Serving

I know this is a vague question, but as a very approximate and rough rule of thumb, how much percentage of the spin on serve would you say should be generated by your wrist, and how much by your arm?

Hi Ji-Soo,

Another interesting question.   I Think 80 to 90% is generated by the wrist and the rest by the rest of your body because the wrist is where you generate the speed of the racket and that is what helps to generate the extreme spin.

The Float Serve

The float or no spin serve is an effective tool to have in your bag of serves. It adds good variation to your serves and can often set you up with an easy 3rd ball opportunity.
