Same. And I used to play ping pong, as well. I felt like I needed to wear a hockey mask. You play a lot closer to your partner, the rackets are longer and made solid and longer length, the balls are a lot harder than tennis balls, and they are at a much higher velocity when hit that close to one another.

The reason the crowd isn't as full as tennis because tennis players just watch it while pickleball players are too busy actually playing. Go look at your local park and count how many people are playing tennis vs pickleball. I'll wait 😂
@@LyIaKingI’ve actually only seen like a few people play pickle ball. I go to 3 different locations depending on the day because most of them are all taken up by tennis people.
You have obviously never played. I play with people who are fairly good after a decade and many thousands of games. None are even remotely close to playing at the level of the pros.
@@craigmarley5926 Ive played. I know people who played tennis and picked this game up and won a “pro” stop after playing for about a week. I stand by my statement
@@plannedtuna8293 Mike Spiro and his partner. Both never played this game. I’m sure one day it will become professional, but not to the point where they are true athletes. They would be on the level of bowlers.
I had to give up tennis when my knees gave out. Pickleball gave me the ability to use the skills I'd learned over the years, get good aerobic exercise, helped retain my balance and hand eye coodination, and have a good time socializing with people from all walks of life. In my experience, the average weekend tennis player wouldn't stand a chance with an experienced pickleballer, because there's more to the game than a smashing serve and volley, or a good backhand and forehand. I see a lot more people in their 70's and 80's out on the courts playing pickleball than on the tennis court. You can scoff at it, but it's here to stay. A lot of you will find yourself playing it someday, when through no fault of your own, you have to give up tennis.
I played tennis in hs and college “. Played pretty much everyday 4 hours a day for 6 years straight you think it would be an easy transition? Been wanting to give it a try.
@@TechnicalAssassin1 It's a totally different mindset. It requires more touch, and though it takes away the serve and volley game you still need fast hands to compete if you venture closer to the net. Rallies can go on for a long time, just dinking, until your opponent gives you an opportunity to go for it. As far as difficulty, the learning curve is much shorter, and tennis players pick it up much faster, but in the long run, things even out. Professional tennis players can zoom to the higher levels quickly, but even so, the top pickleballers usually come out on top when you get to the very last rounds of a tournament. I mostly play doubles, and can play for a long time because of the smaller area that needs to be covered. Of course, it's also a very social sport and you meet a lot of nice people. Mainly, it's fun and provides more exercise than you might think.
I was a decent Tennis player and athlete years ago, but I was badly injured when I was hit by a car on the foot with undiagnosed Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. After nearly 25 years. I worked extremely hard and got back into decent shape, only to get a terrible hip dislocation. I was already healing from radio nerve palsy and a home invasion injury to my wrist. Thankfully, I had added (chair) yoga not long before the bottom of my life dropped out. This yoga is at church. They also have pickleball. I was completely unfamiliar with this but was interested for the social and mind and body benefits. I still need a couple of surgeries. But I still went back for a yoga class this morning. I saw a pickle ball net for the first time, and here I am. It's for fifty five and over. I'm close so they have told me that I can play. 😂 They know that I have the right attitude about this and am in worse shape than most of the people who play. 😢😂😂 I think I will check it out once I have recovered from my surgeries. This will probably mean waiting until next school year to start. Having watched this, i'm not so sure if I am able to do this, but I WILL TRY. 😂😂😂 I realize that there will likely be people there like you. They have always been very athletic, and this is their version of slowing down. Never underestimate the seniors!!! May I ask your age?
Bruh. It takes skill. Golf doesnt require physical activity per se but it requires more skill than anything else i can think of. This looks fun. And looks like something us middleage people can do without breaking or tearing something lol.
agree...when a 6 foot man can cover 2/3 of the court width with one step either way it lends to a volley drill and not really an interesting one at that.
Doubles can get very repetitive, but still fun. Playing singles with someone who is good is pretty fun and can require a lot of running and is a decent workout. Why are people getting so bent out of shape about a game anyway?
It does feel like you're standing on a giant ping pong table. I have just started playing at the age of 70. It feels great, even with many physical ailments, to get out there and move again, while having a good time and getting some exercise. I am improving, and that's a wonderful thing. Thank you Pickleball... ❤
My buddy's neighborhood has a court right next to like 10 houses. Convenient that the older crowd that plays pickleball loves waking up at 5am to play😂
@James Moore - Agree! I have a friend who won't watch basketball because of all the shoe-squeaking, which I don't mind...but this pickleball noise would drive me insane!
Don’t kill yourself! At least not yet. There will probably and eventually be a reason for you to do so that is more compelling than the sound of a Pickleball being struck. Maybe not.
On top of that, many pickleball players bring their BoomBox to the courts, and play music from when they were teens. They typically do not have any concerns about anyone else having to listen to all that noise. They seem like nice people though, just noisy. And they yell loudly a lot too when they miss a shot, unlike tennis.
