Slow motion analysis- would you like this?
I’m just playing around at home as I recover from a severe virus. I started reviewing some of my slow motion from the Marseillaise and I wondered what your thoughts are with regard to this and would it help your game or others game if they had a very in-depth analysis
Slow motion analysis- would you like this?
That’s sounds like it’s knocked you hard Kevin. Look after yourself. Regarding slow motion, it’s absolutely brilliant. Form is something I’m always trying to get clues on. As you once said good players can’t actually tell you what they do. But when you see them in action slowed right down, for a lob, or a long shot, or a spin point. You finally can see the technique. A chance to see the nuances. I seriously love these. Would love to see Henri Lacroix, or any of the big dogs in slo mo. Get well Fast mate. James
It’s you community so get involved and make a comment or vote
There are quite a few people in the community who are not so involved and I’d like to address that with a vote or the opportunity for you to add a comment about what would make this place the perfect group for you. This can be anything from drills, game tactics, zoom training, member style video reviews, tactical scenarios to discuss - whatever you think.

Hi Kevin. Left and right side spin for pointing. When lobbing and a low point. There seems to be multiple ways various club members achieve this, but no real explained technique. I’d love to hear your take on these. Or maybe a video Thanks
A better intro 😅
Hi all I joined this great group but I see the platform put my boring business intro as my intro here. A bit sad 😁. Just wanted to say Hi from New Zealand. We have a little strong club in Christchurch with some top national players to learn from and compete against. But it’s never proper training. Just wanted to say I’m a big fan, the videos are brilliant and in English! After competing in the senior trans Tasman in Melbourne this year , ( NZ VS AUSTRALIA) my appreciation for the head game has grown substantially. This is some of the training I have enjoyed the most from your YouTube channel Kevin. Kudos and thank you.
@Kevin ORourke Thanks Kevin. I know Micheal well, he manages most of our national and international tournaments.

I’m a “Business Owner Ass kicker” ie person who gets business owners to step up and and grow their business. That means consistently stealing clients.
