WATCH: Now You Can Have Overhead PERFECTION in Tennis

Hey!

I hope your new year is off to a fantastic start.

Crazy story… when I shot this video I’m sharing with you, there was this dude hanging out and he was asked if I wanted to hit with him.

So far, so normal… then when we got onto the court, he put a racket in each hand!

So here’s this two racquet wielding super tennis player… but then it got weird.

He started making this “swishing” noise as he went to hit one of his forehands.

It went like this “shhhhhhhhWISH” with the WISH coming on right as he went to make contact.

I thought I was playing the street sweeper!!

Really good player, super nice guy… just had some peculiar habits, I suppose.

We all do. So, in my video, I’ll show you how to simply and predictably perfect your overhead:

  • Be in a continental grip
  • Get your side to the ball
  • Make contact in front of your body
  • Finish off the point after your great volley

and hopefully I’ll make you smile at the same time 🙂
