Use the Kick Bandeja when the lob lands slightly to your non-playing shoulder side. This technique allows you to hit the ball cross-court with spin, pushing your opponent wide and giving you time to regain net position while limiting their attacking opportunities.
This lesson with coach Mauri and Max is insightful if you want to add a variation to your bandeja. It explains how to execute the kick bandeja when the ball is slightly away from your body. Understanding this technique will help you direct the ball cross-court, giving your opponent less opportunity to attack and allowing you to recover your net position more effectively. Max demonstrates the shot beautifully, making it easy to understand.
