Who has never been the victim of put in the fridge padel ? The strategy can pay off if there is clearly an imbalance in a pair and its execution is well executed.

Roman Taupin de Padelonomics returns to this still inspiring theme.

“Putting in the fridge” or “the strategy of playing only on one of the two opposing players” is by no means anti-gambling, it is one of the basic strategies of the game. padel whatever its level. But do you know how to make a good “freezing” strategy to disgust your opponents? The little extras to know to improve this strategy:

put in the fridge padel

- Never play 100% of the balls on a single player, rather make 80% -20%. Otherwise, your game will be predictable and opponents will be able to anticipate your shots. In addition, the player who receives all the balls might gain confidence and become more and more mentally strong as the game progresses. The 80-20 allows you to break the monotony and surprise.

- Choose the balls you play on each player. The balls that are complicated for you, you play them on the “weak” player who will not put you in danger. On the other hand, as soon as you have an easy ball, you attack on the “strong” player. This will frustrate the opposing team who will not have time to get into the rhythm. The “strong” player will be extremely frustrated because he will not be able to say that he does not touch a ball (because he will touch some) and will make a lot of faults (because the only balls that he will touch, they will be very complicated balls) .

- You can “put in the fridge” only when you are in defense or only in attack, only on 3 consecutive games, then make an “off” game, then start again, it can also be a way to vary, to destabilize opponents more effectively so that they never get into the rhythm.
