When it comes to attacking from the net, many players force the issue and will attack too soon on either a ball they are’t really set up for well or will have a bad contact point on or both.
Or, they are going for openings and outright winners off their attacks off of balls that’ are too low.
If that sounds like you or you are attempting to attack off of low balls like the pros do and it’s just not working out for you and you’re not sure why.
This video could be the answer to your attacking problems.
If you want to attack off of low balls then you really need to consider if you’re thinking about it and executing in the way we cover here.
If you’re not, we suggest you start because it works! We know that it works because we do it ourselves to great effect and it’s what we see all the pros doing.
We’ve enlisted the help of Pro Player Riley Newman to show us how to attack effectively on low balls. Watch Now!

Riley's positioning of low and wide with forward leaning upper body and paddle far enough in front plus high enough seems to buy him more time to adjust, watch ball into paddle, swing compactly with contact in front and quickly back to ready. I struggle with that ready position so lose time, get off balance and lose eyes on ball. Great to see it done correctly to be more ready and balanced so more able to watch the ball.

@DottiBerryakacoachb 2 года назад

Great slo-mo breakdown. As I watched it also be me clear to me how important it is to keep the lower body still and “tie the line.” Riley constantly dies that with his paddle out front and isn’t having to step off the line and therefore doesn’t get caught out of position! Wow! So clear!

@DottiBerryakacoachb 2 года назад

Should add, however, that Riley placed balls so that he didn’t have to step off the line. If had had hit Jordan really high ball he would have had to back up a couple of steps to “dig it out” defensively and then come back to NVL

@primetimepickleball 2 года назад

Yes, for sure, he didn't send much "high" at all and as a result holding his position made a lot of sense.

@thinkplanetearth2946 3 года назад

Wow, what an amazing video. For me, one of your best that I've seen. From the VO description of what's happening and why, to the actual footage in real time and slow motion to see it in action. Really superb. I find all of your videos very clear, well done and thought out.

@michaelevans3449 4 года назад

Riley (& his sister lol) are so good at getting low and keeping the ball in front when making contact w/ volleys. His unique paddle positioning along w/ him crouching low allows him to consistently hit down on the ball and avoid getting jammed up.

@primetimepickleball 4 года назад

Yep!!

@SDPBALLCOACH 2 года назад

This is good. I'll have to put it on the list for students.. Good job guys

@pahu47 4 года назад

Probably because of Riley’s size he is able to volley most of Jordan’s returns and stay more still. Also @8:00 Jordan gets pushed back almost 3 ft from the NVZ line before he regains position. Great video and stop/slow motion helps to really see the procedure.

@primetimepickleball 4 года назад

His dinks are so good and unattackable, as he puts so much pressure on you because he can attack anytime. I am also trying to attack whenever I can, so that I’m not always on the defensive. Sometimes the depth of the dinks from Riley are very hard to judge, so I end up having to back up to hit a good dink.

@larrysee7306 Год назад

Correct! Riley pretty much stays in one place and is able to reach almost anything Jordan sends back

@jimw6991 Год назад

@@primetimepickleball What makes his dinks great and unattackable? As others have commented Jordan backed off NVZ line a couple of times, I wonder if he could have leaned forward and hit ball in air versus step back and play off the bounce? Asking cause I see this myself and wonder which is better. The other thing I find is I hit what I think is an unattackable ball (no pace, bounces in kitchen and stays below net height) and my opponent hits a sharp angle for a winner ... I think it was lucky, then they do it again. I know this video was made a long time ago, but at least for me I find this very informative, we all would enjoy the opportunity to hit against a top player and get some tips. You could have had this roll for another 20 minutes, very interesting slo motion analysis. Thanks for sharing!!

@mikefixac Год назад

@@jimw6991 I wonder too since Riley is a lot taller, he has more reach into the NVZ. And just because of his physical size, he's more in control of the point. When PB becomes really popular, I see 7' players coming online making the NVZ moot.

@larrysee7306 Год назад

From spectators' angle it looks like Jordan could have let some attacks fly by(hopefully out). Cant really tell, however, and Riley has wicked Topspin

@chaseevans4057 4 года назад

During their last point beginning at 6:08, it seems as though Riley consistently is able to hit great counterattacks using his forehand when chickened winged, while Jordan uses his backhand to reset the point when chickened winged. I've noticed Riley's racket reset position is very high, around shoulder height, along with a low athletic stance that makes him about the same height as Jordan, and seems like he is always ready for the chicken wing shot and never has to use his backhand to hit it!

@primetimepickleball 4 года назад

Great observation. Although, I think the main thing that allows him to do this so easily is his semi western-western grip. He is one of the few players that can play with that grip throughout the whole point. Very unconventional, yet very effective for him.

@chaseevans4057 4 года назад

@@primetimepickleball Oh my gosh u are so right! I just switched between continental and semi western and put it next to my dominant side shoulder and it totally changes how you hit a chicken wing shot! I also use semi-western for everything in pickleball but was thinking of changing to continental when I volley (like i do in tennis) but now I might just stick to semi-western for everything! I love the idea of being able to hit chicken wing shots with my forehand.

