    Braydon, I think I can speak for all of us, when I say that no one has any doubts about your integrity. Proud of you for doing something to help the world, but if you ever want to do a signature paddle that will help you and your channel thrive? No one will have any problem with it.

    My son and I had the opportunity to meet you at the Red Rock Open a couple of weeks ago and we both agreed that after meeting you that you are not just one of the best guys in pickleball but one of the nicest guys in the world and this podcast just echoes that. My son and I always try to support you in any way we can and I can't wait to see the new custom PE paddle. I'd love to pick one up to get a great paddle and to support a great guy! Keep up the great work!

    Hi, Braydon
    Just wondering...why are you playing with the 14mm versus the 12mm Paddletek in the tournament? Wouldn't the 12mm give you more of the offense you want or do you fund it just too hard to control?
    Do you have a discount code for it?

    • @pickleballeffect
      @pickleballeffect  6 місяців тому

      The 14 is big on the power too though the 12.7 does have more pop and finishing power. And the 14 was just the one I had used more before the tournament ha. Playing more with the 12.7 this week. And yes, my code 10effect works on Pickleball Central’s website and they have them all in stock.

    One thing Christian missed about the film study is all of the speed ups are bad speed ups because they come from too low of a location meaning the ball is still going upwards when it gets to the opponent giving them an easier counter. He should have advise just not to take those speeds ups and instead aggressively dink to set up a better shot

    You are out of position and off balance when speeding up. To be more offensive you want to put your opponents off balance and out of position and the pops or bad speeds will come to you. Move your opponent around and that will happen.
