[@AndrewMycol]

so basically this is like tennis and ping pong mashed together? Interesting

[@Riley-qg6or]

Ya it’s fun as hell

[@danthelambboy]

Yeah it looks more fun for the beginner because the ball weight and speed does not require people to strength train as much to up their skill

[@DonIsadick-mf3gv]

Good for the otherwise lethargic.

[@mopar215swp]

More like beach birdie ball & whiffle ball with a sprinkle of beer pong ppl. It's not real fast but slow is smooth and smooth is fast bro. 🤘😈 😂

[@dnsgilbert09]

It depends how good you are a to how fast it is

[@optcyn]

I was given a flyer at my local community center and thought “what the f… is pickle ball?” I grew playing lots of sports and have never heard of pickleball. I had to check it out in on KZbin to see how you play it. Pretty much if tennis and ping pong had a baby. 😄

[@arfriedman4577]

Thanks for explanation. I just recently heard of this. May 2023.

[@lamann2437]

Thanks for sharing the basics! Having my first lesson today!

[@arepitagrande8797]

I thank you for this explanation too. Never heard or read of it until I was having a look at a webside for table tennis in Germany. 😊

[@fallenangeltv6973]

Just got invited to play and had no idea what it was. Thanks, I can’t wait. Looks very fun.

[@HillaryMarek]

Thank you! I thought it was a mix of racquet ball and handball. I was way off. I have only seen it played on old racquet ball courts against a cinder block wall. Now I’m confused but I hope the other videos in the series will explain it. Thank you for making this tutorial free. You are appreciated.

[@shawnharrison513]

Thanks

[@George-nx8zu]

Am I correct in saying that it can only bounce once just like tennis?

[@honeyalbino9283]

Is it like badminton

[@TallMichelleWithTheLongHair]

Looks like tennis with a different ball and racket.

[@XavierKatzone]

I'm still working on Pong!

[@matthewflynn4269]

Im here because matthew perry played fror 2 hours right before he fucking drowned.

[@DonIsadick-mf3gv]

He couldn't handle it. It's a tough sport, harder than rugby or football. Players often pass out from the intense athletic demands on the body.

Never seen PB played on a wood court before. Even indoor courts I've been to are paved & painted.

Why did squash go away? So similar, and what we all learned in school!

They will pickle you, put you in a jar, and that's that. Probably.

It looks like old school hand ball but with a raquet

[@bigrob201111]

It’s great they are getting exercise and all. But we played that for years. 😂😂 It is fun tho.

[@MangkuKNasi]

So this is just a larger scale table tennis

[@CAM.J3]

So it just fuckin Tennis

[@nathanschmidtke5901]

Much harder

[@getreal4real169]

@@nathanschmidtke5901 No it’s not harder than tennis.

How to play pickleball: "Look at it, it's like tennis"

[@YokaiStemikau]

That man, is god.

[@terrymunoztrujillo483]

1 .give up on tennis 2. gain 50 pounds 3. stand around and watch paint dry, it's the same amount of exercise and fun.

[@lkw5699]

Hard to listen when background noise so loud

[@jameskwasi-jl9qw]

So basically its js road tennis

[@vickieden5022]

Makes me thing of a ping pong table that you would stand on

[@ChrisTheSparky]

The whole point of a racket is to let the air through. Have you ever tried to play tennis with your racket cover on..near impossible

[@radicalcenter3902]

Similar to tennis? Blasfemia

[@tcfmarch17]

Seems like tennis to me. I can't really see the difference. I'll have to keep watching.

[@dnsgilbert09]

It's 1/3 of the size of the court. You can't volley the ball in the area near the net, but you have to stand behind the line. Unless you let it bounce first.

[@adamm6889]

‘It’s like a wiffleball’. What the #€$#’s a wiffleball? 😂

[@kaptaink420]

I think the wiffleball is what the little kids hit with the plastic bats

[@HillaryMarek]

Remember in the beastie boys song where he says something like, the sheriffs after me for what I did to his daughter I did her like this I did her like that I did it with a wiffle ball bat….? Well the wiffle ball is the ball that looks just like a pickle ball and it’s hit with a wiffleball bat. Usually played by children in elementary school during physical education classes in the United States.

[@misscookie936]

Why is it called pickle ball?

[@dnsgilbert09]

Look it up on Google

[@Lemi-killmister]

Tennis with a paddle and whiffle ball

[@rc51rider300exc]

Looks like something you'd play at the retirement home..... and I'll stick to racquetball

[@DonIsadick-mf3gv]

Racketball? No, pickle ball is far more intense. And I heard if you lose, a guillotine thing is placed in front of you and you must insert man parts. 😂

[@Glitch-nr9ct]

Pickleball is super fun. You'd get hooked very quickly if you took the stick out of your ass.

[@dnsgilbert09]

Look at the reels on pickleball

[@whatwhat2098]

You mean tennis?

[@georgiabell6220]

Is it just.me.that.knows that when he hits it it went ubove.his.wrist.tjat is one of the main rules in pickle ball lol😂😂😂😂😂

[@Corn-pop11]

Its for people who have too much time on their hands

[@MegaStara]

That ball looks a lot like the floorball ball.

[@NKDV76]

wow the new most boring sport in the world

Wrong! thats that thing where they push a rock " puck" like a shuffleboard thing.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23) For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? (Matthew 16:26) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:9)

Lame game

😒ugh, you lost me at "like a whiffle ball". So, its lazy tennis🙄😂

The way they are showing it is, but that's beginner's pickleball. Look at more people playing on you tube

Start by not playing because it’s not a sport .

Yeah, don’t play this. Notice how they’re all women playing. It’s a slow down version just like badminton which also women play. why not play racquetball. Maybe a little too fast might get hit in the face
