20230415014 · 2023-12-28 ·

A system and method for resiliently binding a user's arms to one another to allow the user to swing a paddle while preventing excessive backswing. The system is attached by a first cuff to the wrist of a user's paddle hand and by a second cuff to the user's opposing bicep. The two cuffs are connected using a resilient band long enough to allow the user to freely strike a ball with a paddle using either a backhand or forehand stroke. The band is short enough to provide resistance if the user attempts to execute a long backswing on a forehand stroke. If the user tries to move the paddle too far rearward the resilient band provides resistance to continued movement. The system provides constant feedback to avoid long forehand backswings, while allowing backhand strokes and forehand strokes with short backswings.
