Difference between tomahawk and pendulum serve

Hi Alois

Is there any differnce between the tomahawk and the pendulum serve if the type of spin of the two serves is the same.

Hi Yap,

The balls spins in different directions with the two serves.  The tomahawk you are going on the right hand side of the ball and the Pendulum you are brushing on the left of the ball.

Even with different serves that you brush on the same side of the ball, such as the Tomahawk and Reverse Pendulum, there are different effects on the ball due to slightly different contacts you can make.
