@@beachtennissantamonica5018 My wife and I just started beach tennis. Trying to find some tips on how to transition from tennis to beach tennis

[@beachtennissantamonica5018]

@@JonathasSucupira Yes! Im sure you will transition fast. Few of my advices are, no backswings, hit the ball in front of your body instead of the side, and avoid slicing the ball.

Hi, in beach tennis, unlike tennis, does the grip remain unchanged for all the shots?

[@beachtennissantamonica5018]

Hi Frank, Yes! In beach tennis you should keep the same grip for all shots. Check the FAQ videos. I talk about that there. Thank you

@@beachtennissantamonica5018 thank you!

Also, at the point of contact when doing the backhand, is the left hand still supporting the racket?

[@beachtennissantamonica5018]

Great Question. It depends on the shot. If you are hitting a dynamic backhand volley, most likely you will let the left hand go, cuz you are getting in front. But defense shots, return of serve and shots closer to your body, you should keep the left hand on the paddle. Thank you

@@beachtennissantamonica5018 thank you so much, you are awesome! :)
