Kick smash
A full smash with heavy topspin so the ball jumps high off the floor and the back glass, pushing the defenders back or out of the court.
Quando giocarlo
On a lob you can reach comfortably but not finish flat. Against defenders who wait close to the back glass.
Come giocarlo
Brush up and over the back of the ball. Aim to bounce near their service line. Close to the net in case it comes back.
Errori comuni
Too little spin, so it sits up off the glass. Hitting it from behind the service line, where it lands short.
