    I really hope RUclips Nation realizes what's happening on this channel. This isn't just another mid-level tennis pro yakking away. This is one of the best coaches in tennis history is sharing amzingly helpful tips on technique, strategy, and drills. There's light years of difference in the quality of instruction between what's here and what's on other tennis instruction channels. This stuff is absolutely amazing. Not entirely sure why you're doing this, Patrick, but big thanks from all of us who are here to learn.

To promote the camp, he could just half-ass some simple stuff a few times a month and no one would bat an eye. Instead we get this level of commitment and quality. Again, if you're reading this, many, many thanks, Patrick.

      @@spookyroofus Yeah I agree with you this goes beyond just promotion of his academy. He is sharing very in-depth knowledge of his expertise. I'm shocked that he's posting full lessons on a certain stroke. It's almost like taking one yourself if you are good enough to apply it and teach yourself. Most instructors would charge for videos like this! Besides, he doesn't even need much promotion considering he and his academy are one of the most popular in the world already. If you wanted to argue money reasons, it could be to promote Dunlop since that brand is trying to compete with the Babolats, Wilsons, and Heads. They make excellent products so I'm not even mad at it.

    Sometimes I use this slice, otherwise I flip the racquet over and turn it into a groundstroke slice that spins all sideways on the bounce running away from the player because I like to come inside out on the ball. Felix hits the slices pretty high over the net,I don't hit the slice high and loopy. But there are times he does hits it like I do very low and flat over the netcord with those wow slices. I flip the racquet over to keep the ball a little longer on the racquet if I don't want to do just the normal slice but do a groundstroke slice.

      Aka they cut down on the ball for most slices and not as much out in front…if the incoming ball is coming with enough pace contacting the ball more out in front isn’t really going to help you. An experiment I like to use is balance all your weight in a neutral stance on your back foot…now look at your racquet angle, then proceed to shift weight so you are leaning forward on the front foot, notice the change in racquet angle.

    I love how he said that short angle from slice BH pulling opponent off court short in his own ad side is the worst possible position on the tennis court. I think when Rafa stands at back fence to return the opponent should drop shot serve him there often not just a time or two in the match. Because he's not the same player from net especially when he's slower now and has to run up from back fence to net.😮 If a good pro would work on that serve 1000s of times till the ball stayed unbelievably low with side spin it would be a killer shot. And against a huge guy like Isner it would be torturous.😢😮😂

      Every great slice has wrist !!!!!it’s called The radial to ulnar deviation !!! They start in that 90 degree angle in the preparation ( the Lshape ) when they go to contact it changes to about 125/135 degree depending on the height and distance to contact and then it keeps going to about a 145/160 degree after contact. PM has no idea what he’s talking about . Watch the beginning , all the slices are floating :):) because he’s going forward and tries to get under the ball ( old school ) hand goes in the direction :):) seriously:):) body goes in the direction on a cross overstep:):) seriously:):) watch every good slice in the video then you’ll see the hand DOESNT go in the direction but to the right , the body goes in the direction of the last step ( you make a line before the hit and after the hit and you’ll see that ( try to move your body in the cross line making an crossover step , means you have to make about a 270degree body turn :):) PM is great motivator and positive talk person which is sometimes enough to get a person back on track but I would NEVER send my kids to his school for technique!!!!

    • @knotwilg3596
      @knotwilg3596 2 года назад +15

      It's not just you. The advice on the slice is completely opposite professional technique. The U-shape Felix made before the lesson is more or less the professional technique. The straight drive through shape PM advises is the more traditional stroke. I would understand why you teach it to a beginner, as it is easier to execute, but Felix is aspiring to be an ATP level player.
      But it gets worse, like you have observed: if you cut first (in a vertical plane) and then drive through (in a horizontal plane) then the drive is not doing anything else than be an artificial change in direction, which will make the stroke unstable. The follow-through should always help achieving the actual stroke. If you cut first, then drive, the two ideas will conflict with each other.
      And finally, like you also have observed, despite the student not executing on the advice, PM will still say YES, or PARFAIT, or OLALA. It's a positive stimulus to tell the student he has actually learnt from the lesson. That's not a bad thing per se but it's rather fishy when 1) the technique being taught is old school 2) the confused student doesn't do what the teacher said.
