Three Wall Drills for Faster Hands
Summary
Selkirk TV trains hand battles with a squishy wall ball that jumps fast. Drill 1: compact speed-up then immediately counter — tiny swing, loose aggressive wrist, already set for the reply (and triangle patterns: cross often comes back BH).
Drill 2: feed yourself FH speed-ups out of the air (cross or in front) and stay ready for the next ball. Drill 3: BH flicks up the line or across, always prepared for the counter. Compact beats big swings when hands get loud.
Key takeaways
- Compact speed-up → instant counter readiness
- Out-of-air FH speed-ups with recovery for the next ball
- BH flick line or cross — stay ready for the reply
- Loose wrist, tiny swing — not a home-run cut
Action items
- 2 minutes each wall drill with a soft ball before your next open play
- In games: after every speed-up, freeze ready — no spectator finish
