Thanks Tom. I enjoy learning more about the soft game.

Great tips, Rusty and Tom! I go back and forth about what's harder: bending at the knees after you've been playing a while, or having the patience to keep dinking until you get that perfect ball -- probably the latter!

Awesome Tom! Thank you!

Thanks, I will keep working on my dink!!

Classic!Totally relevant yesterday,today and the future!

The problem with dinking as confirmed in this video it neutralizes players who are use to playing the hard game. When I play with lower level group dinks are great but playing with advance players dinking is all they do. Actually I would say more points are lost in the net with my advanced group. Because people try to win points off tricky dinks. So is the sink affective against someone higher skill then you I would argued no they would prefer to play the dink against you and you’ll loose. I only bring this up because I see this as how to beat a lower level player which you should be able to win anyway. How do you win Against someone better then you. Practice the dink to be better dinking then them. I’m sure this changes at higher level play

Can you provide another video about setting up a winning dink strategy? Do you want to move them side to side so that you open up as much court as possible or just consistently return more soft volleys then your opponent?

who the HELL named it dink? Love this game.

Thanks. And yes that paddle does not weight that much and so I’m guessing you do not need that much power when hitting the ball anyways.

THIS IS MY PE CLASS HOMEWORK:(

Wait a second....I thought this video was about "Drinking" not dinking. Dang....

What is with the hair?

Why does pickleball have the weirdest names for shots?

Remove the music during instructional part. Low volume for into and end okay, but distracting otherwise.

im forced to watch this for my PE class

In the last shot of the video he scoops the ball when he dinks. You should always hit a level dink unless you are a 4.5 or 5.0 player. If your scoop is not done perfectly the ball rises to high, so just give it a very precisely easy level tap so to place the ball exactly in the spot most unconvenient to your opponent.

Great instructional video thanks again...only downside is the crap needledrop music. Please take the keyboard away from the guy playing it and hand him a drum. for the love of God.

Ohh silly me. I thought drinking was trying to beat two oriental opponents.
