Throwing Thought: Fake with an Upward Trajectory
What the hell does that mean?
I mean, when you pivot from forehand to backhand (or vice versa), you should:
A) Throw a fake to initiate the pivot and
B) Make the fake on an upwards trajectory, using the fake’s momentum to kickstart your pivot over to the other side.
Think about it. Try it. The trick is to make your fakes still look convincing. The “upward trjectory” refers more to your body than your arm.
The next step (or perhaps concurrent step) is learning to throw with those same motions. Convincing fakes are ones that you can actually throw from.
