Jordan, thank you by starting with naming the players. I love your use of slow motion, your highlighting of the ball and the paddle head and replaying the same section several times talking about different aspects. Also your defining of terms was helpful. Great delivery of content. Thank you for your thoughtful, detailed content.
Thanks Daisy !
I think that Daisy stated things so well there’s nothing more I can say. Great job and thank you for choosing to use your talents to help others.
Great video as always. Would love to see more of the high level point break downs. Excellent job with the multiple camera angles and rewinds while you discuss the shot. Thank you👍🏻
Thanks!
Yes, please do more of these point breakdowns. SUPER helpful!
Thanks Tyler!
Jordan, I have watched just about all of your videos which are great but this one was out of the box fantastic! This was a compilation of just about all the situations you have coached in prior videos. I really liked how you continued to rerun each shot with incredible breakdown!! Wonderful!! Dr Bob
Thanks!!!
This is a great breakdown. I like that the commentary speaks of each players positioning on the court and paddle height. Best of all is how you show each play over and over in slow-mo so that an observer can really see all the little details that you are pointing out. Excellent video. Hope to see more of these high-level breakdowns. Thank you.
Thanks!!
Jordan, great video! The editing and commentary were very useful, emphasizing how only slightly less than ideal positions and technique can result in a point or sideout. Please do more!
Thanks Martin!
More videos like this, please! So helpful 👍
Thanks Diane !
excellent breakdown, love this kind of analysis i'm a 4.0 trying to advance and this really helps. would like to see the same point except with a third shot drive, fifth drop, or maybe a shake and bake planned in advance. also im suprised pesa didn't shift over to keep the middle less exposed, you commented on it, but i would have expected more shifting in general
Yes, after looking at it I was a little surprised too. Although this is breaking down one point in a match without the full (game) context. So it goes without showing previous points.
Excellent format for this content. Love the slow mo!
Glad you enjoy it!
this breakdown is really helpful. thanks Jordan
Np !
Jordan, this is one of the BEST videos you've given us! Thank you! Please, more like this!
Awesome! 👍🏻
GREAT VIDEO! We've all seen videos on dinks, resets, defense, drives, attacks and court position. This analysis puts it all together into one video that's easy to watch and understand (even if we can't all play at that level) because everything is in context. This may be the best and most informative pickleball video I've seen. THANKS!!
😎😊👍🏻
I'm really digging these strategy breakdowns! Keep em coming!
Thanks! Will do!
Being fairly new to pickleball, I really appreciate Jordan's well explained techniques and strategies. I have elevated my play considerably since watching Jordan's videos
Thanks so much!!
Awesome breakdown. Love how you highlight the myths (paddle height) and add practical tips (looking for your opponent to lower paddle for an attack).
Thanks Alan!
I've been a big fan of your videos for years this one was definitely one of the best informative and educational, more point breakdowns would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks Kevin!
Really enjoyed this video because it depicts real situations. Hope to see more like this one.
👍🏻
This is excellent, I'm going to watch it several more times!
😊👍🏻
Excellent video!! The slow motion analysis is very helpful to see the foot and paddle positioning. It’s so hard to pickup details in live action. Do more videos on mid court defense and maybe one on at the net “fire fight” strategy
👍🏻👍🏻
This was incredibly helpful! Breaking it down to every thing that happens in each hit was eye opening. Please do more of these!!
Thanks Bonnie !
Jordan, excellent, excellent excellent. Point breakdowns are powerful. Thanks!
Thanks Jay!
Jordan. I love all your content. These recent video breakdowns have really helped me strategize rather than just win the point. It also gives me more confidence in a match. I hope you make a billion dollars on your channel!!
Haha, that would be great! 😉
Such a great video. One of the best as far as breaking down each aspect of the rally. Love the slow-mo of each shot and your explanation of court/body/paddle positioning. This is one of the best I've seen. I'd like to see more of this exact type of rally because each one is different. I'm only a 3.5 player, and it's so helpful to see how upper-level players handle a rally. Great job.
Thanks Ginny !
Some good insights into the thought process/strategy. I think it's worth discussing disguising shots and staying unpredictable. Great video and those were some perfect reset drops.
Thanks Mike !
