Tip of the day

A better serve by Tanner Pickleball

The video introduces a powerful serving strategy inspired by professionals like Christian Alshon.

Tanner initially doubted the effectiveness of stepping back from the baseline to serve but soon realized its advantages.

This method allows players to unleash their full power on serves with topspin, ensuring the ball drops within bounds.

Moreover, it changes the serve's trajectory, making it harder for opponents to return comfortably.

Serving from behind the baseline enables the ball to dip more due to topspin and creates a challenging high trajectory for opponents.

This approach forces opponents to deal with difficult bounces, often resulting in a loss of control over their returns.

Unlike traditional serving methods, which require balancing power and height, this "cheat code" serve achieves both.

It lands deep in the opponent's court and makes them handle tough bounces.

Key Points:

• Stepping back enhances the power and topspin of serves.

• The serve's high trajectory challenges opponents.

• This strategy leads to difficult bounces for opponents, disrupting their control.

• It improves the server's positioning, giving them more time to react.

• The new serve increases scoring chances and forces weaker returns.
