Do you think the chainsaw serve should still be allowed? Discount codes and social links in the video description. Thanks for watching 🙌 again, apologies on the out of focus camera, appreciate your understanding and always giving me another chance.

This interview really brought the other side of Zane out for many to see. I have always watched Zane as someone who loves to tangle on the edge with how he brings his thoughts and ideas into conversation. However, this showed he still carries a real caring side and love for his paternal grandmother and endured a very mature discussion. His father would be very proud if he heard that part of the discussion. Keep up the good life, you both!

Zane. Great interview. You really could/should do a Pickleball Pro Masterclass for the young up and coming pros. You are so intentional with everything (it seems) and so there is a lot of maturity in that even if you’ve still got 12 year old boy potty humor. Sounds like you are setting yourself up for a great future after playing professionally. This sort of thinking would greatly benefit younger up and coming players. Great job. I’d love to hear more about what makes a person “a good teammate”? Also what is your daily list look like? Is it task oriented only or intentional lifestyle stuff like meals and nutrition goals, relaxation/resets, mental prep, etc?

Love the content you're making! I saw you at the PALA flamingo tournament! I wanted to come say hi but you were sitting in between the courts so I couldn't get to you. Are you going to make a youtube video from the PALA tournament? It looked like y'all were mic'd up. Hopefully I'll see you at another tournament soon.

Thanks Brian, great even "out of focus" Best interview for me by far. Love Zane, checks all the boxes for me. I spent my last 10 years of work as a Nurse in the ALZ/DEM field. That disease is a "scurge" on Humanity. "Sometimes you just gotta dunk on a Karen"" needs to be on a shirt. Banter between you two is hilarious i.e. sleep at 69. What's that tea name?

Chainsaw serve was the reason that I started playing pickleball. Zane had a big influence on me playing this game. I'm so sad that it went away as having a good serve is part of the game. USAP should had let us do whatever that we want on the serve rather than letting PPA dictate on their rules.

RIP chainsaw serve. Yeah Zane has definitely been one of the pioneers of the latest wave (past few years)
