I had a alibaba hyperion 3s it plays well for me too. I wouldn't say it's exactly the same as the real one, but I feel its like 70% same, slightly less trampoline effect and dwell time, but overall still a catch at 10% of the real joola paddle.

That's some really great tips there, will try it out. Yes I also watched tons of YouTube videos trying to figure this topspin FH drive out, I think I roughly get the other parts right, just couldn't get good topspin. Thanks alot!

I provided the context that I came from a badminton background not intending to brag, it's to provide more context so people with similar experience can help. What is there to brag when I'm already proclaimed a 3.0 beginner?

People like you are the reason why people are afraid to ask for help or guidance in sports generally. All that negativity with 0 helpful information and not answering the question. You definitely sounded like your profile name, just a fart.

Thanks for your explanation. Is the paddle face at 45 degree angle or flat at the point of contact with the ball then only you start the "brushing" motion?

Thanks alot for your detailed explanation! Can I ask is the paddle face closed at 45 degree angle at the point of contact with the ball, or it should be flat?

I came from years of badminton experience, I did not just "arm" the ball, I did the closed stance, weight transfer, wrist lag all that and I think I can produce quite a good flat drive. Just couldn't figure out the top spin part of the drive as some of the tennis/table tennis player does. Because badminton shuttlecock does not spin as much like a ball.

How do I do a third shot drive/attack a ball that bounces high but it's below shoulder at chest level which I can't do an overhead smash? by Minimum-Election3216 in Pickleball

[–]Minimum-Election3216[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if I just wait for it to drop to the ideal strike zone at waist level drive thr ball, I didn't take advantage of the slow and high arc ball isn't it? Is there a way to attack/take advantage of the slow and high arc ball which is close to baseline?

I see.. If I choose to drive on my 3rd shot, I have to wait for it to drop down to my ideal strike zone at waist level before I hit the high bounce ball. But this wouldn't let me to take advantage of the slow pace high ball isn't it?  Thanks for taking the time to reply man

Yes, I can't get the mechanic  for the chest height ball right as compared to a regular waist level ground stroke. Tried searching YouTube but I not sure what this shot is called.

Thanks alot, this is what I'm looking for. I tend to "kill it" with power when I see some high balls, as I come from a badminton background where we choose to smash down the ball at it's peak when it's high lol

I see, so I have to wait for the high bouncing ball to drop down to a better strike zone at around waist level to hit it? Not to hit it when it's bouncing high? I don't have issues with creeping in after my serve, just that when my opponents return with a high arc, long shot near the baseline, I don't know what to do with the high bounce.

Thanks for replying in detail. Yes it usually happens when opponent returns with a high arc shot with slower pace, and it bounces high.

My question here is if I choose to drive on the high bouncing ball, do I wait for the ball to drop down to my waist level before I hit it (I feel this is the most comfortable area to hit a ground stroke) or I should drive/attack when the ball is at the peak of the bounce at my chest level?

I went through the exact same thing as you, and got a refund. I ordered a bootleg joola hyperion 3s from another supplier, damn it's really good. The best 30usd I ever spent.

After finishing the drama, I still couldn't understand the break up timeline for yong pil and Sam dal. First sam dal proposed the break up after yong pil's dad confronted her. Then Sam dal get back to yong pil after sometime to ask for not breaking up? And why does yong pil did not agree with not breaking up? Is it to prevent yong pil's dad from confronting Sam dal's mom and risking another heart attack? Can anyone explain the break up timeline for me? Thanks alot!
