Great video Jesse. Obviously for the purpose of the drill and moving into the back corner, we use the rugby ball shape. However, if our opponent hits a loose drive and we want to instead hunt the volley, should we still start to move in the rugby ball shape directly after our split step, and then adjust our movement to step across/forward to take the volley around the mid-court area? Or is there a different movement pattern we should use directly after the split step, in that situation? Against certain opponents, particularly hard hitters, I find myself being passive rallying down the wall, just moving into the back corner and missing out on opportunities to volley a slightly loose ball.

Great point and planning on some videos on this soon. Simply if the ball is loose move across or stay in position, engage the wrist quickly, and don’t over complicate it but rather get the racket onto the ball in the most efficient way possible to starve your opponent of time and options. Thanks for the support. Lots more coming. Please share around. Thanks.
Hopefully the video shows you this and takes time to get it right. Simply you transfer from the back foot through to the front foot using your bent knees and the momentum of the hop. Feel free to send in a swing audit for me to help.
I know. Archie!! I had no one else to feed me and grabbed him as he was walking past. Not ideal but hope the quality of what I’m showing outweighs the footwear 😅
Watching these videos is utterly captivating! The sheer efficiency and energy savings achieved through fluid motions are remarkable.
Thanks Domingo! So excited with what I’ve got planned over the next few months. You keen to get your swing audit in?
Please point me to a place with instructions on how/what to record.

You hit the nail on the head on the tiny things that slow down my game.
Glad to be of help and please feel free to send in your swing for a free audit. Just click the link in the description ☺️

How is body weight transferred to the ball when playing on 2 foot plant base?

I love your videos....but wearing slippers on the court!? Just seen the whole vid, ok you call it out....but still odd foot ware on the court 😂
