Differentiating and improving Padel overhead shots technique.

🏆 Your #1 Takeaway

How can I improve my overhead shots in Padel?

Focus on differentiating overhead variations like the vibora, rulo, and gancho, and practice a consistent preparation to decide the final shot late, using back muscles and avoiding the racket going under the ball.

What Your Guru Thinks

This analysis offers a different perspective on traditional overhead shots. The coach explains why they prefer teaching variations like the vibora, rulo, and gancho instead of the classic bandeja. Understanding these distinctions and the key technical points, like using your back muscles and consistent preparation, can really elevate your overhead game. It gives you more options and versatility from high balls.
