I Trained My KICKSMASH Every Day For 5 Days!

[@EverythingPadel]

Hope you like the new style of video - any feedback is appreciated! - Ewan :)

[@youssefbadawy9902]

I think sharing your journey of improvement in many aspects in the game would make for a great series. Loved it!

[@EverythingPadel]

Yeh I want to do more like this bro💪🏼much better content

[@KTMLaranjinha]

Excelent, excelent, excelent! You're the one.

[@EverythingPadel]

thanks

[@rainman-]

Consistency is good. Consistency with variation is golden. Great vid!

[@PaulLattin]

Your honesty with your frustration and your areas for improvement is extremely encouraging. Knowing that a good player, such as you, feel and express those emotions makes the whole thing so much more relatable. I like the comment towards the end: the goal isn’t perfection but progress. This is so helpful. Thank you, Ewan!

[@francescodesimone9882]

Love this kind of content, where you are the protagonist. We get to see you training and making progress. Keep it up man, it was super entertaining

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks a lot man I will make more like this💪🏼

[@MamouSimo]

This video is really appreciated as we -padel lovers and wanting to level up- can relate :) (as opposed to pure pros giving advice). I can totally see myself in your "day 1" part. and now I know what, and how to increase my kicksmash. if you can do almost the same with some other key padel shots, that would be awesome, so we can perfect our skills in the main key shots. Huge Thanks and keep up the effort.

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks a lot💪🏼

[@cookjeremiah]

Man, well done. Congrats and great video. I have been on this journey for over a year and while I probably started getting the ball out on the first week, it has taken a full year to get to where I can do it consistently and get 9 out of 10 balls out when doing practice. My form has changed so much during this time for the better. Watching a lot of tennis serve videos on the kick serve has really helped me. It is such a fun process, it has taken me a long time but I am still getting better and getting even more excited as I find new ways to get effortless power and spin using techniques from tennis coaches talking about the kick serve

[@Thomas_Maurer]

great video! :)

[@EverythingPadel]

Thank you!!

[@gianmarcocadetto]

nice video!! well done mate. Why you change racket betweenn the metalbone hard and ml 10 lrd

[@behornet100]

Your Hard work is paying off How about a tour of padel united clubs / courts Different video in each plus overview of the club Love your videos

[@FHAN90]

Thanks man this video is all about motivation, i hated the kick smash but now I’ll try to do it again

[@candec]

Best video you have publish until today. Really useful to me

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks bro

[@GsUploads]

Helpful to see the progression. Love the humour. I like seeing the different clubs in the uk, could be a feature of your future vids

[@EverythingPadel]

Thank you so much for the feedback💪🏼 yeh I will be visiting more for videos

[@nicolascopece7530]

I learned a lot looking at you struggling with the kick smash! Great video and keep it up! Please post more videos of technical improvement like this one.

[@EverythingPadel]

More to come!

[@khaledmoustafa4790]

Extremely beneficial ! Thanks for sharing this ❤

[@tholanda614]

Great video mate, very interesting.

[@aj2103]

Love your videos, always keep posting 🙏🏼

[@EverythingPadel]

Thank you will do video out later today

[@jmcilveen1]

Great to see a genuinely interesting story & ultimate success 😀

[@JacobLangberg]

Respect for being consistent bro

[@heshamalgendy3761]

well done mate, great progress for 5 days :D keep it up bro, proud of you

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks bro

[@TheNeilhillman]

Really enjoyed that matey. Great job. Think you could make a fantastic mini series on each shot. Maybe three or four episodes on each with a little more detail. That was brilliant 👍👍

[@EverythingPadel]

thanks mate! yeh I will be making more like this :)

[@oliverfreakout]

Great job dude! It is so hard if your not coming from tennis to work up the kicksmash to the same level as the rest of the game. I have a very hard good bandeja and bajada since I've played handball and it's much like a throwing motion forward but I stuggle to get the spin and power hitting up on the ball.

[@EverythingPadel]

Couldn't agree more - it is so unnatural when you have not come from tennis

[@BenjaminVWillrt]

Such a great video super impressed with your quality lately

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks bro !!

[@alvaropalaciounibim7083]

Gran progresión, el smash en padel es de las partes tecnicas mas dificil. Setia interesante ver videos desde todos los ángulos para ver el cambio de posicion y evolución

[@liuete]

awesome content, and even greater progression in just 5 days! Huge huge difference

[@franciscofernandes3938]

My wrist and elbow are hurting just from watching!! Great Video! Keep it up! My one problem is that I try to hit the ball so high that I almost brush my arm to my ear, that makes my shoulder hurt alot! Keep it up!

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks Francisco !! Yeh I have that a bit too, such a tricky shot

[@youknowwho9247]

I'd imagine that it's like the kick serve in tennis, which is not at all about flat power, but entirely about racket head speed in the right direction: Low to high, brushing upwards against the ball. I would advise bending the knees more during preparation when there's time, to create some extra oomph when you come up for the smash.

[@davidcapper8919]

Great video, keep up the great work, on court and behind the cam!

[@EverythingPadel]

thanks so much Dave

[@EverRider]

Wow thats huge progress. Definitly need some courses about that shot 🤩

[@EverythingPadel]

💪🏼thanks

[@fahadfalasousi1758]

We need more of this type of content

[@EverythingPadel]

You will get it :)

[@jesper6765]

Yes! Dani Dios' video is so good. Master Class tutorial that has helped me with my kick smash as well! :]

[@EverythingPadel]

He’s great

[@HansWurst-td9ic]

Your problem is that your racket face is open from the beginning. When loading you need to close it and start pronating when the elbow goes up. So with a open racket face it’s much harder to brush up the ball. That’s why the GB coach is kicking the balls out so easy.

