I really appreciate how you label what you're doing as you teach the concept. It leaves no room for incorrect guesswork what you're getting at. Thanks!
Jordan, Thanks for you videos. I just started pickelball and find you the best teacher on TH-cam. Your easy explanations are appreciated and easy to follow.
Excellent as always Jordan (and Katrina!). I'm working to get our banger town to move to the control game and we practice dinking alot. Now I have to decide if I want to help them improve and nail me??!!
I started playing this game 3 weeks ago and I’ve been able to compete and win matches against Tournament playing players. I’m 38 years old and I’ve never had training. Jordan is my trainer here on TH-cam. I just ordered PTP gear
The strategies with handling dead dinks is from a singles game position. Where you target the return dink to ‘move them around could be different in a doubles match.
I like the instructions but not the distracting background music, I think it would be more beneficial to have a voice over explaining the technical aspect
New to pickle ball here. At the beginning of the video when dinking back and forth with his wife he steps into the kitchen before the ball has bounced in his own kitchen. I thought this wasn’t allowed? Can someone clarify?
thanks distance coach, another gr8 training vid! i like to return a dead dink with and even deader dink that that either barely clears the top of the net or even hit the tape and drop in. and lob deep to the baseline center line.
For god sake let Katrina win As I play more your videos become more important this popped up I saw it a few months ago I didn’t think much of it I was playing last night and I couldn’t finish the game in the valley zone I needed to use some of these dink techniques
@@primetimepickleball Sometimes it feels like you're picking on your poor wife. How about a video on defending smashes and let her smash it at you a bunch of times?
You asked three times in this video to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE, at the beginning, then you stopped in the middle of the instruction and at the end. That made me wanted to do the opposite. What a shame! Because the technique was actually good.
You’re allowed to enter the kitchen at anytime as long as you don’t hit the ball as a volley (on the fly) when you’re in their. You can enter the kitchen even if the ball hasn’t bounced yet as long as it does bounce before you hit it. Hope that clears things up.
The background music makes it virtually impossible to focus on what are you trying to show us. It’s also louder than your voice so I have to keep turning the volume down which makes me not want to watch and even if I do I’m distracted and don’t get much value out of it. Please drop the background music, it’s only for kids.
@colin cenge Do you just hop around videos trying to find things to nitpick without putting the same effort into observing the positives? Seems like you keep coming back to Jordan’s channel - I challenge you to leave a positive feedback.
@@Stupify8 Thank you! I'm so sick of clowns like Colin that feel the need to leave their BS commentary on videos like this. Just shut up and move along if you don't like the segments. Good grief...

Glad it was helpful! We'll keep labeling :)
Jordan, Thanks for you videos. I just started pickelball and find you the best teacher on TH-cam. Your easy explanations are appreciated and easy to follow.
Thanks John !
Thank you for all of the live examples of your dinking technique. Great video!
Thanks!
Excellent instruction as to why, when and how. Thank you
👍🏻👍🏻
I always watch Jordan's footwork. So important to hitting successful shots!!!
👍🏻
Good content as always. Wish some of these videos were in the 3-4min range though. I think the same info could be presented in that amount of time.
Try Pickleball Minute
Bro I use 1.25-1.5x speed. Try it
Love your videos..your backhand slice and topspin are you using continental grip ? Or do you change your grip ..thanks
Backhand slice is always continental, when I hit topspin I may change it to an eastern grip if I have time. Thanks for the comment !
Excellent as always Jordan (and Katrina!). I'm working to get our banger town to move to the control game and we practice dinking alot. Now I have to decide if I want to help them improve and nail me??!!
Lol 😊

