How to use slice spin effectively on the Bandeja shot.
How should I apply spin to my Bandeja shot?

What Your Guru Thinks
This information from coach Sandy is quite useful, especially if you're finding your Bandeja isn't as effective as you'd like. Sandy explains why focusing on complex spins isn't necessary and how getting a simple slice right can make a big difference. Pay close attention to the advice about contact point and movement back, it's crucial for creating that low bounce that troubles opponents. Understanding the slight differences for hitting from the left versus the right side is also a valuable detail.
