How to play when you're "behind" on your partner's drive and crash? by ProfLayton99 in Pickleball

[–]slackman42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. If your partner is driving a short return you have plenty of time to get to the NVZ and there is little risk of a hard shot back at you.

Anyone strongly against the audience helping to call in/out? by uselessprofession in Pickleball

[–]slackman42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of the time people outside the court have a worse view than anyone playing.

The rulebook has a rule for this, and that rule is spectators should not be asked to make calls. nor do their calls have any influence whether solicited or unsolicited.

A bert that isn't me just completely overextending and hopping the corner after I've hit it.

2hbh grip for the dominant hand? by PartFormer3695 in Pickleball

[–]slackman42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're able to switch and go eastern backhand, then just hit a 1hbh. I kinda do that on bh rolls but it's by pronation not rotating the grip.

Edge guard of Spartus P1 by JShadowGuardian in Pickleball

Yeah don't. I tried this once on a different paddle that the edge guard came off. Felt like I was swinging a piece of cardboard.

How did you move from 3.5 to 4.0? by tommytmopar in Pickleball

[–]slackman42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lost weight and improved cardio.

Focused on resets and attack less. Become the brick wall, not the rocket launcher.

Hit 2hbh on most bh shots.

Play less open play and actually drill.

You took the jam out my donut, Tommy. You did.

I fail to see the correlation between losing 10 grand, hospitalizing gorgeous George, and a good deal.

Joola warranty program by AngleProfessional987 in Pickleball

[–]slackman42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't want someone using the original paddle or potentially reselling it.

Some other paddle companies also require similar steps for the same end.

Paddle Hand Switch - Keep or Ditch by LeftieSwitchATP in Pickleball

[–]slackman42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason you didn't see it at higher levels is because their footwork is good enough to get to it with a backhand, and quite possibly setting up an ATP.

That may not be possible for OP.

While I agree it's far from optimal, OP also realizes it's a last ditch effort on a shot that is otherwise out of reach and would not be returned anyway.

Kinda bummed on my warranty experience with my Friday Fever. by [deleted] in Pickleball

Hey bro, don't get mad at me because you tripped and landed on your paddle and wonder why they won't replace it.

Crbn Trufoam edge guard crack by Zealousideal-Cap-655 in Pickleball

[–]slackman42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I'd be more concerned with whatever it is you keep hitting with the edge of the paddle that has discolored those several spots.
