HOW I HIT MY BACKHAND | Q&A BEN JOHNS

[@ChadBrundy]

You are a class act and I thoroughly enjoy watching you play. As an aspiring Senior Pro, you are the ideal person to emulate on and off the court!!! All the best the rest of the season👍🏓

[@chadh8632]

What age is Senior pro? Asking for a middle aged person who wants to leave the rat race who will go unnamed.

[@DavidTexas340]

@@chadh8632 I would think the Senior age requirement for pickleball tournaments generally I’ve heard you had to be 55+ to play in Senior Open Plays at pickleball facilities but that could always vary so you should inquire with PPA

[@tricia3114]

See you soon.

[@PickleballPrime-v2n]

Love how chill you are on and off the court. You are a gracious champion and will forever be enshrined as the PB GOAT. Thank you for taking the time to respond to people's questions and being down to earth. 🔥

[@Benzo1994games]

You are my favorite player on tour I admire your ability to remain calm when I first started watching videos you and your brother were the first match I watched

[@oliviagrace6869]

You and your brother are my favorite to watch and cheering for you guys 🎉

[@tricia3114]

Took me 1.5 years but I finally hit my first Ben Backhand in a game. Omg what a feeling. Thanks for helping all of us.

[@SoonAeBushing]

I enjoy watching you play and you bring new skills to improve your game which is exciting to watch! Classy player❤

[@BajaSurf]

So you do smile...LOL... you are so serious in the court... most of the time. Love you chanel

[@chadh8632]

Ben is chill AF UNTIL the hat goes backwards LOL

[@WinCan22]

How do you know when to use a two hand counter vs a one hand backhand counter and which do you prefer? is it more based on court positioning (someone speeding up the line when you are on the left side/cross court speed up when you are on the right) or is it about the ball placement being out wide of your body vs right at your body? Do you always bring two hands to the paddle when anticipating a shot so that you have the option for both a two hand counter and a one hand counter?

[@BenJohns_pb]

I typically use two when countering attacks down my line (for increased power on the counter), and I also use two when playing defense against high balls. I typically use one for attacking and for countering balls hit at my body

[@t81629]

Any chance you can do a tutorial on the forehand roll/flick? Your backhand one was great. Thank you for inspiring us.

[@BenJohns_pb]

Thanks for contribution! I will see about doing a video on that

[@hakyonglee7836]

thanks bro😊

[@Qluzs]

Ben gave me his gen 3 s from Bristol after beating fed haha

[@jmmgames3624]

day 1 of asking Ben Johns to team up with Gabe Tardio

[@maximiliangazeroglu40]

A video on how to do the topspin backhand dink roll!!

[@Vivaan07959]

Hey Ben why the gen 2 for singles, would u switch to the 3s in the future

[@simplysimplemobiledetailin529]

How many paddles are you bringing to a tournament and how many of them are you actually using?

[@joeypupillo5210]

Post more goat

[@zaf7819]

Ben, how many hours would you guess you play with your 3S doubles paddles before you switch to a new one? Do you break you paddles in for some number of hours before you play with them in a tournament?

[@BenJohns_pb]

I’ve been using them for at least two tournaments plus some practice time. So about the same time as I use the Gen2 for.

[@tykorensky2590]

Hello Ben

[@Gilles-o9o]

Hi Ben, can we expect to see you playing pickleball in Montréal (Canada) ?

[@TheSourcingSamurai]

Back to the Backhand and the Cross-Court dropping to initiate Singles Cat and Mouse.....owned Perseus2,3 and TA-15 so pro Jolla. What was it about the Perseus2 for Singles ?

[@BenJohns_pb]

I still prefer my original paddle for singles because it’s what I feel most control with, particularly stretch volleys.

[@TheSourcingSamurai]

Thank you and those intentional slight edge if sweet spot = a method of disguise where actual speed is less than motion or if hitting drop a little more feathery soft landing.- you are right "Once you use you won't be looking for another paddle" it supports any shot imaginable so thank you. ​@BenJohns_pb

[@Nysoupla]

Wonderful. Hey in doubles, who gets to take big winning 🏆 trophy home? Thanks.

[@polawin-uw3ql]

What is the brand of your ankle brace ?

[@SuperDuperNinja00]

I'm pretty sure it's the Med Spec ASO. It's on Amazon under "Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer"

[@jamescrossman4642]

Come to pictona in Daytona, Fl, I’ll play lefty with u anytime 😂 (I’m a lefty around 4.5)

[@LiamHoyo]

Pls move videos

[@Itsezpickleball]

👌

[@frandeleon5237]

0:34 i think that ball was out

[@shipwreck8847]

Ben you and your sister have so similar facial characteristics. When I look at your sister, I can see your face.

[@chrissavidge6202]

I'm lefty pure I'm a 4.5 I'll play with you

[@TheodenBreathes]

1) Which parts of your game are you working on to improve? 2) Which top pro on the tour do you get the most satisfaction from beating? 😈

[@BenJohns_pb]

1) Two handed backhand in a variety of situations 2) Typically if I lost to them last time I played them there is added satisfaction when winning

[@enriquethompson7569]

[@BenJohns_pb]

I don’t think I’m good enough to do that :)

[@samuraistabber]
