Understanding when and why to use the Gancho shot in Padel.

PadelJo
🏆 #1 Takeaway - When should I use the Gancho shot in Padel?
Use the Gancho when starting out with overhead shots, to maintain net position against fast or difficult lobs, to slow down the game's pace, in windy conditions, or when the ball is behind you. It's also highlighted as a good option for right-side players dealing with lobs to their left shoulder.

What Your Guru Thinks

This lesson is really helpful if you're wondering about the Gancho shot. Sven explains clearly when this shot is a good option and when you should avoid it. It’s great for beginners learning overheads and also useful for more experienced players looking to add tactical variety to their game. You'll get a better understanding of how to use softer shots to your advantage.
