Leave a juicy gap open, then cover it when they attack.

💥BAIT BALL may be a term you’ve heard. You are baiting them into attacking to what looks like open space. Only for you to cover it when they attack.

💥This is a risk. This can absolutely make you look dumb if you don’t have your TIMING down. The timing is that you commit to the coverage as soon as they show signs of speed up.

🚨They might not go to the gap. ESPECIALLY if you already did this to them once. Be aware that not everyone falls for the bait. There’s some smart fish out there that know what’s going on with that gap!

Add this to your repertoire. It’s a good pattern to have in the bag and it touches on a few different skills.

💥Movement off the line
💥Resets in transition
💥Counter through transition

The situation at hand is— you have found yourself in a dink rally favoring you- you need to make sure pressure stays on your opponent, WITHOUT USING SPEED UPS, and you’re hitting dinks that matter.

💥Dink patterns earn pop ups like crazy. Exposing the crack takes a keen eye. You have to recognize the spot that seems like it would be hit by either opponent… aka the crack. Oh yeah also, you have to be able to hit to the spot to.

💥A pattern not mentioned in the strive to make your opponents look like they are dancing is pushing balls at your opponents feet. Making them step back is an effective way to earn easier balls too.

Add some positioning pressure to easy returns… Just leave the hard ones and only go for the easy ones.

⚔️ The Offensive Unit: The player not hitting the drop** is responsible for high balls, or anything weak that the opponent hits. Based on drop location and gaps in the court, the next shot/ the attack can vary.

🛡️The Defensive unit: The player hitting the drop** is responsible for low balls that are tough and feel more defensive. Typically the defensive unit hits if the drop is BAD.

🚨Not for all skill levels- I’d recommend the signal or cue for knowing you are the right level is if you’d put money on yourself making a drop on demand. Until you can do that, sending your partner up to get killed while you miss 3rds isn’t strategy 😂

The best movers dont just move to move, they move to place themselves in the perfect position to strike the ball they see.

💥Prepping the hands before arriving at the ball is crucial to hitting a quality shot. Movement is usually what causes the preparation to be poor or even non existent

💥The shuffle movement is the key footwork in this. Get some reps with no ball just shuffling quickly across the kitchen line side to side.

You can be aggressive and not attack!! When you decide to strike, hopefully there’s a reason for it.

💥The stars have aligned if you can hit your best shot to a spot that is vulnerable on your opponent.

💥Just because an attack works on one person it doesn’t mean it will work on another. If your best attack and spot is at your opponents strength, you’re playing with fire!!

This is exposing a personal weakness, but hitting to out targets can sometimes play to your advantage.

💥Patterns play a huge role in deciding what’s on the “spectrum of possibility”. What some players don’t realize as they are hitting to spots is that their opponent might have a terrible tendency of hitting out balls.

💥I’m not saying you can hit the ball to the wall and your opponent will hit it… But if you are aiming for targets just outside of the court, sometimes the opponent gets fooled.

If your opponent looks like they’re playing dance dance revolution 3, you’re using Tension correctly.

💥 If you can’t keep your dinks in the kitchen, this video is not for you. This gives some purpose to High-level dinkers that are consistently making balls in the kitchen but looking to do more damage.

💥 Movement while hitting is one of the main reasons pop ups show up. If you can keep your opponents moving/ dancing, it’s likely you’re going to receive the pop ups.

💥Not discussed is TEMPO, knowing when to step off the line and hit a heavy ball, but slower tempo… then short bouncing the ball, fast tempo but the possibility of hitting anything aggressive off the bounce disappears. Managing this helps you with making your opponents dance for you. I’ll put something out about it soon 🫡

Which game suits your style better? Patient or aggressive?

⏰Patient game: Really consistent dinks, solid counters, physical for long points, great ball placement, covers speed ups well.

🚨Aggressive game: Heavy dinks, long limbs(arms), great flicks, good speed ups, high quality ball placement, dangerous combos.

2 totally different play styles living inside the same dink battle. Which one are you? Great players have both and choose which game is best to play based on their opponents or which game feels stronger for them that day.
