What perfect slider spin looks like

Me who has accidentally been throwing this for the past 3 years

The slider was created by the devil, pure evil.

Sons been throwing it since age 12. Only recently truly started using it more. It’s not that complicated fellas but like any pitch takes time to develop. I didn’t know the sweeping slider was a thing until all these highlight videos.

I throw my slider completely different and it works everytime

What happened to ppl teaching it three finger grip an throw it like a football? Thatss by far the hardest pitch I throw and for some reason doesnt wear my arm out

Great tip.

I just throw it with < spin I can do like this doorknob spin but it curves more with the way I do it

Can a wilson ball can do a slider?

Ik this works to, but it could be better if u dont get straight gyro movement because bullets don’t move so you also want side spin and maybe some top spin

My 10 year old sun throws everything with a weird Gyro spin and no he hasn't been taught anything but a 4 & 2 seam grip and a changeup grip,, drives his baseball coaches crazy, any thoughts on that? He's done all the common throwing drills, it's still there.

I found that when throwing the slides if I feel like I am snapping my finger it gets a lot more movement then trying to throw it any other way

This helped alot

Pretend the baseball is a football.

I have been trying to throw a slider but I can never get the bullet spin right and then it just stays straight

Just throw curveball grip like a fastball. Instant slider.

Now I cam finally cosplay as gyro accurately

I'll just throw a cutter and call it a slider!

Is there a tool to practice the hand motion and spin? Like a rod attached to a free spinning rotor secured in the center of a ball. I have no mechanical imagination whatsoever, but some simple contraption to isolate that would be helpful.

Easiest way to throw a slider. What I was told by the guy who threw the best slider I’d seen at that time. Act like your throwing your fast ball but but at the moment you’d snap your wrist crank your wrist to the left. Obviously grip it like a curve not a 4 seam FB. Man my slider was way better after that.

So u need to pronate through the baseball, right?

Thank you so much.

i needed this badly

Thanks needed this
