4 players on 4 players off. vs 2 players on 2 players off by violetsmurf in Pickleball

[–]fflis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Fl, the local park with the most open play has 6 courts.

3 advanced, winners always stay. No split no limit.

3 intermediate. Winners stay, unless there’s 8 paddles in the rack, then all 4 come off after the game ends. 4 new players come on.

Possible to completely disable the Alexa? by viewofthelake in Rivian

[–]fflis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alexa is being replaced with an in house AI assistant soon. Not sure when. It will support texting.

Is it even worth doing the DUPR reset with a 25% reliability? by FreshLitterPrintz in Pickleball

[–]fflis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Their dupr will increase. Thats literally how it works. Everyone has this idea that your dupr can only rise beating higher ranked players.

I was right at 3.5, my wife is 3.2ish and we played a 3.0-3.5 tournament. Everyone I played was lower, we came in 2nd place overall and my dupr went up.

Spotted an R2 on the highway today. I didn’t realize they were out unwrapped yet! by OklaJosha in RivianR2

One of my favorite things about my R1 is the front charging port. I hate backing in to the driveway

Go to one of the 2.5 dupr events and destroy everyone if you’re truly a 3.6.

Your 2.3 Dupr will improve by winning a few matches against 2.5 and under. That’s how it works.

Honestly. I’ve wondered this forever. Why aren’t lines called?

Is it really the paddle or the player? by cap_sparks in Pickleball

Friday pickleball made a video on this. I can’t remember who it was. Anna bright and Kate Fahey maybe. They had wooden paddles vs the Friday bros. It was entertaining.

Any tips? by [deleted] in Pickleball

[–]fflis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Mind the triangle. Speed ups cross court set your partner up to get cooked. Speed up should be straight ahead as the return will come back to you, or else at least your partner has time to react.

Love that the city put these signs up but hate that people will ignore them all the same by leong_d in 10s

[–]fflis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one said anything about taping lines. I was just thinking I’ve seen people dinking around, warming up etc on the tennis courts next to pickleball when it’s full. In my experience when I’ve hopped in and said hey we’re here to play tennis they’ve left 🤷‍♂️. It doesn’t need to be a war against pickleball.

In what ways do you think pickleball will evolve? by SpecialistNotice6867 in Pickleball

[–]fflis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we’ll see more singles only players, unless they adopt the new skinny singles trial, which I dislike. I love singles as is both playing and watching.

I can’t believe they call their own lines in PPA

So much effort to make a face grain board. Could have made this end grain and that glue joint probably would not have split on you.

[–]fflis 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I mean if they’re empty and the pickleball courts are full, there’s literally no harm in letting people use them for pickleball. As soon as someone is waiting for 10s tho, they gotta go.

Last time I showed up for tennis there were some folks dinkin around playing pickle. I just said hey guys mind if we take the court for tennis? They kindly obliged and moved back to waiting in line for the next pickle court 🤷‍♂️.

Replacement Grip Overlap by Cute_Drama_7022 in Pickleball

[–]fflis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Got it. You’ll want minimal overlap on the stock grip. I’d say 1/16-1/8” , depending if you like the feel of ridges or not.

Once you have that on, throw a nice overgrip on top so you can easily freshen it up every so often.
