New Drill Alert: 5-Shot Singles Combo with Gabe Tardio
New Drill Alert: 5-Shot Singles Combo with Gabe Tardio
Ready to sharpen your singles game? Professional pickleball player Gabe Tardio — currently ranked #1 in doubles — has designed a new combo drill exclusively for Titan Drills Pro, and it's one of the most complete singles patterns you can add to your training rotation.
This drill chains together five shots into a single, continuous sequence that mirrors what actually happens in a competitive singles rally:
- Forehand Drive
- Backhand Drive
- Cross-Court Forehand Roll
- Cross-Court Backhand Roll
- Transition to the Kitchen Line + Put-Away Winner
Instead of drilling shots in isolation, this combo trains you to move fluidly from deep baseline drives into topspin rolls, then close out the point at the net — building the footwork, timing, and shot selection you need when a real point is on the line.
