award-winning journalist and native Arizonan.
As a high school engineering teacher, university
adjunct professor, and NASA Education
Ambassador, he was drawn to the physics
underlying the game of pickleball. In this book,
Ofstedahl combines his love of science and
the game into an easy-to-read examination of
such topics as:
How fast is the ball really moving?
Is there a better angle for winning serves?
How much force does it take to ... ?
What does spin actually do to the ball?
How do I avoid low-probability shots?
Is being at the kitchen mathematically advantageous?
With experimentation using timers, force sensors, radar, NASA computer simulators, and a wind tunnel, Ofstedahl leads us down a road where science and sport come together - where the rubber meets the court, so to speak.
This book is a "How To" guide on when a little knowledge behind the science and math involved can improve your pickleball game.
