    Great exercise for much better footwork. Where I see a lot of problems is that other players have poor anticipation of where the opponent is going to hit so that they are often caught flatfooted. I mentioned to my doubles partner last week is that I am often looking at how the opponent is setting up and actually, if I have time, hitting the ball and coming off the racquet. He was actually stunned that I could do that. I told him it helps me anticipate where the ball is going so that I can "get a jump" on where I should move to set up to return the ball. To me, anticipating the direction is a big key to success.

    It is one thing to say players should flow around the court like Roger Federer, it is another thing entirely to have the physical capability and proprioceptive ability along with the tennis specific agility skills to do so.

  • @liimey87
    @liimey87 Місяць тому +1

    Watching footage of the pros, there seem to be scenarios where the pros do this (land on the outside foot only, while pointing/leading with the other foot), and then other scenarios where they specifically do not (so, landing neutrally on both feet first). Are there knowable situational factors for what is leading them to using one vs. the other?

    • @EssentialTennis
      @EssentialTennis  Місяць тому +1

      The pattern I've noticed most often is the more trouble they're in the more likely the outside foot is to point on the way down.

  • @bucknut2000
    @bucknut2000 Місяць тому

    i dont get it vs a standard split step. They just time it better is all im seeing and they recognize the ball earlier so there no hesitation.

  • @JoeEngineersThings
    @JoeEngineersThings Місяць тому +2

    This is what a ‘split step" is supposed to be. What is commonly taught is almost as bad as doing nothing.

  • @kevincostelloe4006
    @kevincostelloe4006 Місяць тому

    Im a bit skeptical that this is actually a technique you can practice. It seems to me that its more of a natural result of great anticipation. You split step then recognize the direction while you're in the air and then start the process of moving in that direction which by necessity, begins with planting the appropriate foot. If youre just a bit slow in your recognition or miss time your jump, you'll land on both feet which is what usually happens to average tennis players. Btw, add in the slide and really good tennis players barely touch the ground which helps with their endurance. They just don't expend as much energy fighting gravity.
