How do you teach the vibora in padel? It’s an important attacking overhead shot that allows players to apply slice, control the ball and maintain pressure on their opponents.
When coaching the vibora, I focus on three fundamental areas: the grip, the player’s stance and the throwing action used to develop racket-head speed and spin.
In this video, I demonstrate these three elements and explain how coaches can help players develop more effective technique.
The objective isn’t simply to hit the ball harder, but to develop a controlled and repeatable shot that players can confidently use during a match.
