haha

Probably. Does it matter?

It’s addictive.

@@user-rx9wd2lk3t I use to play ping pong not much different

@dalehoke it is more addictive partially because of social aspect

sure about what?

@@ThePickleballPirates thats it's 5.0 you guys look like pros

None of them have DUPR above 5.5

You are not. According to your comment likely will never be. You just do not understand it after 2 months. This is pretty common.

@ThePickleballPirates I respectfully disagree as I've played this way many times. Only thing different is we don't hit the net or out of bounds as quickly as these guys do. Our volleys last longer and get more intense.

You can disagree as much as you want, but these are pro level players (not top pro, but still). And the very fact that you see yourself about the same level clearly shows that you just do not understand it, which is again very common among beginners like you. Even for pro tennis players it usually takes about a year to get to this level. You play this way only in your head (as many people do). Record yourself on video and watch. That would be very eye-opening experience, we promise. If you still respectfully disagree, please just publish your play video as a proof. Otherwise this is a keyboard competition :)

@ThePickleballPirates I get it. Watching Pickleball TV on Prime. Always watch the tournaments. They play more like we do

You sure play just short of how Ben Johns plays :) Record yourself. You will be surprised. You would be pickled by any of these teams.

Our pleasure!

These are. How would you know?

They’re not 4.5s, most likely in the 5.0-5.5 range, especially the purple shirt guy.

it is just one point. That happens.

@@ThePickleballPirates I understand lol. Just found it funny. A couple hits I swear she could have gone for it instead but nah

And she missed the one that came to her sooo

That would be her backhand and it is mixed doubles

Because it is ClearOne

do not force yourself :) If you really trying we'd recommend to play instead of watching.

@@ThePickleballPirates Thank you for responding. I actually think it is great that people are getting on the PB court. Because of back and hip issues I have gone from being able to hit with Futures players to just kind of teaching and not playing much. Is pickleball actually harder on the hips and backs since the ball does not bounce very high. The smaller court is great but it looks like it could be harder on the body with all the bending to get low balls. Not sure any court sport is good for bad hips and backs. Your thoughts?

It all depends on the level you play at. At lower levels it does not put much strain on your body compared to other racket sports provided you play doubles only. At advanced level it is as every other sport, not as bad as tennis for your back, but still. The main difference is it requires a lot of lateral movement rather running. Watch senior pros playing to get an idea.

Yes, the guy in black is about 4.5 and his partner is 5.5

I thought that was pretty cool of them. They wanted a good match.

If you think so, you are most likely unrated beginner who would be pickled by these players. Many beginner think for some reason, than they play just slightly worse than Ben Johns. Recording yourself on video and watching helps a lot.

So I would get pickled by these guys that keep hitting their 3rd shot drop in the net? I don’t think so. What is your email? I can send you some games from tomorrows 4.5+ tournament that I’m in.

How long you been playing? These guys are legitimate 4.5 players except maybe guy in black.

2 guys here are 5.5s

in our experience most comments are usually completely wrong as they come from low level players with little experience. Experienced ones do not comment as actually there is no fault to talk about. You can watch frame by frame too using <> keys.

Bad habit

it is possible that he did as we cannot see through his foot from this angle. But if you watch it frame by frame it is highly unlikely.

9 months ago... tough to remember 😆

You need to experience him first hand. We are pretty sure that you suck better

We got mixed response on that. Many people do not like cut out pauses. Those videos usually get less views.

@@ThePickleballPirates you'd know best with the metrics

Right. We'd personally enjoy shortened version better, but majority is not us.

I just double tap the iPhone screen and skip 10 seconds after each play. Take no effort at all

@@NeilSeaver it does take effort and you have to be watching on a mobile device to make it that convenient. think about how often you have to do that...

Nice to meet you, LAME. Thanks for watching!

that's why it is legal

@@ThePickleballPirates lots of paddles are legal. That doesn’t make them Gen 3. I get that it’s legal. That’s great. But calling it a “100% legal gen 3 paddle” will definitely mislead some people. They might think they’re getting a gen 3 paddle that doesn’t have the legality issues that the Joola Gen 3s had. When they’ll actually just be getting a Gen 2 paddle.

@@douglasmurdoch7247 They did it on purpose

Thank you for info :-) 😀 - Joey

Yeah, everyone should read your spiteful nonsense comments instead, anonymous troll. As you are 3.0 at best Joey is definitely good enough for you.

People wanna know: is he a pickleball [butt] pirate?
