      If the momentum from his volley is what caused him to step into the kitchen, then it is indeed a fault. But if he had already reset his stance, then it’s not a fault.

  2. Barrett, just wanted to say thanks to both you & Jana for taking the time to detail the idea of ‘stacking’. Congrats too to Jana on her recent successes in tournament play!

    Your discussion of when/why stacking is used — mostly in mixed competitions vs rec play — was both helpful and clearly outlined.

    The topics you folks cover both on your website as well as the podcasts are an absolutely fabulous resource for everyone from novices to advanced skilled players. Thanks SO MUCH for what the pickleballkitchen.com is providing! I want to believe that the helps provided are greatly assisting many in their journeys into the highly entertaining and addictive game of pickleball. Your discussions and postings have helped me & thanks again!
