A fun, but totally unrelated fact: started watching the video with subtitles switched on, and every time someone says "lob", it's auto-subtitled as "love". Made the whole video a lot more fun :)
Awesome video! I love playing the lob, but I need to be careful not to pick up bad habits. At my lower level, a lot of players think they can smash, but actually make way more mistakes trying than they hit winners. So especially when I see a smash-happy player I caught myself playing them slightly too short lobs to tempt them into smashing... Reeaaaally backfires against better players though
Really, really, really good video. First video I came across that touches so many different aspects of playing lob. I am newbie, so most likely I will have to come back to this one every month or two, but it's pure gold. Great job, amigos! Vamos!
Great tips lesson thank you. I am new to Spain and Padel from a squash and tennis background and although I hope I am learning quickly it is very helpful to have certain tips to work on each time I play . Thanks
PERFECT coaching video! And timing is great for ME as I have been working out all of these issues recently myself so I absorbed like a sponge every word from this video. Already watched it 3 times but will watch it again and again. MUCHAS GRACIAS !!!
Great video, your questions, and German explanation make it so easy to understand. I am not used to hitting low balls so good to know when I should use it instead of lobs.
Thank you once again! Very good video! German Schafer delivers once again. Just an idea for the next video is to add an extra stationary camera or two to show the example shots. Much love!
hey great video .... am the one who uses the slice lob and will change that also short flat lob was helpful.... have improved so much since last month only after seeing your tutorial videos .... vamos !!!!!!!
Next time, please show more examples and video angles how you place the lob. This time it was to much focused on only you two talking. Much more examples please! But still good video :)
Another great video for you two guys! Playing on the right side it is very nice to know that the lob is more imporant than the smash, because the lob i can do pretty good, the smash not so much :)
Maaaaan, just realized watching this that i took too many risks when lobbing, instead of thinking about opponent's court position and lobbing accordingly (with sometimes less risky lobs, but taking more into account court position). Also, gotta us that quick lobe more (i use it from time to time and didn't even know it was a thing)
I hear alot of people saying that the lobb is the most important shot in padel. Imo the lobb is a vital part of the game and needs to work on, but the volley is what wins me points! How do I hit more volleys? By hitting better lobbs ofc but also better badeja and better chiquita! So I cant say the lobb is the most important shot alone!
@@OtroNivelPadel yes, and the lobb is a goid way to take the net, but alos with the chiquita. And when you got the net you need to keep it with good volley and bandeja and so on! Yes you need a good lobb ofc.
My partner does it a few times per match and I dont like it! Its high risk low reward imo! If you do it 5 times per game I guess the result will be like 2 fails, 1 winner and 2 neutral balls, if you do a normal lobb the result should be 5 neutral balls, and thats how Ilike it!
If possible a video where to aim to set up points from the right and another video where to aim to set op points from the left. Maybe learn us some standard tactics we can use.
Hey, any tips how to lob down the line(along the fence) and not to hit the fence ? Often it is pretty uncomfortable to catch that angle due to the angle the ball is coming to you.
Well… than you might be playing lobs on shots that you shouldn’t lob. Try a straight lob on softer shots or shots where you can use the glass with. If you play on the right, only lob straight with your forehand if you are right handed. And the other way around.
I have some doubts with the globe because my opponents have a very good “bajada” when the ball arrives to the back glass… and if try to make it lower or reduce the speed they have a very good high hit and the smashes are finishers. If I play low.. they start getting more and more closer to the net and make them easier to play the definitive volley. So, where do we have to play the globe with this type of players? Do we have to play the globe more to the corner? Do you recommend to continue sending the globe to the center/left shoulder of the right player? High globe? How we can make the globe to stay closer to the back glass to avoid those great “bajadas”? Thanks.
You should aim the lob around the service line, in the center. If they let it bounce the ball will be stuck against the glass. They are not able to play the bajada
Thank you for all this effort. As you mentioned best lob aim spot is in the center and abit inside the right side court. But this won't be that useful with left-hand player playing in there right side of the court. Once, again amazing content and you guys kept improving our padel... Bitchooooo
Your video is fully completed. During wpt games a couple of times i have listened speaking about bande-globo: getting out a globo with bandeja preparation
Goede video maar was een beetje verbaasd bij 23.26 toen je een topspin lob suggereerde. Dat is een tennisslag maar geen logische keuze op een padelbaan..
A fun, but totally unrelated fact: started watching the video with subtitles switched on, and every time someone says "lob", it's auto-subtitled as "love". Made the whole video a lot more fun :)
🤣🤣 A lot of love from the subtitles
I'm always happy when Sven uploads a video with German. You guys are the best duo
Thanks amigo!
German is definitely the best padel coach on RUclips!
I will tell him!
Thanks again. I love your video's with German. So much food for thought. I always have to watch them three times before I fully grasp eveything.
Thank you!
Hats off! Can safely say, German provides the best padel content of the net. Hope to be able to train with him in the future
I will tell him 💪🏼💪🏼
Great video. GREEEAT coach. Lob when you have the option - lob more! More German content 👏🏼
Will try!
Heel erg fijn die video's met German. Erg leerzaam. Dank je. Ik zie graag meer video's met hem.
Thanks Johnny!

