Coach’s Corner
The things I find myself saying on court every week — strategy, technique, gear, and the small fixes that move a game. Videos and tools, free, specific enough to use today.
Your paddle is not the problem.But the wrong one doesn’t help.
Nobody ever bought their way to a better third shot. Still — a paddle that fights your grip, your swing speed, or your elbow makes every lesson cost more than it should. So I built the tool I kept wishing I could hand people on court.
- Five questions about how you actually play.
- Every paddle in the catalog scored against your answers.
- Your top three, with the reason for each match.
Ninety seconds, free, and no lesson pitch at the end. Scored against my own hands-on testing, not a manufacturer’s spec sheet.

Videos are on the way.
I’m filming the first batch now — starting with the questions my clients ask most. If there’s a topic you’d want covered, tell the chatbot or mention it in your intake; the request list genuinely drives what gets filmed first.