Nice discussion with good options. Succinct and articulate!
😎
Great information. Added graphics are excellent. Very well produced.
Thanks Dennis !
Wow!! What an awesome tutorial! The slow mo really helped to see paddle angle too!! Fantastic! Thank you!!
Thanks! I’ll keep putting those slo mos in. 👍
Love the way you and Katrina teach!
Thanks 😊!
Hey PrimeTime, another great and helpful video.
Thanks Rocke !
Very helpful and totally makes sense. Thanks for the help.
👍🏻
Great job as Always Jordan. Helps tremendously.
Glad it helped!
Best video yet that I’ve seen from you guys!
Thanks Pierce !
Interesting. I called the attacks by the stroke I was using (forehand/backhand), not what stroke they'd have to use to defend it!
Hey Jordan, is your paddle the MX version? What is your preferred paddle weight? Thank you. I learn a lot from your videos.
Yes. I think it’s around a 7.5.
The strategies with handling dead dinks is from a singles game position. Where you target the return dink to ‘move them around could be different in a doubles match.
The demos in this video or done on one half of the court to simulate doubles positions, it's not a singles video.
Jordan you lay back your wrist when hitting a 3rd shot drop. Do you also lay back your wrist when dinking?
Definitely Randall. Although depending on what kind of dink I’m hitting, my set up will be a little different: ie. slice dinks vs topspin dinks.
Great instruction!
Glad it was helpful!
very helpful to better understand the art of dinking!
Thanks Sarvani !
👍👍 Need to practice the lob. Thanks
😎
Great info, love your content. Will be working on those.
Awesome Judy! Thanks for the comment!
Excellent video. Thanks
Glad you liked it!
It would have been nice to have a link to the previous dead dink video you referred to.
Sorry here it is!

Good stuff, thank you.
You’re welcome !
Good stuff
Thanks Micah!
What shoes are you wearing in this video Jordan?

Great video on net play
Thank you 👍
Loved it❤️
😊
Hi Jordan, How to read it is a dead dink or not?
If it has no spin and doesn't press you or move you and just kinda sits there...that's a dead dink.
I like the instructions but not the distracting background music, I think it would be more beneficial to have a voice over explaining the technical aspect
As usual always very good video from Jordan. Appreciate what you do.. Thanks
Thanks Michael !
In the beginning you kept stepping into the NVZ. Isn’t that wrong?
If you are not volleying the ball, then you can be in the NVZ any time.
New to pickle ball here. At the beginning of the video when dinking back and forth with his wife he steps into the kitchen before the ball has bounced in his own kitchen. I thought this wasn’t allowed? Can someone clarify?
You can be in the NVZ anytime you want, you just can’t be in the act of volleying while you are in there.
Time for Katrina to make a video!
It’s way overdue !! 😊
I wish you would design all your vids like this: Slow mo with banner description...So easy to apprehend!!!👍😊
Noted!
thanks distance coach, another gr8 training vid! i like to return a dead dink with and even deader dink that that either barely clears the top of the net or even hit the tape and drop in. and lob deep to the baseline center line.

Katrina is a good sport !!!
She is!
Nice
👍🏻
For god sake let Katrina win

Awesome!
Katrina is such a good sport.
She is!
Poor Katrina gets stuck with dead dink duty 😢
She’s a trooper!
What I am concerned about is that if i hit at my opponent's feet and my dink is a little too high he/she can reach forward and attack my dink.
Yes, this is why you have to practice the skill of hitting deeper dinks!
Poor Katrina.
She’s a great actress! Lol
Great video. My favorite attack is rolling it into their body. =)
Nice !
@@primetimepickleball Sometimes it feels like you're picking on your poor wife. How about a video on defending smashes and let her smash it at you a bunch of times?
I think We have one of those! Lol
The lady was standing back from the service line in the first section 😳
It’s ok to step off the line when you’re anticipating an attack. When you’re out of defense then reclaim your position at the line.
You asked three times in this video to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE, at the beginning, then you stopped in the middle of the instruction and at the end. That made me wanted to do the opposite. What a shame! Because the technique was actually good.
Thanks for the feedback.
Very confusing to watch as it looks like you intermittently enter the kitchen line.
You’re allowed to enter the kitchen at anytime as long as you don’t hit the ball as a volley (on the fly) when you’re in their. You can enter the kitchen even if the ball hasn’t bounced yet as long as it does bounce before you hit it. Hope that clears things up.
Jordan is not doing what it takes for a long and happy marriage.
😂

Yes, sorry that was not intended to be that loud. Thanks for the comment.

Needlessly long.
Get rid of the stupid music. Difficulty focusing.
Thanks for the feedback. No music in recent videos.
Please don't play that electronic "music ".
Lol. What do you prefer? Smooth jazz? 😊
yeah but you are stepping on the line as you dink that's foot fault...
You can step on the line if the ball bounced on your side. No shot in this video is a foot fault.
Excellent video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
