You do not aim on the front wall to get repetitive quality depth as this will change depending on how are you are away from the front wall and how hard you hit it. Similarly you do not aim where you want it to finish, you aim where you want the first bounce to land. Do this and your targets will improve dramatically.

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.

Thanks

It is always good to stop and think why a player lost or won a rally not just look at the scoreboard. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

Thanks

More interesting videos coming. Glad you liked it.

Thanks

Let me know how you go

Your shuffle also happens just after you hit, well before your opponent can hit the ball so you move a great distance with minimal effort then make court position to cover the next shot.

Don't think they ever have, it is a Tennis club so not as much maintenance on squash as Tennis

Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks

Upwards not down. But you know what I mean!

@@BhaveshPatel-mx5pm As you get better it mostly comes down to smaller swing and stronger muscle engagement, the turning your left hand upside down engages your body from the start.

It works amazingly well. It can transform your game if you have been having trouble with your forehand.

There should be something for everyone no matter the standard. Thanks for the feedback

You are welcome.

Quick, insightful and entertaining tips and the transition clips are a bonus. Thanks for your feedback, it means a lot that you take the time to let others know your thoughts.

Thanks for the feedback I am still trying to work out if people like the SquashFit tv format and if it is wort the huge time commitment to make them.

@@squashanalysis5670 I like it but I've seen these bits on your other videos; I've seen the majority and some I've viewed several times. I can appreciate it takes a lot of your time though.

@@swingeasyguy I have plenty of new SquashFit tv resource on the way, I was experimenting up till now to get the formular right so I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Happy for an feedback of how to make hem better.

@@squashanalysis5670 Looking foward to them, will let you know of suggestions, Happy New Years!

Yep, that is exactly what you do in a high paced game. The trick is to have an engaged body as you get back to the T allowing a strong split.

​@squashanalysis5670 so may be I need to lean my torso forward even under pressure

Everything is about keeping your wrist in line with the floorboard, using body turn early and then not much after impact. Your wrist comes in to become connected to your core muscles on impact generating strength through the shot and your wrist brings the racquet to the right line with a flowing movement rather than a sudden flick, follow through is then toward the front wall. Hope this helps.

I didn't understand it when I was young, just wanted to hit hard but when you get to a certain standard it is critical making the difference between winning and losing. If I had learnt this earlier I may have been so much better.

Thanks, just using different methods to teach the same message and it all comes together to form a strong understanding of the critical components of the swing.

I have made hundreds of short clips like this so as long as the SquashFit tv format is popular with views and likes I will make more. Glad it helped you.

Glad you lied it. I will do more as long as I get the views and likes.

By lowering the head it looks more like a drive than a usual boast very deceptive and quick

@kiwikiwi223 looks like a driver? I never drop the racket head if I wanna hit a drive

@MsSly66 it happens to fast for you to see. Win points off boasts like this all day opponent can't read them

@@kiwikiwi223 What do you mean? When I hit a drive, I can't get the racket head down properly, either quickly or slowly. The fact that in the first phase of the swing, the racket head lags behind the forearm movement and ends up lower than its starting position is another issue. Proper execution of an attacking boast shot also involves trying to conceal for as long as possible that the ball will head toward the side wall and not the front wall. This is achieved by a sudden change of direction with the wrist.

@MsSly66 the drive is usually hit with the racket being parallel with the floor when you hit it. keep practicing especially with the angle of the racket to hit the ball towards the wall instead of hitting the ball at the wall.

Definitely where it lands, you use the front wall as a height gauge so you can get a consistent outcome at the pace you normally hit. Depth is critical and if you can hit tight to the wall depth there is no stopping you. You can hit too deep as well so control of depth is a elite player skill which takes a lot of time to master so start now.

@@squashanalysis5670 😊

This will change everything for your boast, you will never look back. Just don't go crazy with it, there is a reason boasts are used sparingly in PSA squash, get it slightly wrong and you open yourself up so make sure you have good body control before choosing to boast.

The cut holds the ball on the racquet longer giving greater feel and control. It will help the ball die slightly quicker with the rubber ball reacting to the cut spin making it drop when it hits a wall. You can hit hard as long as you keep it low and it will still have 2 bounces on the floor as long as you aim it right but dropping the pace slightly will give more control and help it die.

I wish I knew then all that I know now.

Thanks, you can not do this unless you have time on the ball and capable muscle control. I try and keep the content with modern concepts and engaging. Merry Christmas from Australia.

​@@squashanalysis5670 Yes exactly. You probably have to have 4000+ squash level to do this. Before you get to that level there are more fundamental problems you have to solve. Note: The concept you are describing in the video shortens your swing and increases your power and therefore makes the player hit the ball with power out of situations in the back where you have less space.

@@yelow989898 I see it as having multiple uses like the situation you described but it also used coming off the ball from the front forehand and can be felt if you concentrate on getting out not on the hit and you will activate your exit muscles earlier. It is useful if you find yourself too close to the ball but does require trained muscles as you suggested. As soon as players realize true power and control comes from muscle strength not racquet speed shots like this are very attainable. I can tell you are an accomplished player and it is always good to get opinions from experienced higher level players. Thanks.

Thanks so much, I do like to coach when I travel having coached in Singapore, India, Austria and in many states in Australia. I will keep it in mind for future trips. If you can share this video on your club socials that would help me greatly, thanks for the kind comments.

You snap to a very strong body position at point of impact often giving you a fully extended arm even when the ball is close resulting in power. Everything is about the point of impact and full body engagement.

Ok. Thanks. Think it will take some practice!

Salty cause you suck at the sport?

This is an inform Reload 135NT from squash.com.au and I am using the original strings it comes with so I am not sure of the tension, check out the web site.

@squashanalysis5670 Thanks. Please do more review of new squash rackets so that viewers can make better decisions when purchasing the rackets. Hope more manufacturers can provide you with their new rackets for testing too. Great videos.

For a deep volley you straight line your wrist more coming through the line of the ball finishing with a short follow through. For a drop volley you cut with an open face and take the pace off the ball.

@@squashanalysis5670 Makes great sense, thanks!

Yep, video swing analysis is very popular and at an unbelievable price with guaranteed results email me garry@squashanalysis.com

@@squashanalysis5670 will do at some point, thanks!

Glad you liked it, depth is the key to winning matches, watch the change in your game after you master it.

You are right the backhand is harder, practice, practice, practice! Thanks for the feedback.

When you get the rhythm and timing of the movements all will be comfortable and super energy efficient. You can mix it up with dots in different areas as you have and remember to train mostly at the back backhand where most of the play is and where it is most difficult to get power requiring greater body prep.

@@squashanalysis5670 Thanks!

You will be surprised how much better your depth will become.

Enjoy the challenge.

That is only on the preview frames at the start, all info is listed in the text on the floor as the full video lays. Glad you enjoyed it.

It does require weekly 5 minute sessions as part of your coaching session until it is locked in thanks for liking the video and your feedback.

Thanks for taking the time to let me know you enjoyed the content.

Watch the difference by having someone hit a couple of forehand drives then do the push test and watch the power and control of the next forehand hits, it is unbelievable how good this is. Thanks for your input.
