These point-by-point breakdown videos, with normal speed then slow-motion analysis, are the BEST for my learning and progression. Thank you! Keep it up!!!
These are my favorite videos you do- INCREDIBLY insightful! So hype to see you on your pro journey 🤙 Love the newsletter too- can’t wait to see the Johns/Waters breakdown!!
I came up with phrase to remember when to reset to the middle "When you are in a pickle, hit to the middle". So often we do too much when we are on defense or the ball is low for an attack. Thanks Tanner! The main benefit I get from this video is learning better how to anticipate a shot through pattern recognition.
I love the line about going from a disadvantage to winning the point. You you shouldn't skip over going back to an even game before trying to win the point. 14:25
@@tanner.pickleballi think your point is good and accurate at the net that with same level players you will lose 90% of reversal attempts but when coming to the kitchen on a serve i see a lot of people being to passive going to neutral getting to net on a weak ball too much when they could speed up and win the point there at a high percentage
I appreciate your enthusiasm and your humility. (It can be humbling to post your own matches and offer the critique of even your own play like this. Admirable. Too bad more of the "Studio Experts" are not willing to do this.) My instructor had a heck of a time getting me to "dink soft middle when you're in trouble." You had to go and reinforce his tip, didn't you?! Seriously, I do believe this tip alone has been super valuable. - Dink
Another great vid. Love these game/match analysis vids. The video production quality is also excellent. Thanks for sharing your journey and knowledge with the community.
Dude, your pickleball content is amazing. I watch everyone of your videos. And even your video production quality has been improving since I started watch. Absolutely amazing job! I just started a tiny pickleball channel and it’s hard to not have things look amateur, your next level man!!
@tanner, great video analysis and insights. Thank you. For the return of serve during unstacking, I actually feel cross court (or middle) return might be better for the following reasons: 1. When you go down the line on your return, your partner can be more easily targeted down the line. 2. The person driving (when you return down the line) can hit his cross court drive angled off the court (that makes it harder for you as you now have bigger space to cover now since your partner has to worry about the line and his body) 3. It's hard for the driver to go behind your partner if your return is cross court. So your partner can help you more in the middle. Agreed that when the return is cross court you'd have less time on opponents 3rd but that's offset by the fact that your return will also take longer to get to the driving guy since it's cross court.
I'd enjoy a video highlighting the arc of the ball for dinks and drops. In particular where should the ball hit its peak and how high should that be. I've enjoyed all your videos that I've seen. Thanks.
I am loving your analysis and just found your videos. This is the third I am watching but after 4 min. I’m not sure I can go on with the background music, just some constructive feedback for the future. Look forward to more analysis videos and cool you are playing with kyle his Shannan’s is excellent also.
Super helpful, Tanner! I love your game analysis videos! Unrelated - but your match against Yates and Blaine was a fun one to watch. I recorded a couple of good points- if you’d like, I can send them to you.
4:52 “fire-fighting going, reach out, ready to go”! I watched your video yesterday and paid attention of your saying. I reached out and hit a push back on an attack this morning. Now I realized it was the technique you just taught. Thank you very much. Your video needs to view multiple times.
Split step when ball crosses net: any advice when you are bailing back? I hate when I don’t get set but trying to create more space at last second when bailing
I'm merely a 3.75 in practice, on a good day. Even though this material is pretty far away from what I need to use in my typical game play, I think it is important to keep advanced concepts percolating in my mind as I progress up the ladder. Knowing this sooner rather than later, I believe I will develop far fewer bad habits to fix later.
As a 4.5, I feel like with some guys in 4.0 & 4.5 there's like an ego thing where they like to be the more aggressive player when on the right side. It seems like in the advanced levels everyone knows to let the forehand side take control.
I have a quick question, so at 5 minutes you talking about your partner in a firefight and you want to have your paddle extended middle is this also true for your backhand since in the video you're both forehand middle. Thanks great videos as always..
Fantastically helpful insights, thanks for that. Just one thing: the background music was somewhat distracting, i.e., kept me from fully listening to what you were saying. Just, um, saying, lol. Anyway, keep up the good picklin'!
On point 6 you say it's the left side players job to protect the right side players left foot so right side player doesn't have to hit a backhand dink, but doesn't that go against "respect the x", where left side player is responsible for body and line and right side player covers the middle? Or is that more for speed ups and dinking is different?
4:00 yes your paddle is down but your standing straight up like your strolling thru the park. How about bending your knees to a athletic position. If he hit that over head he could of easily hit you in the face. You put your paddle down when your at the mid or back court.
PRO LEVEL analysis. Tanner, it’s clear how much effort you’re putting into these videos-your attention to detail and the quality of your breakdowns are exceptional. Everything is so crisp and solid, making it incredibly easy to follow. I learned a ton from this! Do you happen to have a link to the full game as well?" This looks like a really fun challenging game

