@pickleballpundits: This forehand dink variation hides your intent until the very last second, making it hard for opponents to anticipate where it’s going. From the same setup, Ben can go aggressively cross-court, more neutral through the middle, or even disguise it as a speedup. It all starts with a similar preparation, having a horizontal paddle face pointed toward his opponent. He often steps with his right foot as the ball bounces on his side of the court, then brushes around the side of the ball for the crosscourt angle. He’s usually on his partner’s side when hitting this, and it’s one of the toughest dinks to learn but also one of the most fun to watch. #pickleball #pickleballtips
