A Monster of Power and Spin!? Learning from Quang Duong's Play: The Pickleball Revolution💥🎾



Doesn't pickleball lately feel a bit like tennis?
Actually, that's not wrong.

Our star today is Quang Duong. He's an assassin—no, a revolutionary—who came over from tennis.
With a playstyle that's a demon for power and spin, he's made a massive impact on the pickleball world.

Today, I'll give you a rough overview of his playstyle!🧪🔥


Who is Quang Duong?🤔

In a word, he's the "ultimate maverick who brought tennis into pickleball."
He may have been dropped from the PPA and MLP recently, but his playstyle is still super hot🔥

Features:

  • Power!💪

  • Spin!🌀

  • Speed!🏃‍♂️💨

  • And, a bit unconventional😎


Quang's Spin & Power Lesson💣

Forehand:

He uses a semi-western to western grip to apply super-rotation spin!🌀
The ball slams into the opponent's feet. It's like a razor crawling along the ground✂️

Backhand:

His two-handed backhand is his main weapon.
Just like Djokovic in tennis, he brushes with his left hand to produce "crazy spin" in bulk!⚙️

Drop Shot:

He usually hits it with an upward topspin motion.
The slice is for emergencies. It's a one-hit wonder if it lands, but it also comes with its fair share of misses. He's a gambler type🎲

Transition Zone:

While most people reset here, he attacks!💣
His motto is "If you can hit it, hit it!" But since speed is life, try to imitate him with caution😅

Dink:

Believe it or not, he even uses spin on his dinks!
It's outrageous that he hits his backhand dinks with the same intensity as a full stroke.
What's more, he loves to speed things up from there and force a firefight🔥🔫


But, it's not all good news💡

Quang's playstyle is super aggressive.
Because of that, he actually isn't in the top 10 for doubles🙅‍♂️

Top players like Ben Johns are the type to play a delicate game using slices and dinks.
In other words, it doesn't mean you can win just by smashing everything.


Summary: You don't have to copy Quang's style entirely😂

His power and spin are spectacular. But if you try to adopt them as-is, you'll end up in a disaster (lol)💥

Recommended way to incorporate it:

  • Try increasing your spin amount a little

  • Try experimenting with your grip

  • Challenge yourself with a topspin drop!

That's right, the Quang style is just a "spice." Just like how adding all the super-hot chili peppers to a curry will ruin it, moderation is key🍛


Pickleball is deep. And there are so many different styles.
Find the "your own style" that suits you, and go out and play freely on the court~!🏓🌈
