1. It's not obvious for the people you try to teach this to
2. Yes it is, or it definitely looks like it in the video, may need to see it from another angle

Anyway a small tip which is pretty obvious tbh, is to make these videos on the tennis court, set the camera up on a bench and let your mate give you some balls so that you actually show it in real time. Also make it possible to see the whole body while doing your hit. Just my two cents.

Also a little off-topic, it'd be interesting to see people here on jsp play for real, I know we're not that many on this sub-forum but there's a couple of us at least and could be interesting to see. I'll try to find a day where I can record and then I'll upload it here and hope that others may do the same :)


yeah i plan on doing some oncourt things but it can be useful just to hear it broken down on each part so i decided to do that @ home @ 4am. I wasnt planning on doing an overhead vid but i just randomly decided to do it


and theres a cpl diff ways you can grip overhead smashes fyi

wasn't just referring to your overhead vid, there were times during your forehand vid where I couldn't even see the racquet while you were hitting, but yeah

it's just that I've never seen a pro use that grip for an overhead smash ever, you pretty much use the same grip in an overhead smash like you do when serving, and that's definitely not a serve grip it's all I'm sayin

My grip is far different from yours, it looks painful to me but it's not wrong. Nice videos :)

Now I only watched the latest vid of them all but you realize that the ball is waaaaaaay too low there to show a real smash right? Haven't watched the others yet

You're also using the wrong technique (grip)


.. Duh

Technically there's no such thing as a wrong grip, so yeah, I didn't mean it literally.

Also, he's making these videos for beginners, and he didn't mention anything about it being too low. It's not at all 'duh' for someone who never played tennis before.

True I guess, if you're using the videos as a starting point for playing tennis it could be confusing.
