where on the paddle and ball is the best way to make a fade shot ?
Hi Mayo,
You can hit the ball anywhere on the paddle. The middle is OK for this shot. The more important thing is the angle of the paddle when the ball hits it. You need to have the tip of your bat above your wrist to make the ball fade away or spin away.
Our advice is to avoid the backhand smash and play the forehand smash instead. However if you do get caught out and need to play it, watch this video to learn the right technique to use.
