The Erne is one of the coolest looking shots in pickleball, but it's also one of the most effective. My erne has been a huge weapon in my pro pickleball journey, and today, I'm revealing most, but not all, of my secrets ;)

Kyle, you've quickly become my favorite KZfaq pickleball instructor. I feel like your topics and the way you teach them are perfect for the hungry, intellectual pickleball player like me. I'm 4.0 currently and still trying to raise my game. This is perfect for that. I knew #1 and #3, but not #2. Thank you and please keep making content.

Great video, production and editing makes everything so clear! Watching for ATP and Erne opportunities, practicing the footwork, and drilling the process; fingers crossed that I get to execute soon! Kyle, question for you - do you go for the erne, if your partner may not think to or know to slide over to cover??
@thatpickleballguy
@thatpickleballguy Жыл бұрын
thank you! Glad it was helpful. Yeah go for it. Even if your partner doesn't slide and you lose that point, that's not really the point (pun intended) at first. The point is to get reps at it so you continue to improve. Of course in tournament play, you want your partner to know to slide over! Because its more important to win points in tournaments than when you're working to improve in rec play!

Very fun and well done video. I've been playing for 6+ months and haven't even attempted an Erne yet. Looking forward to giving it a proper try now. ATP's are easy for me, but somehow the Erne takes more brain power for me for sure. One thing that you don't mention is what your partner should be doing to help!
@thatpickleballguy
@thatpickleballguy Жыл бұрын
Hey John, definitely give it a try. And yep, it's a good question about your partner. I debated adding that in here, but then thought it might make it more complicated. (not sure if I made the right call or not). Nonetheless, If I'm playing the right hand side, and your my partner playing the right side. And I go for an erne. You should slide over from the right side across the mid line toward the left side to cover me. Of course, occasionally they might hit a great dink back over and beat you. But more often than not, if the opponent does hit a shot I cant erne, It's going back to the middle. Not cross court. Hope that helps. let me know if you have follow ups!

I mean it's also OK to step in the NVZ on the way to Erne as long as both feet touch down wide (with no contact of NVZ) before you strike the ball, but 3 problems: it's easier to read your move b/c you have to hit late, you can't reach as far in as when hitting while mid-air on the way over, and sometimes referees could make an error of calling a NVZ push off despite both feet being "established" outside before the ball is struck. I once saw a referee call a push off on an overhead despite multiple backsteps behind the NVZ before jumping. Natural human error, or maybe she believed you need to be stable on 2 feet outside the NVZ at some point before hitting(?). But if you run through the NVZ then as long as the last court surface touched by both your shoes was outside the NVZ, then whether you're balanced, still in motion, or landed on only one foot at a time, you can still volley legally... right? I don't know how referees judge a rolling/rocking step, e.g. if my heel is on the NVZ line and I rise to my toes which are outside the NVZ, then volley and remain out... but I wouldn't chance it.

At a minute in you said you can’t jump with your foot on the kitchen line. As long as you don’t hit it while you are in the air and land first out of the kitchen completely(including lines) then it should be legal. Rules say you just have to have both feet touch the playing surface after entering the NVZ. And playing surface is defined as court and area around court.
@thatpickleballguy
@thatpickleballguy 3 ай бұрын
yes thats true. When I said that, I was thinking about how many ernes are hit. A player jumps from outside the kitchen. Contacts the ball in mid, air and then lands outside. IF you contact the ball in mid air, you would have had to jump from outside the kitchen line, or it'd be a fault. What you said is true as well!

@thatpickleballguy Жыл бұрын
Yes, thanks for the message. That was my intent when talking about "level 1 footwork." It's the ability to run around the kitchen, instead of jumping through. So read 1 is the most likely scenario for you to get the Erne. I included read 2 and read 3 for players who do have a bit more athletic ability so everyone got something out of it they could use :)

So here's an interesting question. Why do I have to avoid stepping in the kitchen? As long as my feet are outside the kitchen when I hit the volley, isn't that okay? Isn't the rule that you just can't be in the kitchen (or land there on your follow through after the volley) at the time you hit the Erne volley?
@TheBoydTV
@TheBoydTV Жыл бұрын
yes, I believe this is the rule as well. You can literally walk right through the kitchen to hit an erne, as long as when you hit it both feet are established on the outside of the court.
@Chorspool
@Chorspool Жыл бұрын
I believe it’s just safest to jump over it. Most of the time you would be in the air when making contact because it’s a split second decision, so rarely would you be able to take two steps (one in kitchen and one outside of it) in the same time that you could jump over it.
@thatpickleballguy
@thatpickleballguy Жыл бұрын
Agree here! typically not enough time (at higher levels for sure) to run through and get out in time) I jump the kitchen 95% of the time bc its most efficient. And id say 95% of the time, i make contact with the ball before i land.

You can! I debated mentioning that, but opted not too. The thing is, rarely do you have enough time to run through, re-establish both feet outside, then make contact with the ball. It's definitely possible and it definitely happens, just not as common! Also, if you're in a tournament play, there's a good chance you're putting the ref in a position to call a foot fault because it looks strange. And refs are human. They'll probably call a foot fault.

Just to clarify, if the ball crosses the net you can break the plane to hit it. Sometimes the back spin will take a short ball back over the net in which case you have no option other than to break the plane to hit it.
@thatpickleballguy
@thatpickleballguy Жыл бұрын
If the ball bounces on one side, then the backspin, brings it back to the other side, you are correct, that's the only time you can break the plane BEFORE making contact. In this situation, you must make contact with the ball on your own side before breaking the plane to your opponents side. Does that help? If not, hit me with a follow up question!
