Enable boosted jump first in your settings: Settings >> game settings >> Configure control customization
Click on its icon and enable:
1. Red shot (the power shot)
Red shots are useful in any situation when you want a lot of power on your hit (but you also want to stay with the ball)
To do it: front flip into the ball (arrow + jump*2) >> hit the ball with the nose of your car >> ball will glow the blue+pink color

2. Purple shot (the defensive shot)
Purple shots are extremely useful when you need to get back into a defensive position immediately. When used facing upwards the purple shot forces your car back down towards the ground meaning you can get back into a defensive position immediately
To do it: face the underside of your car towards the ball >> let go of your left joystick >> jump (as soon as you let go of your left joystick)

3. Gold shot (the backward shot)
Gold shots are used when you want to pop the ball over your opponent but not totally commit to the shot. Technically speaking it’s harder to do and not that useful compared to the other two kinds of shots.
To do it: aim your car away from the ball >> flip (arrow + jump*2) in that direction (basically the opposite of the purple shot)
