how do you do those fast services that land deep on the other side of the table?

 like the one demonstrated in "Placement of the Serve" video.

Hi Vangeo,

To do that fast serve you need to hit the ball flat and get it to bounce close to you on your side of the table.

Also concentrate on keeping the ball really low.  The lower and faster you can hit it the more effective it will be.

Remember like everything else, it is about getting out there and hitting it a lot of times before it gets better.
