Hi, Jim Carella here, aka Jimbo Pickleball.

13
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:35,640
Last tip we talked about dinking and why we dink.

14
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,180
This tip is gonna be on where we dink.

15
00:00:38,180 --> 00:00:41,720
So when dinking straight ahead directly to your opponent,

16
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,360
it's only 14 feet.

17
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,160
Make sure your dinks are low and precise.

18
00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:48,880
Dinking in the middle creates more confusion.

19
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,200
That's about 20 feet.

20
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,880
And when you go on the diagonal,

21
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,320
you can create as much as 24 feet

22
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,080
between you and your opponent.

23
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,840
It gives you the most opportunity to hit it harder and higher.

24
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,000
It also opens up the court.

25
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,760
Remember, try to dink with a purpose.

26
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,480
Each dink is a good one, but it serves a purpose.

27
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,000
Hopefully this helps and happy pick a link.

28
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,200
Well, there you have it.

29
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,240
