🏆 #1 Takeaway - How to hit a forehand overhead shot to the fence in Padel?
To hit a forehand overhead to the fence, take the ball high when it's more open and away from you, and use a follow-through where you bring your racket towards your left elbow to create a shorter, sharper shot aiming for the unpredictable bounce off the fence.

What Your Guru Thinks

This covers a useful tactical variation for your overhead shot. The coach explains how hitting the fence can be an aggressive option without needing maximum power. By creating unpredictable bounces, you can pressure opponents even if they return deep overheads. The coach offers a simple technique cue for the follow-through that helps execute this specific shot effectively. This can add a clever tool to your attacking game.
