Backspin sidespin across

Serving

Alvin Samson Asked 13 years ago

Hello there!

My problem is that when im serving across from right to left but still with some forward momentum it seems like i get topspin, i know you need to have a fast brushing contact.

So do you have any tips and how can i see if i do any backspin?

Thanks for the answers/Alvin :)

Hi Alvin,

For the backspin you need to brush under the ball. Tilt your bat back. To tell that you have backspin on the ball watch to see what the ball does on the second and third bounces on the table. If the ball stops, or even slows down then it probably has backspin. The ultimate is if the ball stops and starts to come back towards to you.

The high toss serve looks spectacular and it gets results. It is particularly suited to the pendulum serve but we encourage you to try it out with all of your serves. Follow these instructions and add the high toss serve to your repertoire.
