Bajada: backhand
The attacking shot on a ball that rebounds high off the back glass, played on the backhand side. Harder than the forehand, and a real weapon at higher levels.
Quando giocarlo
On high balls off your back glass on the backhand side. When the other pair expect a defensive lob.
Come giocarlo
Turn early and let the ball drop to shoulder height. Contact in front with a firm, slicing swing. Aim low and deep, through the middle.
Errori comuni
Hitting too early while the ball is still rising. Trying for power instead of a low, deep ball.