Great camera positions and slo-mo analysis, Jordon!
😎
Very Good--the breakdown and repeatedly going back to review what one player is doing and how the others are adjusting or not--I found this format helpful--thanks
Thanks!
Jordan, love your breakdown of the nuances of decision making, strategy, and finding those attack opportunities in a real game. Also your video production is so good lately!! Great camera angles and super clear high-res video. That makes it so watchable and with you in the window illustrating strategy, perfect!! Other channels have just ok video, appreciate your attention to detail and quality!!
Thanks Tony!
Thanks for pointing out that the receivers partner needs to keep his eyes on the ball. I see a lot of games where the partner just stares into the other court, oblivious as to what's happening behind him.
What's with the paddle spinning in the middle of rallies?
Old tennis habit
Yes! More of this!
😊
Jordan so appreciate your videos. Thank you!
Thanks!
Love the format
👍🏻
Great Video. love the slow mo shots. On the down the line passing shot that requires a lot of touch and is risky super easy to miss long.Joes reaction to me looked like he thought it would be long as he didn’t lunge for it. Earlier it looked like you had a high enough ball and both opponents were towards the edge giving room to split them down the middle and force them to try to half volley it probably weakly setting you up for something cross court in the space they left.
As a player in my 60s I try not get engaged in long rallies but try to take advantage of every opening to try to win the point, longer rallies the more chances I get mess it up! It also helps me learn things not to do by playing up a level where strategy comes in more and power slamming not as much. I always learn something from your videos so thanks for taking the time to make them.
Thanks Edward!
Very good video showing critical shots with the breakdown. As far as learning the game it does not get better than that. Great job.
Thanks so much!
like this type video because I am able to see the shots at slow speeds and also better see different options for placement
👍🏻
Thank you for this great breakdown. I'm a new player and this is great content for beginners. Keep up the awesome work 🙏🏽
Thanks!!
thank you so much for this!!!!! It helps and explains a ton!!!!
👍🏻👍🏻😊
Great video as always,thank you for sharing this ❤
Thanks for watching!
This is exactly what I need to get me thinking about strategy - more of this please!
Thanks!
Great job on the breakdown, Jordan. The slow motion and stop action is very helpful. I wish my brain could do that during a game!
Lol thanks!
That is awesome watching the shot progression at this level.
One thing I would be interested in, and I know it might not be possible... is to take a 3.0 level shot progression and compare it to what the players "Should" have done shot-wise.
👍🏻
Love this format
Thanks!
Very helpful video. Loved learning how to 'move' by watching - my shuffles are a bit jumpy. Got to see keeping your head down during contact!!! WTG!
😊👍🏻
Good walk through. So many aspects of your other videos present in this one point.
Thanks Benjamin !
Much rather watch the slow motion breakdowns than full speed matches or full speed breakdowns. So many opportunities for tip giving in these segments. Would even like to see lower level breakdowns because not all of us are 5.0. Very helpful
Cool!
Thanks Jordan, alway excellent content. Can you show doubles playing strategy examples i.e. Shake & Bake, "I" formation, and any other types of doubles playing strategy? Thank you!
👍🏻😊
Love it, Thanks!!
😊👍🏻
Jordon, your training Video’s gets better and better. Good job 👏
Appreciate the time you put into your work.
Thank you
Thanks for the comment!
I keep doing what the guy did right before the last winner. I hit a shot toward the sideline nearest to me and then I stand there and watch it, instead of shifting over towards that sideline. Good to see it happen to someone else -- now to fix it tomorrow...
👍🏻👍🏻
Jordan at around 8 min you talk about it not being necessary to have your paddle up so high in the ready position, but then when you speed it up, watch how much your opponents paddle has to travel upwards to make contact with your ball. Interested to hear your thoughts
He could have had a little bit higher paddle position, but either way I think the spot that I hit was perfect, and would have still been tough. You are right though, at the kitchen line maybe a bit higher paddle position is better, in transition, a lower paddle position is ideal.
Jordan, WOW.........that was great! I watched that four times in a row and picked up something new each time. I could watch analysis like that all day.
😊😄
Love the point breakdown, strategy tips and the slow motion so I can see paddle angles.
Thanks!
Great video!!
