a necessity? If a preference, then why?

@primetimepickleball

10 ай бұрын

Two handed backhands are entering the game more & more. #1) it's easier to hit topspin on the BH with a two hander because you can have a later contact. Topspin is becoming much more relevant in the game #2) It provides more stability on defensive blocks & resets to have a second hand that is behind the paddle 3) Some players find it easier to attack with two hands because you're holding the left hand on the paddle as a FH and that can make it easier to generate power.

All good pointers. I see that you have a tennis style swing, both foreland and backhand. I also started in tennis many years ago when the topspin pros like Borg first dominated the game. I have always tried to hit with significant topspin, both tennis and pickleball. I am about a 4.0 player. Do you have any specific recommendations for topspin? Possibly a style of paddles?

Why do you twirl your paddle every 5 seconds? Is it just a habit, or is there some technique?
