hi welcome to primetime pickleball my name is nicole havlicek in this advanced backhand
upgrade series we're going to talk about three new types of advanced backhand shots that you can add
to your arsenal whatever level you're playing at right now you should always be learning new
things and putting new shots in your tool bag so that you can keep your opponents guessing
because you always have different things to throw at them even jordan and i
as five-o-level players are still today and will always be learning from other players
as well as experimenting and being innovative to learn new shots and skills
that will give us a competitive edge on the court that's what you should be doing too
and that's what this series is all about in this video we'll be covering shot number two of the
series the backhand angled attack please see the description below for links to the
videos on shots number one and three of this backhand upgrade series okay let's get to it
missing one of our videos is like missing an easy put away don't let that be you subscribe now
alright so now let's jump into the second shot that i'm currently learning and working on today
and this is the backhand angled volley off of the court all right so this situation is when you have
both players back and you and your opponent are up so i'm up here at the non-volleys online and
they are on the defense so they're hitting shots to stay in the point either from mid court in the
transition zone or the baseline and what i'm gonna do is instead of hitting it hard and deep to my
opponent's feet i'm going to angle it wide off the cord where it's just going to be unreachable
unreachable and a clear winner all right so let's i'll show you a few points of that now
wow
angled backhand attack shot execution
[Music]
okay all right so like you just saw hopefully you saw a few examples this is a shot that really
angles white off the court and is going to be pretty much a clear winner all right so like i
said this is when your opponents are both back on the defense or they're in the transition zone back
on the defense and instead of hitting it hard at them taking this angle i'm taking this ball early
out in front and then i'm rolling it out wide all right so yeah i hope this video was um just an
interesting one and something really cool you know me as a 50 player i'm still constantly learning
watching film watching the top pros and and learning a lot from them and just little things
i could pick up from them okay so whatever level you are you always want to be pushing yourself
to new heights learning new shots and putting new weapons in your toolbox so that you can take
on the court all right so thanks for watching us in this video and we'll see in the next one
