Hit Bigger Drives! Four PRO Tips to Level Up Your Drive in Pickleball

Описание: A good drive is critical in today’s fast paced pickleball. So we asked our pro coaches and players to give us their single best drive tip each. You might be surprised by the answers! Pro pickleball player and coach Susannah Barr highlights one of the biggest mistakes in the game: trying to hit a third shot drive on the wrong ball. She also talks us through her entire drive technique. Pro pickleball coach Maria Lopez shows how to use speed instead of power. Pro coach Dominic Catalano keeps it short and sweet with his best drive tip: limit backswing and drive through the ball. Lastly we have a bonus tip from a pro player with a big drive, Nicholas Wade, who emphasizes footwork and early preparation. As always, if you have any questions, comment below and we’ll answer as quickly as possible.