👍🏻
Nice , Thank you
Np!
Excellent!
🤙🏼🤙🏼
Good info and very helpful because off the slowmo replay and explanation 👍👍
Thanks Ron!
Yes, more video analysis of a single point BUT at various levels not just 5.0.
👍🏻
Jordan- you are the best instructor! I tell all my students to subscribe to your channel.
Thanks!! 👍🏻
und it very interesting and helpful!
Thanks!
Superb!
🤙🏼
Thank you for the play by play breakdown. Great video!
Thanks!!
Great, more point break downs! Your point breakdown videos are the best learning tool. How can we get you to do more. Maybe $
Yes that would help lol. 😊

Thanks Bill !
Love this content
Thanks!
@@BrionesPickleball these breakdowns really highlight all the different aspects of what goes on in high level play. Does a great job of summarizing all of the other things you discuss in your videos. Thanks again man!
Great video
Thanks!
Excellent video. Great information. Can you do a similar breakdown of a longer high level dink rally explaining the thought process the players had and maybe where you think they should have done something different? It would be extremely helpful to me. Thanks
👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for the detailed breakdown. Learn a lot from the video.
Thanks Ed!
LOVE THIS!!! Love the breakdown with the slo mo critique..... Pretty work Jordan!!! MORE PLEASE!!! LOL
Thanks Bob !
Excellent commentary on play, thanks for describing the action and walking us thru!
Thanks Steve!
Can someone clarify for me: the 3rd shot drop was great; however, I've noticed that when I hit a nice high and deep 3rd shot drop, the returning side will take one to two steps back, giving up some ground at the kitchen in order to drive the ball right back with heavy topspin. Any nuances here to look for? Thanks!
This is very common, your drops may be landing too high or too shallow.
I would suggest lower to the net drops landing near the NVZ line
What is that quick paddle spin you do after a backhand dink. The Dylan Frazier tick? 😂
Probably wouldn’t catch that on a full speed video. But seriously, I did pick up some pointers as well.
Lol I did it WAY before Dylan 😊
Excellent video. I’m probably a 4.0 coming from tennis and the tip to keep the hands lower at the net was counterintuitive but makes perfect sense. Saves time for setting up a dink or reset. Obviously when playing against weaker players, their balls will end up being higher a lot of the time so the need for low hands is reduced. Can’t wait for my first 4.0 tournament. Only have been playing pickle for three months. Addicted.
Awesome!!
This is the BEST type type of video for the 3.7-4.0 player to learn volumes on how to position, attack, block, reset etc. Perfect learning tool. Please keep 'em coming!
Thanks !!
Thank you for this video. Love the point breakdown videos. It's so difficult to see the nuances while watching a fast-paced match! The slow motion and concise, clear language without PB slang are also helpful!
Thanks Molly!
Excellent explanations and examples. Illustration and commentary work well together especially in slow motion. Thank you muchly!! I spend hours watching and listening to your guidance.
Thanks so much!
I love the point break down and rerunning the point from each player's perspective. Too many videos are done in real time and it is next to impossible to see the details. This video showed real time, then a break down in slo-mo and highlighting of player position, paddle position, and openings (when the error was recognized by the players). Thank you for the well put-together video. I will definitely be watching more
Thanks!!
I assume on a speedup (at least for a backhand) that you do not change your grip. Instead you lead more with your wrist is this correct? I'm kinda new but I get a lot of the placement strategies, I just am not consistent enough. I also don't think I've ever hit a speed up shot well especially from the backhand.
Depends what kind of backhand shot, but if you are hitting a backhand topspin shot from below the net, you will lead from your wrist.
Awesome. What I would love to see is a video dedicated to tennis players transitioning to Pickleball. As I mentioned about the drop shot in tennis (better drop shot lands closer to net and lower over net) whereas in Pickleball as you mentioned in the video this isn’t necessarily the case.
And just other tips for tennis players regarding what translates and what doesn’t translate to Pickleball. I like how your instruction (technique) is similar to tennis because I still play both and don’t want one sport to mess up the other. But I think the tactical aspect is where it differs which is where I would be interested in learning. Thanks!

