How to get CRAZY fast hands by Pickleball Playbook

In today’s video, Austin from Pickleball Playbook shares essential tips to improve hand speed in pickleball.

He emphasizes the importance of becoming one with your paddle by adjusting its weight and practicing hand-eye coordination drills.

Key drills include:

• Alternating ups (forehand and backhand)

• bouncing the ball on the ground

• catch-and-throw exercises to improve paddle control and awareness.

Austin also discusses the significance of a proper ready position, tailored to whether you have a one-handed or two-handed backhand.

The primary technique for faster hands is avoiding extending beyond your dominant or non-dominant shoulder, keeping movements compact and in front of you for quicker response times.

Key Points:

• Customize your paddle's weight for balance between speed and power.

• Practice hand-eye coordination drills to improve paddle control.

• Adopt a ready position that complements your backhand style.

• Keep paddle movements compact, avoiding extension beyond your shoulders for faster counterattacks.