@jimw6991 4 года назад

Hi Jordan, when I get a ball to that high right shoulder area I will try to play forehand volley. I do this by rotating shoulders close to parallel with path of incoming ball and make contact with ball more at side or even behind me. Although I can't attack I have some success resetting these, more so the

@jimw6991 4 года назад

should say more so than jammed backhand volley. Have you tried this? Also slow motion replay us really helpful!

@erniemedina5860 2 года назад

Love the slo-mo analysis of each of the rallies. I did notice something and wanted to ask regarding footwork. I noticed that Riley kept his feet and shoulders facing the net most of the time, while Jordan would often take his right foot and step back so his stance/shoulders were facing towards the net post. Was this to look like he was going to pull the trigger but was faking it, or for some other reason? Was curious about that. Thanks!

@primetimepickleball 2 года назад

Hi Ernie! Step back dinks/drives are something that is happening more and more. Yes, it does offer a different "look" to you opponent and also gives you the chance to speed it up if a deeper dink will bounce high enough. I don't believe he was faking as much as he was looking for a speed up if it was there but yes, you could mix in fakes. Riley doesn't do this as much as others and opts for a different strategy/style. He tends to take those as a dink volley and speed up out of the air. Jordan would mix in dink volleys and step backs.

@elizabethheyenga9277 3 года назад

Great video as always. But it looks like a prison lol

@gg80108 2 года назад

What I see is that usually my aggressive attack is hit back to my partner who is not ready! Somehow the parner needs a clue of what is coming! Its easier to hit cross court then straight ahead. Maybe the straight ahead dinking could give partner a clue? Sometimes your partner is your enemy too!

@primetimepickleball 2 года назад

Lol! Be ready partner ;)

@need2c Год назад

Nice video and explanation. It is apparent to me that Riley stays square and gets low at the NVZ. The other guy sets up like he is hitting a ground stroke which takes time, which you rarely have while in a dink battle with someone who can change gears on you in split second. Staying square gives you a little more time to adjust quickly. Did anyone else notice that? @primetime pickleball

@primetimepickleball Год назад

Good observation! Yes, most pros are you using the stance where they stay square as much as possible. (sorry for the delay)

@stanloco29 4 года назад

It is interesting to see the different styles in play between these two. Jordan looked like he was moving around more and that may be because Riley was pushing him around. Riley looked to be in a very athletic stance but was very stable. He hardly moved side to side, that may be because he is so tall and has a long reach. I also noticed the very light grip pressure from Jordan especially right after the the ball rolls off the net he spins his paddle. You can also see in the slow motion part that he loosens his grip for the next shot too. I like this drill to shoot for a target to get the chicken wing. I find myself in that position more often then wanted. How do you avoid that as the receiver?

@primetimepickleball 4 года назад

It’s very hard to do! I think that being cognitive about defending that shot is a good start. If you can expect it to come, then you will have a much better chance in defending it. Also playing a bit off the line against great attackers help me see the ball a little bit better

@michaelevans3449 4 года назад

Stan McShinsky I think it’s an awesome drill too and really well done video. Also I think resetting your paddle to the “10-12 o’clock” position quickly after each volley can help avoid the chicken wing. When your paddle is not “cheating” to one side like the backhand, then you have extra time to move your paddle to the forehand position so you can hit those balls on your right shoulder area.

Thank you primetime pickleball. Another great video production for all. Both have great dinking skills, reset and low-ball attack. I think we can clearly see Ridley is an offensive and yet with great counter -attack skills. Although he is tall and 'lengthy ', his natural instinct response always help him to have upper hand in whatever situation he is in. His another great tournament can be watch at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uarYyGGpeTE.html..... he is really a great player.

@infomercialguy 2 года назад

Riley, do you keep the "western" grip on your back hand too? It seems like you do.

@primetimepickleball 2 года назад

Western grip is very extreme and he isn’t using that on either hand. He looks to be using a nearly semi-western grip with his right hand and a lefty eastern grip on his left hand.

@primetimepickleball 3 года назад

This is one of the hardest shots to defend in pickleball. Anticipation is huge. Also if you know you can’t react, then taking a step back or two when at the NVZ can help a lot! You can go out there with a partner and purposely hit these shots to each other for practice!

@pahu47 3 года назад

Im pretty flexible and have quick hands, but OFTEN hit into the net when it should have been an easy kill. Any tips?

@primetimepickleball 3 года назад

One thing that I can think of is that Your paddle face is not open enough during contact. This may seem basic, although it is true. If you have an “easy kill” like you say, while you contact the ball, your paddle is facing down. Maybe try to aim more over the net when you get a kill shot. Also, if you contact the ball too far in front of you, that may cause you to reach and face your paddle down. Let the ball come to you, and then smash the ball!
