Serve and smash
Serve, close in, and finish a short return with an overhead when the receiver lifts the ball weakly.

When the return is short, high and in front of you. When the receivers are out of position after a good serve.
So spielst du ihn

Ist der Schlag serve and smash im Padel erlaubt?
Legal: the ball is in play once the serve has bounced in the box (Rule 12.2), and an overhead that bounces in the opponents' court and then hits the walls or fence is a correct return (Rule 14.1c).
