Aggressive padel defense using strategic lobs and volley lobs.

PadelJo
🏆 #1 Takeaway - How can I use defensive shots to gain an advantage?
By employing strategic lobs (especially high or targeted at the opponent on the right's backhand) and volley lobs to push opponents back, control court position, and create opportunities to attack or dictate play, rather than solely relying on glass defense.

What Your Guru Thinks

Sven and the coaches share some valuable ideas on how to play defense aggressively from the back of the court. They show you how specific lobs and other shots can help you take control of the point and put pressure on opponents. This strategy can be very effective, especially when you are facing players who are strong at the net. It's a useful perspective that goes beyond just relying on the glass for defense.
