Improving bandeja depth and pressure to gain court advantage.

🏆 Your #1 Takeaway

How can I improve my bandeja for better tactical advantage?

Improve your bandeja by focusing on separation, depth, and hitting it to force the ball to bounce close to the back wall, which pressures opponents and allows you time to recover the net position.

What Your Guru Thinks

This analysis with coach Dani is particularly insightful if you're looking to elevate your bandeja game. He works with Jerry on key elements beyond just hitting the shot, focusing on the tactical outcome. Understanding separation, depth, and how the shot sets up your recovery to the net is crucial. It highlights that the goal is often about pressuring your opponent and gaining time, not just hitting a winner.
