HOW & WHEN to SLICE....Dropshot vs Attacking!

There is a variety of slice shots in padel, all requiring slightly different techniques! So in this video we explain how to hit slice and when to use it with attacking volleys, but also the DROPSHOT!

Slice in padel is used at different times to tennis, so changing that mindset is important for those coming from tennis! Here slice is used on higher balls when you are more attacking in the point, either to finish the point or to "setup" the finishing shot!

Super content as usual! As a former tennis player the biggest differences lie in playing slice with overheads and with volleys. Even though a vibora is very much like a slice serve into the A side outer corner in tennis and base line shots with slice are very much like a chip-and-charge shots in tennis and even the volley drop shot is somewhat familiar from tennis, hitting volleys softer and with more slice and the bandeja with slice are totally specific to padel and still require hours upon hours to get the muscle memory in. The grind continues!

Thx Sandy. I love the dropshot it's easier with the backhand ....

I really enjoy your videos and since I am quite new to Padel they help me a lot!
I have one huge issue though: When I anticipate my opponent is about to smash (which is not easy to tell since he can end up going with a soft hit) I am not sure when to start running towards the net so I can hit the ball after it comes off the back glass. Most of the time I am late and can’t return that ball. Maybe you can do a video on that problem, I would appreciate it a lot!!
Keep up the good work!!

Is it good to use the slides and drop shoots?? Just the other day I was criticized for using this resource on the play. My rival was very made at me and started to yell that those shoots are ilegal on pádel and that also are a sign of a person that doesn’t know how to play padel. I said that it was the opposite because making drop shoots and slides requires of a certain technique on this

Isn't the "attacking slice" at 3:45 similar to a bandeja but after the bounce?

[ccvidor]

I just love to play against tennis players because they use lots of spin on the ball and makes it “really” easy for me to return the ball on any position at their side.. 🤩🤣

[mohammedalhelabi]

isnt it the same technique as the bandeja?
