    These players are all 3.5 at best. Even the so called “best player ever” is maybe a 4.5.
    Just kidding. Since there is never a high level video that gets posted without someone saying that, I thought I’d get it out of the way on the pro video before it even starts.

    I am a tennis player and this looks pretty fun indeed...Questions:
    Can you " top spin" the ball so when it lands it accelerates with a higher bounce ?
    I know the rule of " no feet " in the net section but can someone jumps over it and hit the ball , like a smash, when both feet are off the ground ?
    Thanks !

    • @earlstrohmeyer486

    • @alfredeneuman6966
      @alfredeneuman6966 Před 2 lety

      You can top spin a Pickleball, but as the paddle is hard compared to a tennis racquets strings, it is a bit more difficult. For me an underhand slice is a little easier to get underspin. You can jump over the non volley zone and hit the ball near the ends of the court, as in a "flying erne," but you cannot land in the NVZ doing so. I play with someone who flips the paddle to produce topspin, and usually at terrific speed. He is truly a master at it and I have to say I've not seen even the pros do it like he does. He will often do this for balls below the net, but there he increases his chance of hitting the net. The guy is 65, will 'walk' 36 holes of golf during the day, then play sets of Pickleball in the evening.

    I notice Ben waits for the ball to get to him and likes hitting the ball when it’s closer to the ground after it bounces. I think this gives the ball a better trajectory when dinking and dropping

    Ben is a phenomenal singles player. That being said, I would not partner with him because he handles like 80 % of the balls in doubles.
    I would prefer trying to beat him. The way to beat him is you MUST keep him out of the middle with Miss direction shots. And slam it down the outside. You must take high risk shots inorder to have a chance. I don't see many slams to his feet also.

    Nice, but I think the video is a bit misnamed. It should be "Why SIMONE JARDIM is the number one female player in the world". She and Ben just finished defeating one of the top men's teams in the world and she didn't shy away from the battle one bit. That's why, in my book, Simone and Jesse Irvine are of a special breed. No fear.

      @@Kalamabbfan I'd be more interested in seeing how Ana Leigh would play with Lindsay Newman or Jesse Irvine. I think Simone's style and her age would make that pair-up of limited effectiveness. MAJOR kudos to Leigh Waters for grooming and playing with Ana Leigh, but I think AL should be looking fro a young partner for her long term career. That's my opinion. Others will disagree, no doubt.

      She is great and made a lot of shots -holding her own- vs the boys, but Ben really owned the court. He stands at centre-line and takes 75% of the court while Simone has to defend the corner. When they attacked Johns it didn't go in their favor. Also, Johns' roll attack is sick.

  • @neoncoyote2008

    Interesting that when Ben is on the odd side at the line, he frequently allows his right foot to cross over his left when he's reaching for a backhand. Most coaches say not to do this, so as not to be off balance on the next shot. I guess Ben is just quick enough that it doesn't matter. Now, anyway.

    • @CliffPickleball
      @CliffPickleball  Před 2 lety +3

      If you quick enough there's absolutely no issue crossing your right leg over the left on the odd side the key is you have to go back to your initial position as soon as you hit the ball.

      neoncoyote2008 like anything in any sport, it depends on the situation. In most cases, he was in dink mode and new he had plenty of time. Most people do. In other cases, the quicker will effectively use crossover. Otherwise, shuffle. It will always depend on the situation.