[@Andrei-Alexandru-Szilagyi]

How do you brush the ball and at the same time hit it?

[@IcazaFilms12]

Nice progress! I'm from Panamá and I'm having difficulties with my kick smash too. I now have 3 year playing and it is still too difficult for me. I wonder if my height have something to do with it 🥲 (5"2 or 160cm)

[@EverythingPadel]

Height does help , but I’ve seen some really small players in Spain and they can kick it out easy! With enough practise you can

[@IcazaFilms12]

@@EverythingPadel thank you! 😭

[@htsamp851]

You are one of us! 😂 Keep working, I am in the same spot with you

[@L2RebornInterlude]

very nice video! gz

[@sjogris7820]

finally u upload!!!

[@EverythingPadel]

Haha sorry for delay hope you enjoy

[@ohtimmay]

4h work week on the 3:05 desk 😂

[@EverythingPadel]

Great read

[@P_P_21]

Great video 💪! I really enjoyed It probably because I need to improve my kicksmash as well ( a lot 😂)

[@EverythingPadel]

most people struggle with it

[@SwissMarc]

Bravo!

[@haythemabidi1860]

What is the brand of your shirt in day 4?

[@EverythingPadel]

montirex

[@cpasa798]

0:28 watch how the face of your racket is pointing to the sky when it should be pointing to the ground. Go and watch Galán and stop the video in the same time as you and you’ll see the difference. That’s why you can’t put top spin in the ball

[@jakobbkhansen9446]

Hey mate I'm in the market for a new padel racket and have narrowed it down to either the Adidas Adipower Multiweight CTRL or the Adidas Metalbone CTRL 3.2. Which would you recommend? Thanks in advance :)

[@jakobbkhansen9446]

Great video btw :))

[@sebastiaandevylder978]

First of props to you for doing this yet i still think you need to relax more imo. Alsoo love the editing keep it up!

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks bro for advice. Glad you liked the edit!

[@sebastiaandevylder978]

@@EverythingPadel i forgot to mention to keep being confident in you being able to pulling of the kicksmash if you do it without confidence it almost never succeeds, good luck

[@halohawkxx]

Guess it be time to contact the Padel Club in NYC for me😅 time to start working with/for them and start that Padel Journey

[@EverythingPadel]

Visiting there in September 💪🏼👍🏼

[@halohawkxx]

@EverythingPadel that'll be great! Maybe I'll meet you when you come by XD I'll probably send a WhatsApp Msg soon enough then🤣 Hopefully I improve enough after starting Padel to play competitively vs you.

[@EverythingPadel]

Sure mate! WhatsApp me

[@RPWPA]

Lovely video. Didn't expect to hear the guy talking about butts tho ngl As someone still trying to hit one shot over the fence/glass, this makes it seem doable.

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks mate - haha, yeh it’s one of the hardest shots, but with practise it comes💪🏼

[@x7arthix567]

I would like to train my kicksmash for hours but I have some elbow/bicep issues and I don’t know what’s the solution for it. Every time I rest then i comeback and train my smash again the injury comes back

[@SuperFazta]

Nice bro 😊

[@MorenoCable]

this is a problem of many people like me who want to but can't…. 🤣👍 study and practice! Greetings from Italy

[@adamboquist4178]

should make an update video!

[@sanekn]

What is cool is the fact that you have a free court to practice, here it is not possible at all haha. Good technique you have here mate!

[@EverythingPadel]

Thanks mate, yes very lucky the courts are free and nice club! Padel United Maldon, in Essex

[@sanekn]

@@EverythingPadel yeah here in France (Marseille) it is impossible to have a reservation - no free courts left seconds after the reservation starts, and if you want to train some "cheaply" with a pal you have to book a singles court, otherwise it's 20€ per person for a normal one. Bad times man :)

[@EverythingPadel]

ah man, that is tough!! Shows how popular the sport is getting in france though!

[@sanekn]

@@EverythingPadel absolutely!

[@barrycoffey492]

Interesting to see how you progressed. Well done. Next time we play you will be unbeatable ( even with me as your handicap) 😂

[@EverythingPadel]

Challenge accepted

[@dennisjernberg8300]

Didn't you kick out from behind the base line in an older video? 🤔

[@EverythingPadel]

Yeh, took me about 6 hours !

[@dennisjernberg8300]

@@EverythingPadel Huh, interesting that even though your kick needed so much work in this video, that you could pull off a por tres from behind base. That's impressive.

[@EverythingPadel]

From what I found, from right at the back you just need the most topspin possible, which isn’t as hard to get when you keep feeding balls to yourself all day. Whereas midway up court, and with someone else feeding you, you need to have a lot of technique

[@dylanvanderwaarden3751]

Use a forehand grip

[@nageyyousef1757]

I think ethane can help you the most with smash 😅😂

[@jxke.0480]

They don’t know me son

[@riccardoatwork5291]

there is something really wrong in your smash movement.....you push your arm forward in a way that s quite unnatural... remember that the smash movement should be similar to what you do when you throw something. My bet would be you have not spent enough time throwing things around when you were a kid :) Most women have the same problem. This is such a common problem that in tennis, where it manifests mainly in the serve, it even has a name.. "The Waiter’s Tray Serve". kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJWxiHtsa9mla68
