Slice forehand
A forehand with backspin for a low, skidding bounce and more control, the natural forehand for many padel players.
Quando a jogar
On low balls, and when you want control rather than pace. To keep the ball low against net players.
Como a jogar
Open the racket face a little and swing high to low through the ball. Keep the contact in front and the swing compact. Follow through towards the target.
Erros comuns
Chopping under the ball so it floats. Cutting so much that the ball has no pace and sits up.

A slice forehand é legal no padel?
Legal under Rule 12.3: play the ball after one bounce, off the glass if you like, before it bounces again. It must reach the opponents' court, directly or off your own walls (Rule 14.1b), and must not hit their walls or fence first (Rule 13.1g).
