Popping up dinks

What we’re solving

An open paddle face and a wristy, lifting dink

What usually causes it

A stable, slightly open face with the lift coming from your legs keeps dinks low and unattackable.

Drills you’ll likely work on

  • Net-skimmer dink gate
  • Paddle-face wall drill
  • Soft-hands dink rally
