    This is a great analysis. Jonathon and Elias are my favorites. They both hold the racquet the same way leading to a lot of options.

    Lol…I’m that second clip, “he rolled over the ball a little bit…” - love it.
    Let’s just say he came over the top of that thing.

    Your videos are the slowest, least interesting and boring squash videos on you tube, and yet somehow I continue watching them. Keep up the good work !

    Thanks so much for following through with this request. So satisfying watching Power send top pro's the wrong way, and good insights into the technical things that made him so unpredictable. Former pro I know who played JP said you would be in a rally with him, and all of a sudden it would be over and you wouldn't understand why. One of my favourite players to watch.

    • @ARProformance
      @ARProformance  Před 3 lety +1

      Haha, yes! I've heard the same from others. I had an opportunity to hit with him a few years ago (after his retirement) and even then I could see his skill! Very impressive stuff.
      Thanks for your continued support. Take care,

    Excellent detail at 8:02 showing how JP uses topspin here, not for the spin action whatsoever, but because the racquet head follow-through will look to Palmer like JP is hitting crosscourt.

    thanks for a very informative analysis of JP.
    the benefits of hitting with an open stance cannot be understated... it opens up so many shot options.
    in fact it might be a good idea to practice forehand lengths (both straight and cross court) with an open stance.
    the half/3-quarter swing reminds me of shorbagy senior's swing as well.
    for the older players, not having to execute a full swing is beneficial due to lack of mobility with age and it lessens racquet prep time as well for us folks who tend to be slower.

    • @ARProformance
      @ARProformance  Před 3 lety

      It is critical to be able to hit with both open and closed stance, and then to develop multiple shot options in both positions. The 3/4 swing has its benefits 👍🏼 It is my belief that at the highest of levels, players can hit multiple shots with different swings. Pretty wild to think about the versatility 💪🏼 Thanks for your continued support Nicholas 🙏🏼

    Loved the in-depth technical breakdown. It would be good to see you perform the snapping through as well like you did in the Sherbini video. That really helped crystallise the movement for me

    Amazing video. Just found your page and have subscribed. Special request: analysis of Jon Power in JP vs. Nicol 2003 Super Series Final. Would be interesting to see the changes in tactics from early 00s to now

    On that early side note, it appears to me your right foot could face the side wall in the back right corner if you take a curved J path to the corner. Not a typical foot path but an ideal one in some sense.

    • @ARProformance
      @ARProformance  Před 2 lety +1

      Absolutely Dennis, it could given the path you've mentioned. It's an effective path if someone hits a wide cross court and the ball comes back into the middle of the court.
      Thanks for watching and engaging in a discussion,

    @68sayem Před 3 lety +1

    Do u think that the HOLD in mid racket position is the key element to initiate the slapping action ?
    Also the cocked wrist .. i see in a frozen fram of JP clip that the wrist is brocken exactly at the ball contact point .. but i am sure it is firm wrist ... then he cocked it again at the end of the swing ..... so my believe is, at the start of the swing, the cocked wrist give the player many options ragarding the racket face , help to keep his arm away from his trunk, then the cocked wrist is naturally released at the ball contact point but the wrist should be firm , then the player has to cock his wrist again at the end of the swing may be to stop overrotation
    May be i am wrong !!!!
    as u mention in your analysis the opponent player attitude to deception, may be the type of the split step (bi footed / single footed) played a significant rule in ball retrieving, u can make a look again

    • @ARProformance
      @ARProformance  Před 3 lety +1

      The slapping action is more of a technical and timing piece - the body's momentum / weight transfers to the ball when timed effectively. The 3/4 racquet prep can help with natural deception if one can hit multiple shots from that position.
      Re. the cocked wrist - you're correct in that it gives options. It also brings consistency to shots. The wrist definitely drops a bit at contact (there has to be fluidity), but it's never limp / soft. It's firm. It's a fine balance between being firm yet elastic. The entire body (feet to hips, core, shoulder, forearm, wrist, fingers) are all involved.
      Hope this helps. Thanks for your continued support Mohamed,
      Ahad
