Faster courts, different bounce, and how to adapt.
Indoor padel in autumn plays differently. Here is what to expect.
No Wind, No Excuses
Your lobs will land where you aim them. That cuts both ways.
A Livelier Bounce
Warm indoor air and dry glass make the ball sit up. Take it earlier.
Lighting and Lobs
Look for the ball against the roof, not the lights. Move your feet early so you are never smashing blind.
Grip It Tighter
Indoor courts feel quicker. Shorten your swing and keep the ball in play.