Great one, exactly right with that riddle!
My mantra is, “Meet high pressure with high percentage.”
Super helpful! I will be putting this tip to work tomorrow at advanced mixed league!!!!!
When you’re in a pickle, hit the middle!

Agree! That tip alone was worth the time and attention.
Seeing you play in the PPA AND WIN made my day. Very happy for you

Great stuff - also pointing out 4.0 players' weakness. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed!
Omg! Kyle ends the pt with my favorite angled volley drop shot. 😅😂😂😊.
It’s the best!!
Great breakdown! Are you watching and recording this in OBS? Or using some other software? I'd love to do stuff like this for fitness breakdowns.
I use obs!!
Split step when ball crosses net: any advice when you are bailing back? I hate when I don’t get set but trying to create more space at last second when bailing
Good question!!! In this scenario I stop at the last possible second to buy time - you’re doing it right!
As usual, awesome videos and lessons! Start a camp so I can join!
Thanks!! Maybe something in the future haha!

Totally agree, you have to get a comfortable partner to go about this lol!
Nice content bro
Appreciate it
I watched it from start to finish without skipping a single second
Yesssss!

Yes this is true for the backhand as well. Absolutely!
I like a lot your lessons. Thank you. CAN You give us information how to chose paddle for an advanced player. Thank you.

Sure I can create a video on that topic!!
Fantastically helpful insights, thanks for that. Just one thing: the background music was somewhat distracting, i.e., kept me from fully listening to what you were saying. Just, um, saying, lol. Anyway, keep up the good picklin'!
Noted! Thanks!
Tan is the man
:)
can you go over the game with you going up against johns/waters
Yes I will make a video just like this one!!
Was literally just going to comment this. But honestly ben wasn't even trying at all. He was just practicing his 2hand back hand
😂😂I was going to ask you who won because it looks like your team wins a lot of points. Nice analysis . ❤it.
We lost in the third game! We had it.. and blew it haha!
more videos on advanced patterns!
Got them coming :)
What would you say you need to work on? It would be helpful to know what someone who's a 6.0 at heart is working on.
Sign up for his newsletter! He talks about what he is currently working on!
Thanks Matt!!
For this match specifically, nothing specific, just getting more reps in high pressure situations!! Couldn’t put it together when it mattered.
Natural 6.0 DUPR in my books
Hahaha
Hey, did you play Anna lee and ben on mix?😮 up and coming analysis😮😮😮😮
Yes I did, and yep next video haha
@@tanner.pickleball GREAT
Is that an adidas paddle? Looking good! Great video.

Yes that is for speed ups. For dinking, the left side player should be more dominant!
What paddles is kyle using ?
Selkirk 002
Tanner i own crbn any ord when the new release will be out? Where do you give lessons
How was playing against Ben Johns?
Fun! Cool experience, I am going to make a video here
A less than optimal view of the court, but top tier analysis, as always.
My apologies! I didn’t know the match was even filmed, I was thankful somebody got it!
I have moved pretty quickly to 4.0 level in less than a year but i feel stuck NOW!!!! Please help!!!
On it!!
Me too!
3:26 You call it a free over head but that sure looked like an out ball to me.
oooh
Maybe a video on when to leave balls? That is a skill I still have not mastered.
Why are the players paddles at waist height when they’re at the NVZ line
To stop hitting balls going out!
