You mean minitennis, the crucial development tool for players on all levels? Feel is something you should learn about

Slower ball, different scoring, different strategies

​@andrewgedman1214 yea, i just started playing and coming from tennis to pickle ball . I definitely have had to change my game

And different rules

As someone who played tennis for 41 years and made the switch, it’s different.

And the most annoying sports sound in the world

You love dis shit!

Take a look at pádel ball - pretty sure that is the correct spelling - it’s huge in Spain. Never seen it in the US.

If the sponsors are willing, the money will flow

​@@ProfessorB.Padel is is quite big worlwide... Also much harder than pickleball.

@@ProfessorB. do NOT compare padel with pickleball

Noble... but foolish!!!

He still could have won that point what u talking bout, shoulda returned down the line and not right back at him every time

Fr tho its js so balanced and overall just a good sport

this whole sport is a blunder

Danny what you doing here?

Chess pickle collab when?!

​@@Tony.Frost.balanced ? It's boring as fk on most points only one guy per team hit the ball ! Supposed to be doubles ... They have a crappy smash position , they are "pro"s but nobody is physically trained to play it's wtf for a pro scene

Not at all. Completely different. Table Tennis generates way more spin and the other physical or just too different

Don't make me laugh 🤣

PADEL : Hold my beer ...

Because its too easy.

You mean just the US correct? I mean America is the whole thing. Nobody plays this aside from the US 😂

Don't

Ngl.. i train this once and my coach ask me to join competition for the first time.. now i am addicted 😭💀

true

wasn’t out it was just in

@@sirajmunir9947 ok, maybe it was on the line, but I did slow it down and watched it and it appeared to be over. Anyhow now I know that if it is hit outside the line it is out. Thanks

Pretty much like tennis, ping pong, badminton, soccer, golf etc. If a ball is outside the stated boundaries then it’s called out. Nothing different here.

Unfortunately not 🥲 contact on serve has to be below the hip

So that it doesn't turn into tennis and half the game is just watching / won on serves. Its a good decision and makes it more fun to play and watch than tennis.

Yeah, I wish they could come up with something better, because it sounds so lame. I can see a day when major sponsorship for tournaments will come from the likes of Heinz and Claussen. :)

😂😂😂

easier said than done

​@@burritosburritosit really isn't, there were lots of chances for a clear and easy smash to win the point but they didn't hit it, maybe there's a rule against it? I came from Tennis and obviously some of those shots are already missed winning oppurtunities. Or maybe this sport is just dumb, and I don't get it.

@@jairustablanza348 You said it: You don't get it. Try playing for a while and then see if you still don't get it.

Everything always looks so easy until you do it. It looks weird to me, too, and it is probably overdone lately, but The tendency to hit overheads fairly softly seems to have evolved just less than a year ago, and I can think of a couple of reasons for it. Firstly, the defense among these players has gotten so good that they will return a smash almost every time, so the idea is to go for numbers, expecting they will make a mistake before you do, which, if you're at the kitchen lien and they're at the baseline, is a good bet. But if you're really wailing on overheads, _you_ are more likely to make a mistake first. Also, hitting several similar shots at different speeds can throw your opponent's timing off, and cause them to miss an easy shot, sort of like a change up in Baseball.

@@pickleballer1729 Wouldn't that make this sport play very similarly to badminton then?

Pretty much everything! Here are the most important differences: The pickleball court is much smaller -- the same size as a badminton court. Pickleball is played with paddles which have a solid face, not rackets with strings. The scoring is different. The pickleball ball is a hard whiffleball -- and the ball is different for playing indoors and outdoors.

@@ProfessorB. So it's kind of like Rugby VS Football?

​@@Seanny_Bea_Goodit's kind of like baseball vs wiffle ball lmao

You watched that entire reel, and what you saw was a low intensity sport? DFW wrote about hitting the ball around with top-100 tennis pros, concluding that if you aren't down at court level, you haven't got the least clue how fast the game is really going. It's exactly the same thing with pickleball, only moreso. The lofty camera angle used to film pickleball distorts the frenetic pace of the hand battles even more than the lofty camera distorts the true speed of tennis professionals. What's different in pickleball is that the ball slows down a lot more from baseline to baseline (the flight time in both sports is comparable), making it possible to pastiche together a desperate defense for far longer. You also can't bounce the ball so high in the air off a smash that the ball becomes truly unplayable, either. In tennis, after a proper kill shot, everyone relaxes and heads for their water bottles. In doubles pickleball, there really isn't such a thing as a perfect kill shot. Every attempt at a kill shot is another opportunity for the defending team to dig deep for another round of desperately intense heroics. I grew up in the Golden Age of the Arcade. I pretty much quit the arcade when Mortal Kombat showed up on the scene, and it was the only game anyone else was playing. You looked over at that screen, and half the time the player was standing around to watch the same old cutscene of another severed head and dangling spine raised to the rafters as it dripped blood. Standing around, buffing your nails to dripping blood, pixellized, for the hundredth time in a row. Oh, how intense! I didn't play games with cutscenes. I didn't play any of those half-action games. I played games where the _actual_ action was nonstop, until this new definition of "intense" drove me out of the arcade once and for all. Tennis is more like Mortal Kombat. If that's how you perceive intensity-as residing more in the cutscene _between_ rallies-you'll simply never get pickleball.

Falls...that is the right choose of words! A lot of volleyball players end up on the floor when with better foot work it shouldn't have happened! I played volleyball by myself and rarely ended up hitting the floor on a 30x30!Ever see Ben Johns on the floor? Nope!

@@kayakair1 Well... we all can't be as good as YOU obviously are. But I'd say Allyce deserves some credit getting to the 5.0+ level that most of us only aspire to.

A.N. You totally missed my point!

Yep, I was getting really ticked at the guy who was practically running across and stealing shots from his female partner constantly. Ironically, he ended up losing the point.

Exactly. That white t-shirt uncle from #6 was taking all the shots from his lady partner.

You can hit the ball in the no-volley zone only if it bounces first.

Smaller court, more fun. They’re definitely not lazy.

table tennis is very different. it's more mini tennis

Lazier than tennis players lol

Hardly lazier. You get every bit as good a workout with pickleball as tennis. And yes, I play tennis.

No,the ball won't bounce off the sand........Sorry

What he said!

you deliberately ignore my meaning trying to be a smartass

@@waynegreen5707 Yeah I’m wondering how they even play tennis at the beach lol

There is a beach game sort of close; I think it's called paddleball. The paddles and balls are very similar, but since you can't bounce the ball, the net is higher and smashes are allowed up to the net. Sort of a cross between Pickleball and Volleyball. It might even be legal to set, but I don't think so. I've never played it, but have seen it played from a distance.

You can't even spell pádel correctly and we're supposed to value your critique?

@@steveiannazzo5451 Pádel is spanish! Paddle tennis is english. Maybe I'm wrong, since my first language is Spanish. It's okay to make a mistake when writing a word, but your attitude is pathetic.Moreover, it was not a criticism, it was an observation.

Yes, but you still have to qualify via living somewhere that is being rapidly gentrified by hipster white people.

Totally agree. Doubles is boring to watch. Singles is better, but still. Much more fun to play than to watch.

ahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahah

Ridicoloussssssssssssssssssssssssss

Yes the sound is borderline ridiculous

It's not even that loud yo. It's super fun. Get super intense.

I like the sound

The sound doesn’t bother me, but if they made a quieter ball that played the same, I wouldn’t mind.

😂😂😂😂😂😂 people will look for literally anything to criticize
