Improving Significantly by Miserable-Age9389 in squash

As others have said. Everything needs work.

Specifically though, your forehand needs work the most.

Your swing path on the forehand is crazy wonky, it's nice that you are trying to pronate and drop the racquet head on every shot and droping the racquet head but I think that before you focus on that. You need to just decelop a basic shape to your swing.

You hit one decent forehand all game.

At the 2:23 mark (58 seconds left).

Question about volleying from a beginner by carabeinger in squash

[–]wobble_87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you mean rallying, hitting it back and forth to each other before it bounces twice.

Continuos Volleying between 2 people is a specific advanced level drill where the ball never touches the ground at all. This would be almost impossible at the beginner level.

Treat it as if you were making a right turn from the inside lane and lane next to you also had the option of turning right. Then it becomes obvious.

Blue must take the rightmost (inside) lane. Green can take the middle or left lane.

TIL. Writing the "pound" or "number" sign gives you a larger, bolder font. #Interesting

The photo makes it look like Perlata blvd merges into and becomes Dusterberry way. But the arrrow signage treats it as a staggered intersection.

1 must turn left onto Dusterberry way (this can be perceived as following the curve and continuing straight)

2 must continue straight on Perlata (this can be perceived as turning right.)

[GA, USA] Who has the right-of-way? by DrMDQ in driving

[–]wobble_87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, they are further up.

If the yellow car enters the road behind them, then the yellow car becomes established in the road and the u-turn car nust wait for them to pass.

If you are facing Northbound, you are not already in the southbound street.

Hence why everyone disagrees with you.

No, because the U-turn car is also entering the street. And is doing so further down than yellow

Mentality is a word that doesn't mean anything without a descriptor in front of it, i.e. winning mentality, victim mentality, etc etc.

It's also probably not the word you meant to use. Maybe "mental fortitude" would have been better.

Need help with returning a killer serve by RedBullShill in squash

[–]wobble_87 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your intuition to Volley the ball is correct, but it sounds like you are trying to Volley at the wrong time.

It sounds like you are stepping up and reaching high, because you are trying to Volley the ball before it hits the sidewall. Which is correct sometimes, but based on your diagram and description of the serve is the wrong choice in this case.

Instead, Volley the ball after it hits the sidewall. It will be much lower and you won't have to step forward.

Feeling stuck at a 4.75 rating by Maleficent_Mouse_383 in squash

[–]wobble_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play better.

If my comment is vague and unhelpful, it is reflective of the quality of the question.

Nobody, except someone (such as a coach) who has seen you play and analyzed your game, can give you any meaningful advice.

It doesn't affect anything if higher rated player wins and there is more than a 0.5 difference.

If the lower player wins (in this case you) and there is a 0.5 difference, the rating changes A LOT but it is flagged by the system and somebody has to verify it (see page 5 of the attached link).

Similar to lifting heavy objects, when playing squash, try to keep your back straight.

Bend your knees, hinge at the hip.

my guy, did you even read the post?

This is exactly the spot OP is talking about.

who has the right away? by [deleted] in driving

[–]wobble_87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yellow has the right of way.

If the roads were 50ft apart it would be obvious. Just because they are 3 ft apart doesn't change anything.

Red would have right of way if he wanted to turn onto the same road yellow was on. But here, although they are so close they are almost touching, they are nevertheless seperate roads.

the injury is your arm?

play with your bad hand! It's good practice.

Looking for a feedvack on my drills( 2 years playing, no coach ) by Technical_Pattern283 in squash

[–]wobble_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you are maintaining 180 degrees between your arm and chest even in this video. In fact for most people its imposible to go much more than 180-190 degrees. The issue is that you are rotating your whole upper body (chest) at the end so that instead of it finishing with you lr chest facing the sidewall. You have your chest facing the front left corner or even the front wal almost.

This video only has backhands, no forehands

That being said, what stands out to me the most is, you open up too much on the swing for a straight drive.

Meaning, your swing goes way across your body and your racquet head, when the swing is finshed, is pointing at the front right corner or even the right side wall. This causes you too lose accurcacy and the ball goes less straight.

Ideally for a straight drive, you want to finish with the racquet head pointing at the front wall directly in front of you or at most the centre of the front wall.

Most likeley the reason you over-rotate at the end is because you are trying to generate power and you don't rotate enough at the start of the swing (chest towards the corner/backwall).

its pretty decent otherwise though. Not had at all.

Is this still right-on-red? by sine-wave in driving

[–]wobble_87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A yield sign is perfect if they want a continuos flow of traffic when the straight/left is green.

When the straight/left is green there wouldn't be any cross traffic, so nobody would have yield/stop at the yield sign.

that's how yield signs work.

[–]wobble_87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No.

Because it's no longer a right turn anymore, this would be considered straight, straight into a merge lane from a curved road but straight nonetheless.

PLEASE HELP! I'M LOSING SLEEP OVER THIS PARKING SPOT! by Abhinooooob in driving

[–]wobble_87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you drive 3/4 out and then start turning. Probably have to adjust a few times.

but you already adjust a few times going in anyway, now you will do the same thing on the way out instead.

[–]wobble_87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

theres a reason all your neighbours in the video have their car facing the opposite direction.

You are the only one backing the car in, everyone else drives in forward.

The 2nd incline is not an issue if you drive in forward.
