Build A Reliable Drop Shot. Stay On Offense.
PickleArc™ DROP Model
• Contact height: 18–36 inches depending on bounce and stance
• Apex location: midway between contact and net, or just before net
• Apex height: 46–60 inches depending on distance and pace
• Net crossing: through the top of the 12 inch window
• Descent: soft and controlled into the kitchen
With a drop, the ball should
• Peak early and begin descending quickly
• Land low in the kitchen, near opponents’ feet
• Force opponents to contact upward
• Buy time for you to advance forward
On offense, arc training helps you
• Reach the kitchen line safely
• Force upward replies, creating attackable pop-ups
On defense, arc training helps you
• Neutralize aggressive baseline exchanges
• Reduce opponent attack angles