Random question: I have strained both calf muscles in the last 6 months and tweaked one last night. I stretch before I leave to play as well as when I get to the courts. I wear babalot shoes as well. Can anyone recommend anything to prevent future strains/pulls? Also, take electrolytes before playing.
That sucks! Talk to a PT !
This is a great breakdown. I like the commentary and the stop action, checking on where everyone is standing. Ooh, see how Joe didn't shade to the line in response to which opponent (Jordan) was going to hit the ball. And high ready position of one's paddle at the net doesn't apply when opponents can flip a roll volley with topspin downward from just below the top of the net. Where they are holding their paddles before Jordan's BH roll volley when they see his paddle head drop down in prep? between waist and knee.
😊👍🏻
I found this point breakdown very helpful as well! I appreciate the slow motion and highlighting of the paddle positioning. I would like more of these types of videos. Thanks for being a great "coach"!
👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent video. Thank you. I somewhat disagree, however, about keeping the paddle down at the net. I think the paddle should be higher, ready to take a fast ball. Joe proved that theory when he had to chicken wing and pop up the ball because his paddle wasn't up. Of course your excellent shot at him had alot to do with that too!
The chicken wing had nothing to do with paddle position. Watch more pros play, they will keep their paddle in a low position.
Matt Wright, Aj koller, Ben Johns, Collin Johns, etc
I’m only 4 minutes in but I learned something that I’ve been wondering about which is the drop. Of course in tennis, the closer it lands to the net (and lower over the net) the better. But I see this isn’t necessarily the case in Pickleball.
Yes!!
i am just starting to get better at playing but my weak link seems to be protecting the middle line...if you could link me to a video or do a new one on this defense, it would be greatly appreciated...Thanks Jordan
👍🏻
I have watched hundreds of pickleball tutorials including yours (Briones). This was the best one I have ever viewed.
Cool thanks!
The slow motion is super helpful. This is a great video because you cover ball clearance, paddle position and footwork on each shot that changed the point. Thx
😊
Is it a good idea to twirl the paddle between every shot, or, is that just a bad habit? Thanks.
It’s a habit. I haven’t taught anyone the paddle spin yet lol
Great video. Very helpful. Would it be possible for you to show/discuss when the third shot should be a drive rather than a soft shot into the kitchen?
Thanks!
Congratulations on moving your family from California to Arizona, just received your letter about your one year anniversary.
Thanks Peter!!!
Thanks, Jordan. Another fantastic video! A suggestion for a future video, an emphasis on right and left handed players successfully partnering. I’m a lefty and sometimes see how some right handed folks aren’t quite comfortable if they haven’t played with lefties much before. What are the advantages, potential stress points? What to leverage, what to watch out for? When to consider stacking or not. Use respect the X? etc…
👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent Video! Love the in-depth breakdown on each aspect of the play. Very informative.
Thanks!
Hi. A beginner pickler here. At 4:26 could your opponent poach the ball to take advantage of the exposed middle?
They couldn’t in this instance because the ball was too low.
Jordan this is great. I’m glad u did something like this. Nice and slow and easy to understand. Breaking it down is the best way to go.
Thanks Chris!!
Do you think you would have had a slightly better time taking the 3rd shot drop off the volley instead of letting it bounce?
Probably not. It was a very tough ball, just like the last volley dink Craig hit in this video.
First time commenting, why doesn't your partner move to his left when your lunging to the left?
Technically, he should (and I think I mention it), although at higher levels, he’s expecting me to hit a good dink and anticipating that ball to come back cross court. Either way, my partner in this scenario is fast and quick enough to cover a fast ball down the middle. This is why he can do this.
Love the frame by frame with detailed analysis. The first time I've seen you use it, keep it up.
Thanks Wade!
Superb breakdown and analysis of the different aspects of the point. More please.
Thanks ! 🤙🏼
Yes, the comment is very helpful! Thank you for walking us through the play.
👍🏻
Great video! Love slow motion analysis. Going to keep paddle low, keep wide stance when I pop it up
👍🏻👍🏻
You're pretty far off the line on the first attack. Would you want to be closer if you replayed this pt?
Maybe. I’ll try to point that out in detail next time.
Great video lots of good advice. Now if I can only remember things as I play.
👍🏻🤙🏼
