Tip of the day

This video features a collaboration between Tanner and professional player Grayson Goldin, who has a 6.5 DUPR rating.

The video focuses on how Grayson generates significant power in his pickleball shots and offers tips for viewers to improve their own game.

According to Grayson, power comes from a strong base, emphasizing the need to get into an athletic position and use your core and hips to rotate and push off the ground.

He highlights having a loose and "whippy" arm, similar to snapping a towel, as a more efficient way to generate power than muscling the ball.

The video also stresses the crucial role of a loose wrist, with Grayson demonstrating a wrist lag where the paddle is back with the elbow leading the shot, and the wrist snapping through on impact.

A useful drill demonstrates how to throw an imaginary ball underhand towards a fence, practicing proper pronation, wrist snap, and elbow lead.

When critiquing Tanner's form, Grayson advises leading the shot with the butt cap of the paddle and finishing with the paddle face turned down to create topspin.

Key Points:

  • Strong Base: Generate power from the ground up by using your core and hips.

  • Whippy Arm: Use a loose, whip-like arm motion for efficient power generation.

  • Loose Wrist: A loose wrist and wrist lag are crucial for power and snapping through the shot.

  • Drill: Practice the proper motion by throwing an imaginary ball underhand.

  • Common Mistakes: Avoid starting the swing with a cupped paddle and not having enough wrist lag.
