Tip of the day

Austin from Pickleball Playbook explains four types of pickleball drops: flat, underspin, topspin, and the 'drip' (a mix of drive and drop).

He emphasizes starting with the flat drop to build a solid foundation before moving to more advanced drops.

The flat drop is simple and consistent, but opponents can attack it.

Underspin drops skids low, making it hard for opponents to attack, but timing the shot is harder.

The topspin drop applies pressure as it kicks up towards opponents but is the most difficult to master.

The 'drip' is a drive-and-drop combo, very advanced and challenging to hit.

Key Points:

  • Master the flat drop first for a strong foundation.

  • The underspin drop stays low, causing difficulty for opponents.

  • The topspin drop is challenging but applies pressure to your opponents.

  • The 'drip' is an advanced, high-risk shot combining drive and drop.

  • Each drop type has its own technique and timing, requiring practice.
