Excellent information! The cupping strategy on backhand dinks is a terrific technique to learn. Next time, please leave out the music. Your viewers want to listen to you, not to your music choices.

Super helpful thank you.

the hat throw on the missed dink was hilarious XD

Really well explained there. As a left sided player this is super valuable to learn. I’ll have to keep this in mind. So my two handed backhand is pretty reliable almost always. The one weakness I’ve noticed if I try to be aggressive and try to push my backhand dink cross-court to push the other left player back, it’s sailing on me. Virtually all left players are right handed, so now they have a juicy pop up to their forehand. Trying to get it under control. Given my partner a couple plastic tattoos because of it

music is too loud

Thanks James and Max!

Super valuable - best video yet jimmy 🙌🏻

Thanks for the strategy lesson!

Nice 👍

For this kind of drills, I would recommend wearing an eye protection.

James you are quickly becoming the best instructional pickleball provider! Good work

I am an IPTPA and have watched your video for players who don't have any tennis background. It is not that simple to throw the ball as if hitting an overhead and I am speaking about women who don't know how to throw a ball. Remember dads and fathers saying to their daughters, "You throw like a girl" so might be good to understand why women can't throw a ball like a man. It might be how our shoulders are built. I have not done a study on it, but had to learn myself on how to throw a football in third grade. My dad was a high school football coach. One thing I have done that has helped the girls I teach, is too place a hat backward on the girls heads and maybe slanted depending upon the overhead being hit. Have them take their paddle back behind their head and take off the hat with the paddle. "Knock your Hat off!" Then "Reach to the Sky" - whatever helps the player to hit an overhead. It is my opinion that most girls without tennis experience or throwing experience will hit a sidearm overhead or face forward without footwork. You're on the right track!

James!! You had like 7 kitchen line violations during those drills. Bad habits to practice! LOL

How do you avoid hitting it into the net on overhead slams?

Good ideas. My wife and I have been doing a similar drill for quite a long time. It has made her hands as good or better than anybody in her play groups. We’ll add these variations.

Go James, you will be #1 in the futrue!

who's the lefty knockoff Christian Alshon 🤣🤣🤣

Awesome was looking for new drills for the kitchen. quick question though, lets say you are hitting a hard serve, about what % power are you hitting the ball? im trying to emulate your serves and hitting at 95% power and i cant seem to keep the ball in.

Thanks James! Fantastic content as always. I’m going to incorporate this into my drills. I think this will better simulate a game situation than what I have been doing.

hey I know this place! I was there doing a different lesson at the same time! this is Lil' Rhody in North Kingston!

im using these tips fo sho.... free points are $$$

my left ear loved listening to this

Brother, just the other day I was slowing down your matches to emulate your serves. Thank you for the video! IGGY DOESN'T MISS !

The two inches matters a lot.. you can ask Ryan 😭😂😂😂

Been enjoying your vids and watching you play. Me and the wife are always curious about what the constant jumping you do when you're waiting on a ball is for and doesn't that make you more tired?

All drills are 2x better with trash talk

I liked this video over your minute'ish long videos. I liked seeing the drill in action a bit. as well as the discussion after the drill. what i really liked in the video was the give and take between you and ryan.

Great vid fr

Love that you didn’t edit this out. It’s good to see that even pros struggle with resetting all the shots in a drill

You are so on target. Great videos. I think your style of play is just ahead of the curve of this evolving sport. Keep them coming; you have a promising future in shaping this sport. Nice job!

PRESUMABLY...this is mostly for doubles, right?? You say, "little to no risk"...but if you're playing singles, he closes that paddle up and wins the point cross-court, right???

Great video, thanks! Left foot is "awfully close" to the line at :43 and :46 😁😁

Colin…Colin….😂

love the video. But the audio got a bit messed up.

I like all his videos and different ideas than some of the older pros.

Good stuff

Kid got balls!! J.I. standing next to him with humongous head

puhaha. like the ending.

Where does your partner go when they see you are about to Ernie?
