Control vs Pace

Apuntes de la lección

Bandeja base

The bandeja is not a smash. It is a reset shot that keeps you at net while taking pace off the lob.

What to feel

  • Side-on contact
  • Racquet head above the ball
  • Finish across the body, not straight down
  • Recover one step back to the middle

Drill

1. Feed a high lob.

2. Hold the contact point for one second.

3. Land balanced and recover to split step.

If you feel rushed, slow the swing before you slow the feet.

Ejercicios
