Padel forehand

"The forehand is often the first shot you learn in padel," says padel expert Lana. "It's not about scoring early or applying pressure, but about developing a shot that you can rely on - regardless of the game situation. The more stable your forehand is, the easier everything that follows will be." This makes it all the more important to understand how to play the padel forehand and what is important. 

👉 In the video, padel expert Lana shows you what a calm and reliable forehand looks like.
