Mastering Padel backhand technique and common errors.
What Your Guru Thinks
This lesson is incredibly useful if you're looking to refine your backhand. The coach walks through common mistakes like finishing position and impact point, offering clear adjustments. You'll learn the importance of your non-dominant hand and proper body rotation. It's a great demonstration of how small changes can significantly impact your shot control. Pay close attention to the feedback on closing the racket face.
Description
This episode is all about the backhand from the back of the court.
For me, it’s one of the shots I’ve worked on the most in my career, and still one of the hardest. With the forehand I feel solid and confident, but on the backhand I often struggle with preparation, timing, and generating enough length.
Hugo breaks down the key concepts to build a powerful, consistent backhand — especially the role of the non-dominant hand, which is where most of the power actually comes from.
We spent 20 minutes working in detail, adjusting small things that make a huge difference for advanced players.
This series is aimed at players who love technique, mechanics and deeper understanding of the game. If you’re an advanced player or a padel geek… you’re going to enjoy this a lot.
Hope you like this episode, and let me know in the comments what shot you want us to cover next with Hugo.
