So if you just started playing pickleball

and you don't have a tennis background you might feel like the most frustrating thing in pickleball is getting lobbed

and completely whiffing your overhead smash.

Well today we're going to try and change that.

I don't have a tennis background either so I've been practicing tons of overhead smashes with my ball machine.

This has been super helpful but I felt like I was still doing something very differently than the pros.

In this video I asked an ex -tennis player to teach me how to hit overheads like he would in tennis.

By the end of this video hopefully we'll be able to do something like this.

Special thank you to Topspin Pro for sponsoring this channel and making this video possible.

All right y 'all today we're making a very important video you've all been here

and that is how to punish lobs yes we all hate lobbers

myself included i so for me

because i didn't come with a tennis background my overheads are boo -boo it's probably i don't tell anyone this

because i don't want people to start lobbing me

but you hit a lob on me i am probably gonna mess

that up nick on the other hand i mean i'll let you kind to talk about your lobs

but um nick is super good with overheads like you try to lob him

yeah it's not it's not coming back

so we're gonna use the titan ball machine to feed us

some lobs nick is gonna coach me through how to hit better overheads

when someone lobs me um

so i'm really excited for this drill um on the machine we have it on the overhead drill

so if you have one of these um just select overhead

and we're gonna run through this together yeah we'll be over there let's set this up sweet okay

so on the app on the overhead app you could see where it tells you to put the ball machine

so uh it's telling me to put the ball machine on the baseline tee that was better

okay so watch another one of mine yeah

it's all about timing yeah i'm just waiting with it loaded yeah

and then as soon as i go i release okay

that's it go again load it's a little bit better load

you take all of these i should take those

i'm not gonna hit any of these am i hitting it early

or something yeah your time is just off right now

so do i need to hit earlier or later let me have a look earlier hit earlier yeah

oh yes snap yeah earlier there you go earlier yeah hit earlier load and hit early got it

yeah there you go you can hear the snap yeah

there you go wait it's a lot earlier than you think that was awkward yeah um nice all right you go

ah yeah so load load and then transfer and hit early it's early yeah

because it takes time to swing uh -huh

so you have to swing a little bit before dude yours sounds

so different oh my god it sounds crisp

i think the cops are coming i think gunshots are firing over here i'm gonna pause it real quick

so nick could kind of do a deep dive in terms of technique yeah for sure

i'll replay some of this footage for you guys in slow motion of nick

you don't want to see my slow -mo

but maybe i'll do a side by side

but i want nick to kind of just nerd out

and kind of walk me

and walk you guys through yeah the exact technique of what he saw me yeah

because i'm sure you know a little bit yeah

so i mean what you were kind of doing was you were kind of just sitting there

and like falling off of it you weren't transferring the weight anywhere um

so basically what we want to do is as soon as we see the ball go up

we want to into what's called trophy position trophy position

so trophy position is we're just going to tuck this right arm

and then we're going to have our left arm pointing at the ball

and we're going to turn sideways straight away yeah

so this is trophy position right here okay and then

when we're in this we'll just carry on pointing at the ball wherever it is the whole time yeah

and we'll either move backwards

or forwards for where it's going to be in our strike zone uh -huh

and then we know that we can then load onto

that back leg and then spring up and transfer our weight onto

that left leg there oh okay

so you just had a little bit lack of transfer

but once you get

that down you know you're pointing at the ball correctly you got it in the right zone you're shuffling backwards,

and then when you're in the position, load onto that leg

and transfer through and also another thing as well

that i saw was you were hitting a bit late

so all you had to do a quick fix was just swing a bit earlier yeah

and you could just tell even just by the sound how much harder

you were hitting it there can i hit a couple like

shadow ones for you to kind of show you yeah that's right i think the tip

that helped me a lot was the swinging earlier earlier yeah

because i wasn't sure i'm like loading i'm focusing on the loading

and i'm like hitting the ball here so i'm shanking it upwards but load there goes the fun

that's why i don't play with my phone so like here loading

and then swing early yeah

and what you're doing as well is you're turning your hips very fast

so you're going like this i want it to be more of a load

and then on to that other leg

so you're kind of just like you're just turning

i'm doing a rotation yes i want it to be more of a load and transfer onto that other foot okay

