A soft volley or shot that dies just over the net. It works when both opponents are deep behind the service line.

When both opponents are deep at the back glass. Off a soft ball at the net, as a change from deep volleys.

Soft hands, open the racket face and take the pace off. Aim just over the net and close to the side glass. Cover the reply in case they reach it.
