Brilliant video
Awesome Seb! I like the way you included coaching your students mistakes. It helps seeing it on someone else sometimes.
great! Totally agree!
Thanks Seb really enjoying your lessons. Realising that most amateur Squash players don’t allow enough access to their opponents
Very enjoyable style of coaching !!!
great video; I've been working on racket prep for 6 months and still struggle with it, but at least I'm aware of it.
Enormously helpful, Sebastien! Thank you.
great video...very interesting points discussed.....re: ancipating what type of boast is coming , as Terry Smith would say (famous UK investor)........"its amazing what you can observe when you actually bother to look"
nice one!
Fantastic instruction, very useful. Thank you! Subscribed!
Great feedback to the player and the results are obvious.
Nice one for me!
Thanks a bunch. Great commentary. Wish I could see the ball better.
Great video. Please make a video on the split-step and how to perform it (ex: while waiting on the T for the opponent to return a drop)
Hi Ryan, thank you for your comment, interesting topic you suggest, I will look into it!
very good videos very well explained, any video of tips to have better control of the ball?

You mean this?
Hi David, thanks for your message, I will think of something to help you, what are your struggles with controlling the ball? A certain shot or over all? In my experience this mostly has to do with balance..
@@squashoriginals2392 I still have a problem with my aim, sometimes I hit the ball badly and it doesn't go where I want
Hi coach, I really love your videos and have improved a lot watching them. I usually play with a very fit player who moves really fast on court cutting off all my length balls on the volley and playing a unreachable 2 wall boast if I use an attacking length. I have tried playing safe high shots but anything slightly loose gets punished. I really love the length you play and cannot figure how to do that. I either over hit the ball that sits up after reaching the back or underhit it causing it to land in the no man's land.
Could you please help me with a solo session practice and targets that will get me hitting like you :)
Thank you for the awesome videos you are a legend!!
@@shaileshandrade If your opponent is cutting off ur drives it probably means that you arent accurate enough. And if they can take your attacking length early on the two wall boast it prolly means the length accuracy is bad u want the first bounce to be on the edge or behind that service box line
My opponents usually use counterdrop after my boast, I observe this quite often, so I've started doing it too and sometimes it seems to give good results (if drop is rly good). Do you think this is a bad solution though and it's usually better to look for a wide/lob cross court and drive? Maybe it works but only at a lower level and if I'm playing with someone much better it won't work at all, like reverse boasts which I had to unlearn because it used to work for beginners and now it doesn't when I'm at a higher level.
Can really relate to this situation - would be great to get your thoughts @squashoriginals!
Hey Shusty I personally think the drop is a great shot to play after a boast because it works your opponent from the back corner to the front on the other side (across the entire court) . However playing a bad drop can definitely reverse the roles and put you under pressure. I would suggest playing that drop when the opponent plays a bad or just decent boast. When the opponent plays a good attacking boast I would suggest using a high lob to get out of trouble instead of forcing a mediocre drop shot. But I'm sure @squashoriginals will give you some good tips here as well!
I would use a drop when it is a quick boast (with speed) when it is a slower boast I would go deep. When it’s quick your opponent has less time to go back to the T. When the boast is slow, hold and choose straight or cross…..!
My opponent uses too much boats from the back of the court . Can you explain how can I control it, any technique of hitting the short at the back of court.
have you seen this video already? ua-cam.com/video/DnFFsrk-QaI/v-deo.html
Kindly explain how can three wall boast is played ?
Have you tried hitting the boast close to the body in to the side wall?
Can we return a ball by first hitting the side wall then front wall?
Yes, that is called a boast!
@@squashoriginals2392 thank you coach :)
