JUst in 1:21 seconds, and I love this video already!!!!!!!!!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Awesome! Thanks for the comment

[@teegees]

Love it! Question: Do you usually want your hit to peak before it hits the wall?

[@tonygrego347]

Wow, congrats, this is one of the best videos for self improvement in pickleball that i've seen! Any blessings!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Wow, thank you! Thanks for the comment

[@crownator]

Watched your video right before heading to the gym to do some wall practice in one of the racquetball courts since it's raining today in "sunny" SoCal. :) How perfect that your video was also shot in an Rball court! Your drills really helped add some spice and structure to my practice session and I especially loved the "corner drill" since the unpredictability of the ball's bounce really made it realistic - thanks so much for that great idea as well as your other ones. Just signed up for your 30 day challenge and looking forward to being a better player in a month. Thank you!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thanks for the comment and for signing up! I’m glad the drills helped!

[@rhondaarbolante2640]

I've seen a lot of wall drills but never one on overheads. I can't wait to get out and try that. Thanks!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Awesome! I hope it helps! Thanks for the comment.

[@krgreenwood]

Can’t wait to try these. They all look like that will help so much!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thanks for the comment! Let me know if they help!

[@theresarolwes9728]

Very well done! Simple, straightforward and easy to learn.

[@HighFivePickleball]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@sarahkaip]

Love this. I too practice in racquetball courts. I also practice serving from corner to corner. The balls always roll right back to me. Hey, my pinky hurts from playing pickleball. I wonder if I'm holding the racquet wrong. Any tips?

[@HighFivePickleball]

Maybe loosen your grip some?

[@dawnraymondhirn2866]

Excellent instructions! Especially for beginners.

[@HighFivePickleball]

Glad you think so!

[@janmills54]

Great drills! These have really helped my game, especially working on “fast hands” for volleying

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thanks! Those are some of my favorites

[@chuckschmidt3522]

This was extremely helpful!!! I just started playing a little more than a month ago and have only played about once a week, each week. My game has improved but with my frequency of play it's a slow process. Thank you for putting this video together! Now to search for a wall to use that's nearby home...

[@HighFivePickleball]

You're very welcome! Thank you for shaeing

[@lisacreechbledsoe2124]

Good content! I especially liked the addition of that last bit -- hand toss up/down and catch. Thanks!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Glad you liked it! Thank you for the comment!

[@paxkat1968]

Well done! Love your training tips. Is the video played at normal speed?

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thank you! There are some moments that are full speed and others are slowed down

[@marciapelton7119]

Throwing and Catching the ball off the wall. All drills were helpful and easy to watch

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thank you!

[@larrychasteen9732]

All good, but doing in my garage so can't do the corner exercise (too much other stuff in garage) or the overhead (ceiling not high enough). Any suggestions on other wall exercises for the overhead?

[@HighFivePickleball]

Let me think on that and get back to you

[@denisebrown2940]

Great video all around. I like the short workout drills in-between practice sets.

[@fkporsche1]

Lovin it. Thank you. Have been practicing your drills. Even bought a pickleball rebounder from rebounder AZ. can’t wait to try it with my own rebounder. No need to drive to the nearest school handball wall. 😅

[@HighFivePickleball]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@fkporsche1]

Excellent tutorial video. Thanks

[@HighFivePickleball]

You're welcome! Thanks!

[@vley5877]

Any suggestions on where we should be aiming at the wall when we are trying to practice deep overheads (at opponent's feet or at least not mid court)?

[@HighFivePickleball]

Hey V Ley, great question. It depends on your distance from the nvz line. If I’m a few feet away from the kitchen I will aim 18” or a little more higher from the net height.

[@no.9530]

Hi, is the ideal place to practice these drills in a racquetball court? If I practice in the garage that's most likely made of concrete bricks it seems like the concrete absorbs too much of the hit and the ball kinda dies. Any suggestions about ideal practice surfaces?

[@HighFivePickleball]

Somewhere that you won’t bother anyone with the noise 🤣

[@tbforester]

Good stuff. Never thought about using the corner! Of course that's perfect for drilling!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thanks for the comment!

