Mastering corner glass defense with proper footwork.

PadelJo
🏆 #1 Takeaway - How to effectively defend balls coming off the back and side glass?
Turn your body to face sideways, use continuous small steps to follow the ball as it separates from the glass, wait for it to drop to a manageable height, and hit it low, adjusting footwork based on the ball's pace.

What Your Guru Thinks

This lesson is super valuable if you struggle with those tricky balls that come off both the back and side glass. The coach emphasizes the crucial body turn and waiting for the ball to separate from the glass, which many players miss. They also show a progression drill that really helps you get the right feel for the movement. Understanding the footwork variations based on ball speed is a key takeaway here.
