7:13 Jordan’s face wondering where this was going. 😂

I like how you said to give the wrist a rest. Super important point.

[greggeatros]

Great advice yet again!
Location over power and SLY when deciding when to speed up with rolls whereas prioritize pace on flicks.
You guys rock!
*FYI it really shows how much Caden has been “working out” his forearm:)

[tinamarles]

great video (as always!!!) - Question: do you have any recommendations for exercises to strengthen the wrist and forearm??? Preferably ones that do not require a gym !! That would be super helpful!!!!

[pnivatpumin]

Great video! Love the granular breakdown of a single technique.

[dougniwa]

Thank you! Great video. I see that I have been doing more of a roll flick, coming over the ball as I flick my wrist. I will keep my roll flick for occasions when I want to push the ball down with topspin, but will incorporate a straight flick as well for hitting spots like shoulders and chest.

[gunnr-pkle]

Please provide more of these concise video topics…thank you!

[Liquidice]

These tutorial style videos are goated

[btreese]

How do you decide to flick vs roll on your backhand volley? Height of the ball...time to prepare?

btw....watching you right now. Up 8--7 in game 2 vs the Johns....keep it up.

Good luck in Game 3!!!

[lazyhusband]

Hey! I just saw this dude on Tuesday Night Pickleball!

[joshuapickett]

Great video as always man. Just curious why you like the Luxx over other Selkirk paddles? I’ve really been trying to decide between the Luxx invikta and vanguard control. I know you’ve played both and am curious what swayed you towards one over the other? (Also excited for the amped pro even though I know that’s gonna be more if an all court paddle as opposed to these control paddles)

[danielbonca]

Hey Jordan quick question for you so is a push dink basically a flat dink ? Or is a push dink a dink with spin ? Just wondering I’m tying to understand it a bit more.

[kravitz]

LMAO… Don’t know how you’re still single Caden 😂🙈

[Orbitald]

3:58 what about a lob to the far corner? Great video!!! TY!

[airwalkmike]

someone said the paddle head needs to be pointed down, why is that? are they right or wrong?

[yngel]

Just saw Caden hit a dirty behind the back reset / counter in the round of 64 ATL PPA, they won the point too. You should ask him about it! lol

[jtgreenwood]

Is Cadens left foot always on the kitchen line when he volleys? hahaha. J/K (dont care just messing with you guys) love the videos - great work isolating solid winning skills to work on! Also loved you guys pointing out Zanes backhand flick to the backhand, and the fact that he did it with a downward trajectory was pretty sick.

[kabnis]

Is the paddle supposed to brush over the top of the ball?

[luke]

This seems to be more of a backhand slap. I thought the flick was more of a down to up flick like you were throwing a frisbee in the air?

[myonlylov]

I saw your partner in crime using a Joola in the atlanta open and winning the round of 64.