My pleasure! Thank you!

[@carolzanoff5628]

Excellent! I especially liked the one on overhead one-just need to find a good, high wall to practice on!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thanks Carol! Yep, high ceilings helps. Good luck!

Nice work. Definitely going to be practicing some of these on vacation. 🙌🔥

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thanks! That's awesome!

[@noradwyer9331]

Just found your channel, appreciate all your tips. Can u explain the corner drill in a bit more detail? Is it trying to hit the front wall or close to the corner? Not quite sure. Thanks so much!!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Sure, the goal is for the ball to hit the corner and to bounce in a way you don’t expect that way you can practice responding and returning the ball quickly while also maintaining control. Hope that helps!

[@noradwyer9331]

@@HighFivePickleball yes, that helps, thanks.

[@EJR898989]

just finished my first little session of drills in the racquetball court. Wish I would have watched this first and brought some tape! So few places to play indoors over winter where I live and have been thinking “what can i do on empty racquetball courts?” Spring just around the corner! I was thinking of setting up banner and doing “dink only” games. I may definitely do that after i spend some time with drills!

[@HighFivePickleball]

Awesome! Thanks for the comment!

Great video! I am going to practice like this.

[@HighFivePickleball]

[@GT4JB]

Great video, have a local wall that will work great. Trying to learn on court in play is not very effective! I think most of us make the mistake of this. I am interested in your online courses

[@HighFivePickleball]

Awesome! Thanks for the comment!

[@bobotto1786]

Thank you, great drills, I especially like the corner drill and conditioning exercises.

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thanks Bob! I hope they help. Thanks for the comment.

[@jisforjoy3314]

Cool! I have been doing similar drills in the same room recently. But I am going to add corner drills and overhead drills.

[@HighFivePickleball]

Nice! Thanks for the comment!

[@stephenbraverman4484]

Excellent advice

[@HighFivePickleball]

Thank you!

[@oneslymike]

Great video - thank you! Just confirming that your taped NVZ line is indeed 7 feet from the wall - maybe the video angle distorts this, but it looks like if you laid down on the ground starting at the wall you'd be longer than that line, and I don't think you are 7 feet tall??

[@HighFivePickleball]

The video distorts the view. It’s 7 feet. Thanks for the comment!

[@salliejensen7397]

It would be outstanding if you can make part 2 and 3 on this wall drills.(footworks etc) 😊

[@HighFivePickleball]

Great idea! I’ll do that :)

[@fkporsche1]

I like you provided how many times on each drill. Watching your video 5x. 😊

[@HighFivePickleball]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@user9b2]

Would it be bad to use practice balls that are likely not to specs but are way cheaper?

[@HighFivePickleball]

I would practice with what you play with but I also understand if you need to save money. Balls ain’t cheap!

[@rongarrison3246]

I learned how to juggle to help my coordination and have some really similar drills I practice with. Also I've started doing tracking practice with my eyes. Kinda like a professional hockey goalie does.

[@HighFivePickleball]

Nice! That’s pretty cool! Did either of those help? Thanks for the comment.

[@rongarrison3246]

As for the juggling I can't say for sure that it helped but safe to assume that it definitely didn't hurt. For the eye tracking practice I got to say it definitely helps. It helps me get that split second to make sure I'm taking the right shot instead of kinda haphazardly throwing my arm and hoping I cough it up. It might only give me a millisecond but in a firefight at the net that's plenty enough time to win the point.

[@anncondon280]

Excellent video, I'm going to follow. Wrote down video info.

Thanks for the comment, can you rephrase your question please?

[@rupalpatel9301]

@@HighFivePickleball when you are practicing backhand wall drills , do you keep your paddle slightly slanted?

should you also be practicing the net at 34 inches instead of 36?

[@HighFivePickleball]

The net near the posts are 36in and the middle is 34in

could you show more backhand speed up?

What does 3 sets of 60 seconds mean exactly?

Noticed you are lifting your body as you hit the ball which you should avoid. Only your shoulder should do the work
