Rafael Nadal - The best banana shot ever

[The8arber]

unreal

[Mrsupertennis1995]

As FedererNation1RF said the best one is in AO versus Kohlschreiber

This video should be named " Rafael Nadal - The best slice banana shot ever "

[zakricsi]

It was amazing shot!!!!!!!

[BrainSane237]

What's with the fast forwarding?

[SanchoColins]

and he also stoles a banana suit

[pannyrocker]

It's the best sliding backhand banana slice ever! :D

[bico500]

boomerang snake :D

[extradessert]

wats a banana shot? lol

[superjerk321]

@extradessert Its when the ball curves at a angle and hits back into the court.

[mooncrest8000]

betty crocker

[BrotherTree1]

Time to eat a banana.

[Summon256]

oh seems like i got the trick....he eats bananas between games and when changing sides and shoot them when on court playing...should've seen this one coming...

[VorvoKBChandraW]

Backhand Banana :O XD

[polychronio]

did he intend that banana shot? wow....can't believe it...loooks like a football banana shot....

[Zoomslang]

@polychronio why its called banana shot?

[polychronio]

@Zoomslang because the shot goes curve like a banana look like....

[Zoomslang]

@polychronio oh yea i get it...but it went outside the edge of the net what if the net is actually wider and hit the ball so its kinda not acceptable....

[fmpjs]

this is not a banana shot actually. banana's shot = topspin , that one = slice ¬¬

[TurdFergusonJunior]

@fmpjs a banana shot is the arc of the trajectory curving out and then in regardless of topspin or backspin so by definition the path not the "english" determines whether it's a banana shot ..so it IS a banana shot and you are wrong

[KimbaNetherlands]

omygod this is sick <3 I love this! Nadal's keep doing these shots over and over again :D vamos!

[yosoyignacio1]

just luck

[Sajt152976]

but how?



[jman73094]

wow i am a tennis player and i have trouble how nadal even does these banana shots so well and precise.... man it must be talent....

[msane4XX]

Seems like Rafa's banana shots are always on set point!

[pizzapunt301]

@msane4XX

It's not set point ;)

[msane4XX]

@pizzapunt301 Oh jeez, didn't notice. Well, make it 6 games then, haha

[r0baa]

this is the best slice banana shot

[u229758]

Sick. Absurd. Everyone should go home and change the rules of the game, you just can' beat it.

[TheMSwarriors]

thats just insane. 

[archubii]

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAT?

[sbjo]

BOOMERANG SNAKE~~~



[TheFernando35563]

I think nadal did not see monfils...he only put it away...

[LilGel13]

MADA MADA DANE !!

[extradutyfelt1]

thought it would be a forehand spinning ripper from rafa, not a slice bakchand..very good return anyway.

[ruaridh2k7]

I'd honestly feel so stupid getting this shot on me.

I'd retire there and then.

Bad sportsmanship I know=[

[nachitopp]

QUE LOCURA...POR DIOS...

JAJAJA ES LO MAS!!!

[exitingforward]

Monfils bad footwork on the serve volley.. Watch a Pete Sampras vid and compare the s/v.. Sampras.. 1,2, split-step and bolt to the side to get volleys.. Monfils ran through the s/v --- a big no no! Even if he did split -- would of been a heck of a dig to get that one back!

[VideoGamerDanny]

Maybe this is because he only wears yellow. Like a banana.

[martinezaguado]

My favourite is the one against Verdasco at the AO 2009, but this was quite good

[Paramorerocks19]

Why do they call it a banana shot? I'd call it a snake shot lmao

[lordbossharrow]

wowww

[narutofanjustin]

this is the best ever

[Zyura89]

not bad...it's good/impressive

[guineveredawn]

Waaaaaa, what kind of backhand is that!! Amazing!

[3DGNumberOneFan]

One vs Verdasco at AO 2009 better and vs Fed AO 2009

[FedererNation1RF]

not as good as the one vs kohlschreiber at the australian open

[ffallenaangel]

@FedererNation1RF yeaaaaa

[fmpjs]

that is not a banana shot :S

[SoulisAll]

This is the best banana slice ever! but i think the best banana shot ever is the one against kohlschreiber this year in australia that was even more sick!!

only nadal can produce this kind of shots.

[luisdjokovic]

@SoulisAll yeah i think so to, but this one was with the backhand sick shot!

[cortadew]

@SoulisAll nadal and fed

[JazzMJFAN]

WOW <3

[foul01]

i beg to disagree

the best banana shot by rafa is the one in the verdasco match

not just because of its spin and curvature, but because it was hit after some 20+ shot rally

this is the best banana shot by a slice i've ever seen though

[GladiatoRule1]

The noise from his shoes is an Art!

[Jasminbaum]

OMG!!! I never saw something like that before

[flex2125]

ya sick shot and nice win in japan

[AkiraKurosawa82]

That was sick.
