The Back Foot is the Key to Improving Your RB Game!
For years, McClayson has practiced at developing a
consistent and powerful drive serve. The number one issue that he
personally faced was timing. Everything crucial was analyzed to
developing a consistent powerful low drive: the ball drop, the toss arm
tuck, staying low and level, the proper complete follow through, eyes on
the ball and hitting the ball on its downward trajectory.
While all of these variables play a key part in the
overall development of a powerful consistent low drive, McClayson
discovered that the golden key that opens the Consistent Powerful Low
Drive Lock. This was the proper planting and rotation of the back foot for
EVERY racquetball stroke! Eureka!
McClayson has found the panacea that will tie together all
of the other factors. While practicing a blistering, accurate low drive serve
using the Back Foot technique, McClayson ripped an astounding 80% low photon two bounces drives
into the corner at will.
Drive service
sequence
1. Drop
2. Tuck toss arm
3. Step, plant, rotates back foot to start the stroke with the lower
body first
4.
Rip and complete follow through
5. Quick and speedy Relocation
The
back foot facilitates correct timing of all of the other power sources -
starting with the back foot, which initiates the lower body, the lower
body facilitates the upper body’s rotation, and culminating with the
powerful wrist snap at racquet/ball contact point!
POW!
McClayson was
just decking some monstrous low drives with lethal accuracy into the
deep court abysses to flummox many future opponents! McClayson
visualizes the Back Foot as the SpringBoard/Diving Board that launches
the powerful large lower body into action! And the result is a
spectacular low efficient drive serve with little efforts! POW again!
Conclusively, every efficient powerful racquetball
stroke starts with the proper planting and rotation of the key back
foot. The proper back foot plant propels the lower body into a powerful
burst of forward momentum towards the ball and the results are fast, low,
accurate drive serves, deceptive high deep lobs, and deep ceiling balls!
The amount
of force on the back foot determines if you want to hit a soft or hard
shot! That’s it! The adherence of racquetball fundamentals with the key
of starting every stroke with the back foot rotation promotes correct
stroke mechanics. This translate into more consistency, accuracy and power to
every one of your racquetball shots!!
