Well done Coach, and Anna Leigh too. I also like watching Anna Leigh poach and put away her shot with the 2 handed backhand. Also when she does it above her left shoulder. Totally turns defense into offense. One of my main problems I realize I have is letting balls get past me. I find I'm too passive, not sure if it's slow reflexes, afraid of feeling like I'm hogging play or what?
Are you kidding me? It doesn’t tell you the HOW, just that she DOES. Great video!😊
This shot is absolutely sick!
Cool shot. The backhanded offensive roll shot is a weapon for sure
I was so amazed to watch Simone and Lucy change their normal stack to put Simone across from Anna Leigh one game because Lucy was having trouble in the dink battle. Simone could lean in and get the wider shots out of the air enabling her to deal with the shot better
@@Canucklug and I saw in a post match interview where Simone said she struggled for a whole game against the Waters trying to return that shot. Also saw Anna Leigh pass Dekel Bar a few times at the net with that shot and he is 6'3. Also saw Ben Johns use it once in the latest highlight reel(though his single backhand cross-court is killer and made the highlight reel more often)
1:32 What is the first thing you are thinking when you hit this shot?
2:13 Rolling to the kitchen line, side line tee.
2:22 Who are you setting up?
2:34 Are you trying to be defensive with the two-handed backhand topspin dink roll?
3:02 Why do you prefer that shot on defense?
3:21 Technique - Where is your paddle when you are ready to hit the ball?
3:59 What is the most dominant hand in the shot?
Definitely one of the best shots in the game.
Awesome players. Two of my favorites to watch.
Thanks for the tip ! Well appreciated
Glad glad Anna Leigh is doing Videos...So Proud of her!!! And Mom...I talked to you a long time ago about being instructors at our Suncoast Camps ....so let's do that soon!!! Good job Dom!!!
Great shot
Thanks
Great tips!
I remember when I wore shorts over my sweats, think it was in the mid 80s......
Dinking is increasingly important. As the competition increases.
Enjoyed the video, except your faces are completely dark. I'd love to see your expressions. Would you consider filming later in the day or on a cloudy day, or removing your visors?
Did I miss it?
So bad when people advertise things to lead other people …but in the end they show nothing!!
Why not show more video while talking? Didn’t learn much watching you standing there. Visual of what you’re talking about would have been nice. 15 seconds of video doesn’t really do much
Less talking more hitting
It's not an uncommon shot on peoples forehand side but takes an extremely talented person to do it backhand!
Very little time is spent talking technique 😢
