[Tennis]No follow-through! Japanese No.1 doubles player teaches the new theory of fore-volley

Hello everyone this is Michihisa Onoda Please continue to support Takao Kuron Actually today we have a different professional guest Well this professional has already retired but I have a lot of experience competing against them and I've never won once But I still want to bring out his wonderful qualities a bit today so I'd like to call on this person right away Please come This is Daisuke Onoda from Hiroki Kondo's office Nice to meet you You' re coming right away isn't that something only people here can understand I've had the chance to play doubles a few times at the Bangkok Futures I once won a Futures title with him Well since you've come to this channel I suppose I should explain the Kondo style of something I'd like to ask you a bit about that Today there are definitely a lot of those kinds of shots but still Borei I'd like to ask the viewers to tell me a bit about the most commonly used Boree the Kondo-style Boree please Please subscribe to the channel So the first important thing is the grip so let's see how the Kondo Pro grips the forehand Let me see it I'm holding it like this It's quite thick We probably have a slightly lighter grip like this but it's quite thick How does it look The face seems to be more likely to turn upward like this It feels like it might fly up but yes the fore is originally like this I am better at backhand and often have trouble with my forehand This is it when you find a grip that matches the forehand Well at first At first it was thinner Thin especially for the forehand low backhand The low ball isn't working out but the high ball is just a little bit of a smooth slice from above The lower it is the harder it is to go up even if you just hit it from above So with a grip that's thick enough to allow for a bit of forehand spin That grip is probably a bit thicker for a regular lesson so hitting the ball with this forehand grip is probably going to be a bit difficult There was a way of teaching that said "it' s like a mistake you shouldn't do it " but this one is pretty thick really thick and it feels like my wrist is going to twist I was hitting the ball with the intention of lifting the head just a bit right at the edge where it wouldn't go back especially with the low backspin Then I tried to aim up right after hitting it like that When I did that the bottom part worked well and since the top was already easy this is a bit of a different pattern isn't it Also this one There are many different ways to do it but I'm completely this kind of continental thin one and I was the type that opens the face like this from there This would have been going up anyway Maybe I don't need to do it myself I see Then using a one-handed grip forehand backhand or middle All with this grip Yes without changing hands I'll also hit the back Then with this one-grip I'll do this side Yes Indeed the back row is quite thick for me as well There is no here First I want to take back the bat If you're not going to swing is it okay if I just hit it a little Is it okay if I just show it to you If I set it right behind like this this is the way to just hit it This is a bit of a shift from the usual path Does that mean to pull Yes that's pulling I'm conscious of taking back Taking a backswing or not taking a backswing is the difference That's right When you finish it's over if you hit it Not following through So far we've been doing this show Takao Pro is the same but I've been saying that it's better to have a follow-through from Boree but I'm the type who doesn't do it Let's call it a day this time The no-go faction: So does it end with a big takeback and impact Yes That's another way to do it If you hit it towards this camera that's it Is it not that common to go this way from here Actually it's not that common to really stop here but in the footage it does look a bit like that but it's just a matter of setting up the next shot right here From my feeling taking back and ending here That's it here Then it would go with a strong impact It goes and doesn't stay Because I'll carry it from here It's my sense that it shifts in a different direction That's been like that since long ago No I noticed it around my late 20s I see After all I was number one in doubles in Japan Since then it has changed and become this method Yes that's right It's actually quite effective Doesn't it sometimes feel like you're lagging behind I'm doing it this way but it's not hitting the rate Of course there's a bit of lag sometimes The hit can go off if the opponent's ball is faster than expected or if I tense up a bit but when the ball is accurately hit where I intended it to be it's a good shot Things have been much more accurate lately Oh really Yes Wow once you do that you start wondering if you can only go right so you adjust here that's right is that also the case with the ball there Yes that's also the case In this case I'll make a slight cut to the side I'll make a slight cut from the outside in Oh the face is yes Oh really I see The face is slightly tucked in when using an outside-in grip The ball starts to spin towards the shot That's when you hook it That's right But if I were to follow through it would come like this This is how it ends up happening The follow-through ends up happening It's different This one definitely feels like it has a strong impact It's like when you accelerate and create impact I think it's a bit similar to a golf approach You're taught to drop it down from here not lift it up You're taught to drop it like that You play golf after all Oh so that's where it comes from From there from there from golf oh certainly it's about the weight of the racket that 's how it goes hmm I see my sense is a bit different I tend to have a lighter grip on the handlebar I push the handlebar forward like this Let's try a thicker one Try a bit of confusion flow Definitely a strong impact coming up Oh it can go fast Speed is speed it's really going to come out oh it's going to be quite fast But when you position it like this the face is facing me so it's a bit scary to hit it but if it connects here it's okay Oh but it has a strong impact But the wrist goes back like this right Yes Instead of using it like this it's in this position I'm not using it like this Just lift it a bit Raise it up like this That's exactly how you use it You have to use it upwards not sideways A little more just a bit more Hey that really made an impact Hey this one Pretty good What do you think Maybe we should change it That might be it Yes please stop a bit Last hit Oh isn't it stopped Yes just like that Oh how is it In the direction you want to hit I think it's a sharp volley but might get yelled at by Takao Pro I'll keep it a secret but this method is also good there's a new discovery there's an impact ban even if a fast ball comes if you adjust that's basically how it flies Yes if the opponent's ball were a bit faster the backswing would be a little smaller but you just make it small and snap it Who did you learn it from My own way This grip is a bit thicker I got the suggestion from the coach but this way of pulling and stopping is a bit my own style Certainly a slight time difference has developed going by the recoil it kind of makes sense I think a lot of viewers are also struggling with this some people are thinking about what grip would best and this might actually be a good recommendation Star Tennis Academy I think it would better to have a follow-up on the volley and also on the other hand a large backswing and a small follow-through I think it's a new theory but it seems worth trying I think that adding a bit of power and ensuring the stability of the course would make a difference You don't necessarily have to set a pace and even if you let it rest a little it should be okay Strong impac Viewers should also try changing their grip a little taking back more and stopping at impact this new theory is worth trying Thank you very
