Move the Dink Around

Quick Tips Pickle4 Team 05-15-2024

When dinking, it is critical to move the dink around, mix it up, and remain unpredictable. This means mixing up spins, speeds, angles, depths, and placement of your dinks. The more unpredictable you can be, the more you will catch your opponents off guard and create confusion. Whether the player themselves is confused about how to hit the pickleball, confused whether to hit the pickleball out of the air or off the bounce, or doubles partners are confused as to who should hit the pickleball, moving the dink around leaves your opponents feeling uncertain and unable to predict what’s coming next.
