Jeroen from Unicum in Leiden provides tips on how to avoid being taken advantage of when lobbing in padel tennis. He emphasizes the significance of location, advising players to play shorter, alter their angles and speeds, and position themselves closer to the net in order to make it more difficult for opponents to lob. Jeroen also suggests exercising patience and taking more aggressive shots toward the fence or sidewall.
Tips four, five, six, and seven are specific strategies that involve playing a faster drive to the center of the court, focusing on the opponent rather than the ball, avoiding running forward too much when regaining position, staying near the second post, playing the bajada instead of the bandeja from a distance, playing the smash or a fake smash, and playing the smash or a fake smash. In general, Jeroen advises participants to adjust to lobbing strategies and engage in proactive play to obtain an edge.
