Skills for squash - Backhand pendulum swing

Control, power, balance and speed will all be enhanced once you train your muscles to use a pendulum swing. It is very accurate and has a safe follow through for your opponent finishing strongly to allow you to come off the ball early. There is so much to like in this swing and it will develop your core muscles making you feel in full control.

This is not a punch drive with minimal follow through like the forehand. Is this better than punch driving on the backhand?

You use different swings for different situations, you can punch a pendulum swing if you like or have the higher follow through.

It helps players remember it

[@uwen1443]

a reasonable swing technique option in some situations but it places you to close to the ball and away from the centre

[@squashanalysis5670]

You use different swings for different circumstances but you should always remember target is the number one requirement for any swing.