Yes. How about having these same exchanges at next with a ball that travels a whole lot faster and a longer racquet which isn't as maneuverable as a pickleball racquet? THAT takes real skill and reflexes.
Disc golf has skills dude. It will take you years to perfect. Pickleball is something you start in your 50s and become pro in a year. I have seen mother and daughter teaming up in pro pickleball at the highest level, have you ever heard anything more absurd in any other sport? People in their 50s playing pro.
I came here to find out what it is cause they're opening a club for this in my town soon. I used to play tennis. But now seeing the game your explanation is perfect!
I'm a senior, and this would be good exercise for me.. Whoever invented this game, simply put together a good all around work out to enjoy and have fun with it..❤ great way to make new friends too... hope this becomes more influential to our younger generation because they are always on the cell phones way too much .
I play tennis and ping pong (was literally taught by a Chinese guy named Ping) -- and have recently picked up pickle ball. It's much harder than the comments here suggest, and I come away more worn out than playing tennis. But maybe I'm doing it wrong.
Dai-yum…. That was good. I have heard it is taking off in senior communities because of it being less wear and tear. Clearly, this level must be far beyond what most seniors are playing at. Good video.
Table tennis is much more interesting and complicated because a table tennis bat can apply spin. And here, no spin for ya. It's like you take table tennis, make it bigger, and remove the key element of the game, which provided 80% of difficulty and complicated technique

It took them long enough to slam a point though...actually very fun to watch...the auditory cues much better than tennis, and no ridiculous grunting.
Dope 🔥🔥🔥🔥…this might be one of my new favorite games
It only took ten years to come up with a highlight. I love pickleball though!!!
This is like a giant table of ping pong!!
They don’t have to deal with different spins as well as the speed, competitive table tennis is low key harder than this
@@gab5012there is absolutely no comparison. Pingpong is so fast and you stand so close with a tiny bat. Pickleball is more fun because its less demanding so possibly something to think about in your 60s
@@user-vy5uy9fo8pyour wrong you should try table tennis yourself against someone who’s really good then you can make a comparison
@@user-vy5uy9fo8plol your wrong table tennis is way harder than in looks try it yourself and then make a reasonable comparison also players don’t always stay close to the table sometimes they have to back off 😂
That was exciting! & Fun to Watch 😮 Who knew? Idc if it was ping pong i like ping pong! Fun to watch got intence for a sec. Faster Slower Intence for a sec there till someone got fed up & nailed it. 😂 was fun to watch. So what! I liked it. Crowd was into it. More than you think. They will be back for more. They realized bit over enthused maybe ,tried to reel it in a bit 😂.
He actually called this a sport. 😂😂
By definition it is.
Oh god the “not a sport people” are out for pickle ball now!
You want to tell me the definition of a sport and try again?
It’s geriatric tennis.
Cone on, if they can call golf a sport, so is this, at least this involves some movement, timing and hand eye coordination.
Remember, these are considered sports
E-sports
Golf
Darts
Bowling
Ping Pong
Physically I think PB takes more effort than those, yet we accept them as sports 🤷🏾
Also there is a Mayan sport called Ulama, where you use your hip to hit a ball through a hoop. Sports can be anything bro
That one moment in wii sports
the crowd sounds like the people in wii sports when i throw the bowling ball behind myself
I didn’t even know pickle ball existed, I feel life has cheated me! 😂😢
Me neither, just saw it yesterday
You can play into your eighties...
@@carlrodrigues6919 if u keep up with urself, yes. They’re even players in there 90s
Greatest sport? I can tell by all the sold out seats.
i totally agree, not nearly the greatest, but it sure is fun to play.
🤣 🤣 🤣
Who cares?! It’s still fun!
blade ball irl be like 💀
It's like playing mini tennis with broken strings and a dead ball.
Love Tennis❗❤ action is there❗🎾
So FUN - to watch AND play!!!!
I need to hear someone remix this into some EDM.
Exactly!
What's next? We change the soccer goal to a circle basket and kick a basketball size ball and let's call that sport Orange Ball 😂
They forgot football is the goat🐐🐐
This was definitely better than that other short with 10M views.
I know the exact one you’re talking about I was so disappointed by the people hating on pickleball based one that super misleading title 😅 this one is way better but people still hating 😭
Tennis, ping pong and badminton all rolled up in to one game.
Mild tennis and pingpong may be, but where did you get badminton in this? There is no shuttle. Also I have much more respect for tennis and pingpong than I will ever have for pickleball
This looks like so much fun!
Why you even have this sport.. you either play tennis or table tennis
@@Yyyyyyy44 do you know him personally?
@@hsbdbsjsjebbdbsbsb370 probably not but it was still funny.
Maybe somebody wants something in-between tennis and table tennis.
And the crowd goes mild
They went from knockoff tennis/ping pong to knockoff badminton
When grown men play basketball on the kids court.
You must be kidding..... 😂. Greatest retirement pastime maybe, after bingo
Tenis for fattys
Nice I can standing there while waitting for the ball....and I can call myself an athlete
