Please provide more of these concise video topics…thank you!

[@BrionesPickleball]

Thanks!

[@dougniwa8886]

Thank you! Great video. I see that I have been doing more of a roll flick, coming over the ball as I flick my wrist. I will keep my roll flick for occasions when I want to push the ball down with topspin, but will incorporate a straight flick as well for hitting spots like shoulders and chest.

[@BrionesPickleball]

Yes!

[@lazyhusband]

Hey! I just saw this dude on Tuesday Night Pickleball!

[@BrionesPickleball]

lol sweet

[@greggeatros6384]

Great advice yet again! Location over power and SLY when deciding when to speed up with rolls whereas prioritize pace on flicks. You guys rock! *FYI it really shows how much Caden has been “working out” his forearm:)

[@BrionesPickleball]

Thanks for watching!

Great my friend 😊

[@airwalkmike]

someone said the paddle head needs to be pointed down, why is that? are they right or wrong?

[@BrionesPickleball]

It really depends. Technically, for the BH flick, your paddle will be pointed in more of a 45 degree angle. But it depends on the height of the ball

[@joshuapickett1234]

Great video as always man. Just curious why you like the Luxx over other Selkirk paddles? I’ve really been trying to decide between the Luxx invikta and vanguard control. I know you’ve played both and am curious what swayed you towards one over the other? (Also excited for the amped pro even though I know that’s gonna be more if an all court paddle as opposed to these control paddles)

[@BrionesPickleball]

Amped pro is a power paddle. I like the Luxx because it suits my game (resets and control).

[@tinamarles1035]

great video (as always!!!) - Question: do you have any recommendations for exercises to strengthen the wrist and forearm??? Preferably ones that do not require a gym !! That would be super helpful!!!!

[@Rigor031385]

7:05 they get into it a little bit 😂😂😂

[@BrionesPickleball]

Great suggestion!

[@Orbitald]

3:58 what about a lob to the far corner? Great video!!! TY!

[@BrionesPickleball]

That’s a good option as well!

[@btreese7]

How do you decide to flick vs roll on your backhand volley? Height of the ball...time to prepare? btw....watching you right now. Up 8--7 in game 2 vs the Johns....keep it up. Good luck in Game 3!!!

[@BrionesPickleball]

We’ll have to mention on a future video!

[@danielbonca7591]

Hey Jordan quick question for you so is a push dink basically a flat dink ? Or is a push dink a dink with spin ? Just wondering I’m tying to understand it a bit more.

[@BrionesPickleball]

For me, it’s a more flat deeper dink. Some other players have different vocabulary

[@danielbonca7591]

@@BrionesPickleball okay I see what you mean Thanks for the help really appreciate it. I did have a follow up question about what you said So basically it’s just a dink going deep to the feet basically would that be right ? Also would it be an aggressive dink too then ?

[@HowieB-isMe3885]

are flicks mainly used on slow balls?

[@BrionesPickleball]

Primarily

[@jtgreenwood4915]

Is Cadens left foot always on the kitchen line when he volleys? hahaha. J/K (dont care just messing with you guys) love the videos - great work isolating solid winning skills to work on! Also loved you guys pointing out Zanes backhand flick to the backhand, and the fact that he did it with a downward trajectory was pretty sick.

[@BrionesPickleball]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@y4ngel]

Just saw Caden hit a dirty behind the back reset / counter in the round of 64 ATL PPA, they won the point too. You should ask him about it! lol

I will!