so load transfer but you did a little hop there okay so you did like a little bunny hop

but i want you to just load it's nice

and simple you just keep it simple it's good

so load onto the other foot okay load no

so i want you to once you land i want you to finish like this on my left foot

and just hold the balance there on your left foot okay i was trying to load

and hop to my right foot yeah load on my right foot transferred to my wait hold on

but don't bring

that right foot back through yet i just want

you to yes just hold it on there oh it's just a rocking yes exactly okay

so it's uh it's load yes exactly because you're just transferring

that weight load there you go oh i see yeah

so it's here and there

so you should be able to just be balanced there after the swing yes

but instead of like a lunge forwards uh -huh

100

you can literally be on the same spot i don't even have to move oh really like

101

if you look at me yeah i'm not moving forwards like you are i'm stationary um

102

but i'm just transferring the weight onto the other leg yes

103

there you go so just transfer all of it to that other leg

104

load is this like up uh yeah so it's here oh

105

and then go up onto the other one

106

so rather than go forwards go up and then onto

107

that other leg okay

108

so ultra simplifying it explaining it like i'm five is here trophy stance rock yeah

109

there's just kind of this yes

110

and as soon as your paddle drops you kind of get

111

that natural motion yeah but the mechanic of it is really just

112

all it is is

113

so you're obviously straight on at the kitchen turn sideways trophy

114

position load on the back leg transfer weight to the front leg that's all it is okay let's try

115

that let's turn this bad boy up okay so let's run

116

that back and now i'm going to implement nick's tips

117

and i'll put my phone here um nick let's do this as like a double drill okay

118

so we'll play this like we're playing a real person whoa that's way better yes okay that's

119

just transfer that transfer transfer transfer wow

120

and you can see like sometimes i'm not even hopping yeah

121

but i'm still transferring my weight yeah like just from back to front

122

so i want you're hitting a lot of them flat on uh -huh oh

123

we need to get sideways more sideways oh yeah go sideways it's gonna feel awkward at first uh -huh

124

but look sideways there you go oh sideways there you go oh yeah baby and get that wrist snap as well yeah

125

you oh there we go i uh yeah that's a shot

126

so you want to feel like your arms a little loose as well uh -huh um

127

so you can get wrist lag on the smash as well

128

there you go i feel like it's really snappy yeah okay go oh god no go sideways more sideways

129

and swing early go sideways sideways you go

130

good i think i my mind gets all jangled up

131

when i go sideways yeah you look like you're turning on contact as well

132

you're still hitting it face on i want you to hit it when you're sideways yeah stay sideways stay sideways yeah

133

interesting stay sideways uh -huh i mean

134

if you can hit it straight on that's probably a little bit more advanced

135

but you need to go sideways first yeah you're turning you're opening up oh

136

so what you're doing is this and you're turning yeah if you watch this next one

137

i'm sideways oh the whole time i just realized something let me pause this

138

because i just realized when you say sideways i'm looking at your shoulders yeah

139

and you keep saying sideways but when i see you you're doing here

140

and here yeah and i think i think you're hitting here

141

because i'm looking at your shoulders

142

but your hips yes you're talking about your hips stay sideways

143

but your core goes i mean your upper body you're here

144

and then you do turn through with the top what you're

145

doing is you're opening your hips as you're swinging through

146

because i'm watching you and i see you do this yeah

147

and in my mind i saw you do this yeah

148

but you're saying stay sideways with your hips but you're finishing twisted yeah

149

so you can finish through but look my hips are still pretty much closed ah okay

150

so i'm here and then i'm there whereas what you're doing is you go in here

151

so you're like early early releasing your hips i didn't realize the hip part okay let me let's try

152

that again try to keep your hips a little bit

153

i'm gonna keep my hips uh more close like this facing me i'm doing this yeah

154

so hips facing nick yeah right so i'm here

155

and then turn I'm coming

156

and then I turn that's it that's a precision okay

157

so stay sideways sideways yes oh that's

158

so weird here we go awkward

159

it's hard to do on the move yeah same again super awkward still can i see you do it yeah sure