Very good tactics! Makes a lot of sence
There was a lot going on there.Great video, but could you make an edited one for, say, just beginners -
& lower grades. Cheers.

Great to hear Adam! Glad it helps!

MUCHAS GRACIAS !!!
Vamoos Stefano!! Great to hear!
So much to think about. German was clinical in his assessment.
Thanks!
absolutely love watching you guys play and chat....i definitely need to lob more...
Thank you! Keep lobbing!
Amazing video again! German’s knowledge and simple explanation is gold!
Vamooos
Great video as usual. In Sweden I Think the Chiquita is the Most underrated shot. The chiquita/lob combo is PADEL for me.
Yess! Very important
Great video, your questions, and German explanation make it so easy to understand.
I am not used to hitting low balls so good to know when I should use it instead of lobs.
Yes! Good teacher. All that is why is and art the use of lobs👍
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
This was so insightful. Thank you! (I need to stop using slice in my lobs 😅, but it’s so fun when it drops dead behind the opponent)
Thanks man! Well if you have time and it works :)
Thank you once again! Very good video! German Schafer delivers once again.
Just an idea for the next video is to add an extra stationary camera or two to show the example shots.
Much love!
Will do!

Great to hear amigo!
this is the great video maybe the greatest I've seen on padel lessons, thx to both.
Thank you man!
A great video about the lob guys! Thanks!
Thanks Marco!
Next time, please show more examples and video angles how you place the lob. This time it was to much focused on only you two talking. Much more examples please! But still good video :)
Will do!
@@OtroNivelPadel I prefer German’s explanations here, he explained it with the game context. Of course, not everyone can relate to that.
thanks voor de content maat. ik kijk alles. speel nu een half jaar en kan er geen genoeg van krijgen. Keep it up..
Thanks amigo!
Another great video for you two guys! Playing on the right side it is very nice to know that the lob is more imporant than the smash, because the lob i can do pretty good, the smash not so much :)
Si senor!
German is a genius:) Really good content and well explained , well done to both of you
Thank you amigo!
Lobs makes games tactical, and tactical is beautiful.
Yes it is!
Good job. The lob is very important.
Yes it is! Thanks
Another great video. German is the best.
Perhaps I need to see the video again, but I didn’t get the lob tactics for the leftside player?
Its very similair! The only thing is that you can lob more parallel
Maaaaan, just realized watching this that i took too many risks when lobbing, instead of thinking about opponent's court position and lobbing accordingly (with sometimes less risky lobs, but taking more into account court position). Also, gotta us that quick lobe more (i use it from time to time and didn't even know it was a thing)
This is how you learn amigo! If you experience this more often you will improve even faster
Like always great content for intermediate and also for advanced players.
Thank you!
Such a good video! i learned a lot! Good class!
Thank you!
Great vid Sven! More German content please!!
Thank you!
Excellent content!!!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you too!
xcellent thnx Sven 🤩
Very nice video!
Thank you!
Good one!! For later when I am more experienced haha

How about lobs using the side glass (after striking the ball)? More German! Bamos!
My partner does it a few times per match and I dont like it! Its high risk low reward imo! If you do it 5 times per game I guess the result will be like 2 fails, 1 winner and 2 neutral balls, if you do a normal lobb the result should be 5 neutral balls, and thats how Ilike it!
Very dangerous, will not recommend that

Here to educate people
Yes
I don't understand players who just hit tennis shots from the backcourt and don't use the lob. I actually felt a little sorry for them. LOB LOVE.
Yes its horrible. Start lobbing :)
Vamos!
Vamooos

How can we book a lesson with German in Marbella? Who to contact?
Contact German on instagram DM
German is fucking AWESOME
Vamooos

Yes, than it would be in the middle
German is great!
More of German on monday!
🔥🔥🔥
Venga
What Dropshot paddle uses the teacher?
I don’t know
What if the player in the right side is lefthanded?
Lob to the player with a worse overhead: or lob more parallel over the non hitting shoulder
Tell us something about bande-globo!!?!
The skylob?
Your video is fully completed. During wpt games a couple of times i have listened speaking about bande-globo: getting out a globo with bandeja preparation
Maaaaan.. I LOVE YOU GERMAN and SVEN.. (H)
Thanks amigo!
❤️
And honestly, I am a right court player and I love the slice lob when its on my backhand 🙄.. Sorry German 🤣
Oh no, yellow card ⚠️
Well if you feel comfortable, do it :)
🤣🤣🤣
camouflated = make yourself big as a balloon to camouflage your lobs
Goede video maar was een beetje verbaasd bij 23.26 toen je een topspin lob suggereerde. Dat is een tennisslag maar geen logische keuze op een padelbaan..
Dat snap ik, maar ik krijg die vragen in de comments vaak. Dus het is iets wat wel gebeurt. Zelf speel ik nooit een topspin lob
Who dosent want to understand the lob critical importance in the game, never manages the padel game.
Agree!
U r tha past than Ku allot
What?
I mean I learn a lot from u so thanku u r tha best
