Learn when to play soft or fast from defense in Padel.

PadelJo
🏆 #1 Takeaway - How should I vary my pace when playing defensively in Padel?
Vary your pace by playing slower shots to control the point, reduce stress, and force errors, especially with shots like the chiquita and lob. Use faster shots from a high contact point to pressure opponents, particularly targeting their body or exploiting weaknesses like an eastern forehand volley grip. Adjust based on opponent positioning and playing style.

What Your Guru Thinks

This lesson is insightful if you are looking to understand defensive strategies and vary your game. Sven explains clearly when to use slower and faster shots in defense. Understanding when to change pace can really disrupt your opponents rhythm and give you an edge. It's a good lesson to think about tactical variations in your defensive play.
