- Zane Navratil and Dekel Bar faced off against 5.0-rated pickleball amateurs in a rather peculiar exhibition game.
Part of the Pros vs 5.O's series, the unique challenge for the PPA pros: the amateurs are allowed to serve overhand in the style of tennis, a departure from the traditional underhand serve that players must use in regulation pickleball.

How about the pros play with sweet spot trainers, I actually got a few games with them and it was fun and entertaining.
That would be awesome. ProXR would probably need to make a sweet spot trainer first
Pros with wood paddles vs 5.0's with either the GB Power Pros or the Joola Gen 3's.
Great stuff. How about pros play with ping pong paddles next?
pros with old school wood paddles vs. 5.0s with new school paddles.
4.6 dupr looking high
Love these videos. Really fun stuff.
He's definitely 4.5
That's what we're saying
Super fun! Thanks!
very fun. The ability to serve and volley brought the game much closer
Zane is so casual at the net. Great stuff.
Would be interesting to give the pros 2 more feet at baseline so 5.0’s can serve, return and lob deeper. Or even one extra foot.
That was entertaining! It would be fun to play with total tennis rules!
Overhand serve with the Gen 3 Joola would have been awesome 😮😮😮
the serve and volley is such a fun twist
Idk if Thomas counts as a 5.0.
He’s definitely not. Played him in a ppa tournament once. He’s not
DUPR don't lie
Nice!
I enjoy these wacky games!
I didn’t realize till the end that Thomas is the same dude from their podcast 😂
"he thinks he's Jack Munro" 😂
How much for a lesson
Games with the pickleskills sweet spot trainer would be amazing!
So hilarious!
Lol, great Vid!
How about Pros using training paddles vs 5.0s?
These guys were really entertaining! if only they locked in sooner might've had a shot
I want to see Dekel Bar do his serve and shoulder height while maximizing top spin 🚀
Now I’m wondering how effective a kick serve with a paddle and pickleball would be 😂 I already slice my overheads a little because I hit them like I do in tennis. I bet the counter spin would be hilariously baffling.
Dekel Bar is such a beast
Idea for next episode! Pros use wooden/cheep paddles and the 5.0s get good paddles
Should do Pros v. 5.0s where pros have to play with $10 Walmart paddles
They're sponsored by ProXR paddles, doubt that will happen lol
They had no advantage serving overhead or being able to volley the return. It was fun to watch as always.
What video did you watch? It was a huge advantage. Do you think the game would have been close if they played normal?! 😂
lets get the pros with some raggedy walmart paddles lmao
Pros vs 5.0s Backhand only
How about 5.0s can let the ball bounce twice before hitting or fault.
The pros had the advantage of BEING THE RETURNING TEAM every single point! Overhead be damned, these guys were screwed from the get!
5.0+ skills, 2.5+ ability to keep score
Thomas isn’t a 5.0……
Damn funny stuff!!! How about playing with a patch over one eye. Could be very interesting.
One did not look like a 5.0 looked barely 4.0 to me.
So no underserved it’s like tennis serve
No way Thomas is a 4.5. 3.5 at best!!
Thomas is 3.5 at best. He needs that shirt
@6:38 they didn’t get a point
No chance for the 5.0s to come back.
uhmmmm Thomas is more like a 4.0
quite often looking like 3.75 to me
When you changed up the rules, WHY didn’t Thomas and his partner start with a guy at the net? This was painful to watch overall.
Thomas ain’t a 5.0 he couldn’t even beat me and pops
You guys look like 3.5 lol
Abu ghraib ending
Even with an Overhead Tennis serve they didn't really have a ton of advantage... They got most of the balls back in play. So all the people that always call illegal serve on other players that barely or bored line hitting the ball at the waist line... give it up. Don't be that guy! It's not that much of an advantage over your opponent. Great video... very entertaining.
That’s cause these guys don’t know how to hit an actual tennis serve. If a good tennis player were serving overhead in pickleball the game would suck for the opponent and that’s why the underhand serve rules are in place.
@@kabob21 This was an experiment. Even if they didn't hit the perfect overhead tennis serve it's still 10x more leverage power then an underhand serve. So if they can get most of the serve back in play then it's really no big deal to receive an "illegal" under hand serve just above the waist line that so many complaint about.
Why on earth aren’t the 5.0s starting with the player not serving already at the kitchen 🤯
They don’t seem to be tennis players so their natural instinct is to stay back on serve. They did finally figure it out at 13:07 😂
Weakest opponents you've had by far
cancel no volley zone, much more fun they said.
You guys need a radar gun
Lol let's see this with some great overhead servers tho
lol its funny watching pickleballers without a tennis background serve overhead with the frying pan grip. That grip works so well at the kitchen, but once you move back, actually tennis technique comes into play.
Guy with the white cap sucked
Black shirt is uhhhh....not good. White shirt actually plays like a 5.0 but I doubt he has tennis experience, those overhead serves were weeeeaaaak
Pickleball rules do not allow overhead serves.
Picklenall is losing its dignity w these guys. Stick to the real rules n scope of pickle ball. Dont abuse the sport. Ex. Tennis w paddles, volleball w a basketball, baseball w ping pong ball etc. Amazing !
They're allowed to have fun any way that they want to. I find it entertaining, especially when Ben and Collin played left handed. Giving 5.0's advantages shows how good the pros are. I'd pay to see these games if I was in town and knew the scheduled guests.
What a joke of a comment
I quote Chris from pickleball studio.. Thomas is '3.5 at best' 😂
@rickygalban9599 Take a Chill Pill. Why so serious? Do some Yoga or something. They're just having fun. It's good entertainment.
Then stick to watching PPA or MLP. Plenty of that content out there! ✌🏻
