[@OtroNivelPadel]

Great to hear!

[@mohammedalqadeeri890]

Funny guy and a fantastic Padel player ! Keep it up Coach

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Thanks man!

[@TiloVentures]

All very good tips… I have played for 10 years now, but still forget to use some of the tips… thank you 😊

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Keep going 💪🏼

[@dorinofalcomer9837]

Well done, this is a great video.I cannotwait to put this information into practice. I have only been playing for 6 months. 🤗

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Good luck amigo!

[@alexanderpalliser4993]

I do love making breakfast the day before. Great tips

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Haha superrr 💪🏼💪🏼 Vamoos

[@joeydeez4699]

Such an incredibly valuable video. Can i ask please, what is the role of the wrist on the forehand volley? Is it flexed or neutral? Is it kept firm throughout the swing? Or is flexible, kind of like used when you using a hammer to hammer a nail? Sorry for all the questions, I really struggle with this aspect of the forehand volley.

[@OtroNivelPadel]

That depends on how good you are to be honest! And the speed of the incoming ball. You can do more with the wrist if the incoming ball is slow

[@edwinangeli3856]

I love the exaggerated movements. 🙂Really drives home the point!

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Thanks! Great that you get the point 💪🏼💪🏼

[@mikebrialey5513]

I love the way that you bring your great personality to your videos. This was another super useful video. My coach is always telling me that my wrists are too floppy. I think that this comes from playing tennis where you can use wrist movement to take of pace or disguise your shot.

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Yes, that could be! Thanns for the comment Mike!

[@JervisLew]

It’s very detailed and useful! Thanks ❤ if you could put a mismark such as ❌ on the screen when you demonstrate wrong action, It’ll be more helpful.😊

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Will do!

[@stevebolan5727]

Great tips 🙏

[@krish6519]

Good stuff 👍

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Thanks

[@pete3114]

Nice tips Sven. My biggest mistake on the forehand volley ( from playing on the backhand side ) is my wrist moves into the wrong position on contact and the ball slides too much to my right toward the side /.glass .

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Maybe you are playing left players corner too much when your body is too open? You could try to play more balls into the center or rotate more; so you don’t have to use the wrist

[@pete3114]

@@OtroNivelPadel Awesome thanks Sven. Thinking I may be playing too far away from my body and /or racket face is too open and /or wrist is becoming uncocked. A great game this Padel and so many things to tty and improve :) Keep up the great Padel content !

[@ArmandoG1970]

Great video

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Thanks!

[@faisalal1189]

Hey coach, If you can please clarify more on having the racket more straight when you hit towards the fence. Do you mean straight = less open = more closed. Second when you open your racket do you use your wrist or you rotate the whole arm? Thank you in advance

[@OtroNivelPadel]

More straight would be: the top of the racket is aiming at the sky. More open would be, the top of the racket is facing the fence next to you.

[@saiti06]

Thanks 😜

Wat ik leuk zou vinden als je wat tactische tips wil delen dmv analyse van wedstrijden op amateur en semi amateur niveau

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Goed idee!

[@Harmoodi]

Hello coach, one question, i just removed my original basic grip, can i put any normal grip as my new basic grip? Or i must buy x-grip, shockout grip? Because i found that our stores in UAE don't have them, then decided to put any normal grip like wilson and then add over grips. Can i do it?

[@mmidi9130]

Many (pro)players remove the original grip and only use an overgrip (or multiple overgrips). There is no right or wrong answer. It is a matter of preference. Shockout / Hesacore grips help with comfort if you have an issue with that.

[@OtroNivelPadel]

You can add a shockout base grip, x grip or standard basic grip

[@Harmoodi]

@@mmidi9130 thank you brother, this really helps

[@Harmoodi]

@@OtroNivelPadel noted coach, thanks.

[@Lucido5]

Bro they sell the X Grip here on the padelers website in UAE

[@Миханаганидр]

Making a ball underneath the ball killed me :)

[@OtroNivelPadel]

A bowl 😁

[@paolo9882]

Italian version please

[@OtroNivelPadel]

We have italian subtitles

[@GameOver556]

My biggest common mistake is running into the ball and hit it while still moving

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Yes, that is also very common. Try to avoid rushing. Move slow

[@tonloc8]

As a left-handed player, should I also use the left rope?😂

[@OtroNivelPadel]

🤣🤣 No the right rope would be much better 🤣🤣

[@einarmb]

Woman at 3:41 going "bigwtf"

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Hahaha

[@AndrewHebson]

All of them 😂. Particularly not coming to meet the ball or rotating.

[@davidbernardo169]

I don't think kick the ball on the top is a good idea, if that so you will probably send the ball to the net, however the others explanation are fine, good job!

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Thank you! If you open your stance of the racket you will not hit the net

[@arnewessels3568]

@@OtroNivelPadel I'm curious about this one as well. So what is the "top of the ball" @2:50min? Or maybe you mean the front/your side of the ball? thanks!

[@ruidomingues2538]

The GRIP, is always the GRIP. dumb me

[@OtroNivelPadel]

What do you mean?

[@pdlAaron]

Are you sure about 'never hit the bottom of the ball and always hit the top'. You often have to hit under the ball because the ball drops below net height, for a high volley you should hit the rear side of the ball, you had no footwork in your examples which caused the poor quality shots, not that you hit under the ball. Even in your correct example you hit the rear of the ball.

[@OtroNivelPadel]

Yes, that would be the ideal goal. Sidespin is also possible, but it depends where you are playing towards. I make the example I bit too obvious, that is correct

[@IamRayz]

Those socks are hella ugly, only in padel are players so weak they think they need that. Ever see that is tennis? C'mon

[@OtroNivelPadel]

I like them a lot
