Do you guys notice how flat shoes from the back back and forhands are more pushing motion than swinging

I see a lot of my friends just swinging how they see others do when I feel it’s more a bit pushing the ball when hitting flat, like imagining you’re hitting two balls

It's a pushing motion more than a hitting motion. With a hitting motion, you'll never be able to play proper chiquitas. Gotta have those soft hands. Hardest part of the game.

Yes also with hitting motion you don’t have control over placement , it’s a pushing motion in the direction you want to hit

New to padel and curious to learn how do you build the motion of pushing the ball? Would be nice if you could share a reference
