[box type = ”info”] Jérémy Scatena, several times French champions of padel and European champion of padel 2015, gives us his advice to better play padel through THE CHRONICLE OF THE SCAT [/ box]
For a right-hander it is very important to move the right foot forward diagonally (15 / 20cm) to the left corner where the ball comes from with the right leg bent.
It is very important on this kind of volley that the racket is prepared well above the ball to give as for the feet a significant inertia from top to bottom. The shot must be done with great intensity because your opponents must be disturbed if they take the ball before the glass. If they can not (to take before the glass) the point will probably be won.
At this point you have to push on the right leg to get up like a cork, then transfer the weight of the body in one step from the right leg to the left leg. At the moment of impact your feet do not touch the ground.
This makes it possible to put all the weight of the body in the ball by initiating a force from top to bottom (be careful, choose balls that are not too low). This inertia from top to bottom will be repeated after the glass. The left hand should show the ball and move towards the ground.
I advise the right player to place this kind of volley either in the middle for more security, or on his opponent left.
For the player on the left, it will be either in the middle (security) or on the player on the right by touching the side window first. Devastating effects guaranteed.
