Where are you guys located in VB? I'm in Norfolk looking for lessons/clinics.
Love the technical analysis. The tricky part is timing ultimately comes down to how the visual system is functioning. A lot of players don't have the ability to accurately judge when they should start their swing.
100% The non-dominant arm is just a small part of timing but ultimately it comes down to anticipatory skills among other factors. Thanks for the feedback and for watching!
Extremely useful. I was messing up exactly this. Was first leaving my left non dominant too early. It gave me more confidence as I had plenty of time to deal with. So timing was made easyer with incoming fast balls but awful against balls with low pace...I was generally inconsistent so wanted to improve consistency. Then tried to imitate the djoko backswing, ending up in coiling too much going too far back with non dominant arm still on the raquet throat. Result was a constant feeling of delay that messed up my timing even more than before.
Now I will adjust to a compromise between the two. It will take some work but I am confident to make it through.
With your visual examples and focused explanations you made things very clear. Thanks!
Happy to help Piero, thanks for the feedback and for watching!
Great video 👍.. really appreciate it
Glad it was helpful!
Thank y'all for this tutorial.
Any time!
I definitely do not think that the problem with late contact is using the left arm too much.
Most if not all recreational players use the left arm too little, and they do not turn enough, if any, and still are late at contact. The two main culprits are :
1) late preparation: most low level players are always late to position themselves BEFORE hitting, and are late at taking the racket back
2) tennis is unfortunately a very counter-intuitive sport: if you take a random person and tell him to throw a stone keeping the arm at or below wait level he will most likely do a sideway turning motion and release the ball when the arm is on the same line with the body or only slightly forward. Same thing, if not worse, will happen when he has to catch a ball.
I once saw a trainer do a very insightful exercise: just keeping the ball still he asked his student to position himself to hit the ball and the student positioned himself completely in a wrong position, sideways to the ball..showing that is not only a problem of timing but that most beginners have the wrong mental image of where the ball must be when they make contact.
All well said and great points. As you can imagine there can be a lot of different reasons why a player is late at contact This is just one vantage pointfrom our experiences as coaches as why some players have poor contact but yes there can be a variety of culprits. Thanks for watching and the feedback,.
thank you very much very beautiful video very professional very very nice I love it I show my kids and I think it will work much better than before one more time thank you very much you are great!!!
You are welcome 😊 Thanks for the kind words!
This is really great advice!!
These are great tips! I’m trying to work on timing as I tend to shank the ball 😔
Thank ya sir, hope they help!
No one has explained the role of the left arm and when to let go so proficiently. I have had issues both with letting go too early and too late. I am anxious to try this tip.
Let us know how it goes! 💪
Thank u so much for tips fore hand
Our pleasure!
By watching on your wrist bandage i think that next video should be about how to prevent wrist injury by trying to improve the timing on my forehand. Joking. One advice from me to improve your forehand. 5:25 You rotating shoulders and holding your right arm still. In that moment arm should be about 30 degrees more back already. Yes, it's on side but still afront of you. But should be sideways and behind. So don't do that, don't keep your arm afront of you if your already started shoulder rotation. Move back right arm in time with starting shoulder rotation. By doing so shot will be more fluid and easier. And most problems about timing is not technical. It's just in mind. People just don't want to hit afront of them. They feel safer and comfier by hitting late. Late for us, good for them. So, practice to fix that problem should be about feel not about technic.
it’s good for me to improve my tennis, thanks
Happy to help!
Thank a lot 👍
Happy to help!
Crazy western grip guy! 🤠
Hi Nate, Thanks for your video. Do you have video(s) to improve my hand-eye coordination?
I'll try this tonight
Let us know how it goes!
Need this lesson for my 2HBH. Having a lot of timing issues on that wing.
Sorry to hear of the troubles. In case you missed it check out the vid linked below on the backhand, it may help with your timing issues! ruclips.net/video/ULFrhGmhRVI/видео.html
This helps
Great video..
Thanks for the visit
Good tip! Thank you! BTW, Scott Disick looks like you, Coach.
lol, fair enough. I have quite a few years on Mr. Disick though I believe.
Thanks for the tip! How are you finding the new Blade? 😁
Big fan of the V8! Definitely worth a test drive if you haven’t checked it out already!
Yeah!
Good video. Can I ask what are u using to tape your wrist?
Kachanov's forehand may be the exception that confirms the rule of the use of the non dominant hand.
Absolutly great advice. First one to point this so concrete out on the net . Bedst from Denmark
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it Olaf!
The one without coil looks like Söderling's forehand
Maybe I should start hitting without any coil! lol 😉
haha. I had a look at Söderling and he does coil. Think it is just something with two straight arms loading the swing that reminds me of his forehand.
5:08
you really had to do your best to show the bad parts :):) but until the bounce or to early has nothing to do with rythm !!! with the good balls your racket moved with the speed of the ball is what i could see
Demoing incorrect methods can be funky for sure. Although on tough days on the court they are plentiful 😉
Taking the left hand way back like Alcaraz does not mean your late on the ball. Holding it there for too long does. So it still needs to go back futher. Keeping the head still as well. So don't copy this video. I have done my research as a tennis coach. Keep your left hand on the racket as far as possible in the unit turn. Your left hand will be on de baseline when you start coiling.
Rule #1. If you're Alcaraz you should do Alcaraz things. 😉 Agree with you that holding the NDA too long on the racquet is often the culprit for being late but very few recreational players can get away with an extreme coil and remove the NDA in time for optimal contact. Although advanced players can do it, it is not recommended for recreational players.
I wish you would actually cradle the racquet with your left hand instead of just using the space between your thumb and forefinger. Supporting the racquet with your left hand will make your dominant hand looser and more relaxed. IMHO
Yummy
No, it's not good. You someway use the bounce of the ball like a reference point of time for synchronisation (this is erroneously made even by Pros). But this is bad because you wait for the bounce, thus wasting some of the valuable time existing between a shot and the following one.
