Hi Martin,

It is probably easiest to push this back.  Open up the angle of your racket to allow for the heavy backspin.

To return a Reverse Pendulum backspin serve you can also push the return.  Allow for the sidespin and the backspin.  The ball will spin off to your left so face your bat to the right.  You also need to allow for the backspin by have an open angle on your racket.
