Are you team wide stance or narrow stance? #pickleball #pickleballtips #pickleballaddict

  • 0:00 - 0:05
    So, I've heard is a wide stance better, is a narrow stance better. Which one?
  • 0:05 - 0:06
    Which one should I do?
  • 0:06 - 0:08
    If you have a narrow stance,
  • 0:09 - 0:14
    it's very hard to be athletic at all in a narrow position.
  • 0:14 - 0:15
    I can't really,
  • 0:15 - 0:16
    again I call this Tin Man,
  • 0:17 - 0:19
    but you can't move. All I can move are really my shoulders.
  • 0:19 - 0:22
    Everything else is kind of stuck. So, the ball comes at me or if I am
  • 0:22 - 0:23
    having to move,
  • 0:23 - 0:26
    I'm gonna have to like get wide and then try
  • 0:26 - 0:28
    to step and that just takes time away from you.
  • 0:28 - 0:30
    Whereas if I'm already wide and down,
  • 0:30 - 0:33
    I can shift, I can move, I can bend,
  • 0:33 - 0:37
    I can get out of the way of a ball. I can shuffle. I'm already in position.
  • 0:37 - 0:40
    It just makes me a split step faster
  • 0:40 - 0:45
    or hair faster. And anything faster is an advantage on your end.