160

i don't even need to move because i've got

161

so much weight transfer

162

and you look like you're quite

163

you look like you're like really stiff on your arm yeah

164

i want you to look how loose i am ready

165

so i want you to be more loose like a noodle like your your wrist should feel really loose yeah

166

so then you can get that lag so kind of loosen up your wrist a little bit

167

that was you got more on that yeah it's not the right

168

so it's all about timing on contact

169

you look really rigid yeah like you look like you're trying to like kind of like muscle it yeah

170

when it's not muscle it's just like fluid noodley technique noodley technique yeah

171

it's just like like just to do some shadows where you're just going like this

172

and your wrist feels really loose yeah so look it's just really loose

173

if you look at my wrist yeah good so it's just this motion show me

174

yeah and what you're doing as well on your take back is you're going here

175

and then through uh -huh just bring it back here more and then have it here waiting and then go

176

yeah that's better so i bring it more here rather than here

177

when you i don't uh

178

when you say here can you like put words to where yeah

179

so shoulder what you're doing is you're bringing

180

it kind of in an upward arc this way into this trophy position

181

i want you to do more like underneath okay what's underneath what

182

so you're going this way okay i want you to go more here okay coming from

183

because you're creating a loop where you can gather oh like this way yes oh

184

so not up and down yeah but you're saying down

185

and then and up yeah because

186

if you're there you go i've never heard want to say

187

that before that one so not up and then down

188

but down more like this and then up yeah and then

189

because this is where you gain the power right here in this motion here it's where you go here yeah

190

and then you let that wrist lag and then you come back through because

191

if you go here yeah you have to muscle

192

it now you have to muscle that's what i always felt it's not muscle it's just looseness

193

which you gain you get all the power from this motion here oh

194

so it's like you're making a circle kind of yeah like instead of drawing like a half crescent

195

and going back this way you're going more

196

you're saying going like maybe like a maybe like a half circle where it's like back yeah

197

and then over yeah

198

because honestly like on some of them it just should feel like it's more open here

199

and then you gather here into the trophy position oh yeah yeah

200

and it should feel looser yeah yeah so just

201

that feels way looser yeah that's why i couldn't i'm like i feel loose but i still don't

202

i'm not executing if you watch

203

so i'm basically drawing smiley face with my arms okay like here

204

so look here that's a smiley face right there

205

and then i'm getting it into the trophy position there

206

and i'm storing up energy basically and then i'm just releasing through okay

207

so it should be here here get in the trophy position

208

then go through okay i'll just look let me see smiley face

209

but you're kind of like going like this i want you to be more open like this okay

210

so not smiley face this way but smiley face yeah this way so watch my arm here ready so i'm here

211

i'm opening it this might sound weird

212

but can you do it for me in my arms yeah like

213

when i learn stuff yeah i'm a very visual

214

and feel okay okay sideways sideways so it's content open oh

215

and then trophy position yeah and then through okay

216

so open it up first and then store that energy

217

and then release okay so we have a take back there where we're opening storing

218

that energy story and then we're letting it lag and go through

219

so watch this motion here ready

220

so you're here rock it back there okay yes that's it

221

so smooth back get it in that trophy position through okay oh

222

so basically three part sequence yeah so sideways smooth back

223

when we're up here second part sequence trophy position load on

224

that back leg yeah third part is transfer through and get

225

that wrist snap yeah i mean you know you won't get it straight away um

226

but with some practice you can definitely get

227

it yeah we'll play a few more clips of nick hitting his overheads

228

but this is something

229

that i will need to put some work into it i think a lot of us do like

230

if you don't come from tennis this is something we actively have to practice yeah um

231

but still worth it because i mean overheads man yeah i shank

232

so many of those because getting wrist lag doesn't just happen straight away

233

or as quick as other shots you know you have to develop

234

that yeah um so you know this one will definitely take a few more repetitions yeah definitely

235

but uh guys i hope you enjoyed that um thanks to nick for giving

236

that really in -depth overhead it's really this is like really probably elementary stuff for tennis players

237

but for pickleball there's like you know a lot of us don't come from

238

that but yeah if you enjoyed

239

that give this guy a like subscribe on his channels um

240

and then we'll come out with more stuff for you guys that's right

241

All right, see you guys next time.

242

See ya.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
