How do you do a fast serve?

Hi Francis,

To get the ball to travel fast on your serve you need to contact the ball quite flat.  Get the ball to bounce really close to you on your side of the table.  Next think about getting the ball to go as low as possible over the net without touching the net.  Finally think about getting the ball to land as close to the end line on your opponent's side as you can.

If you can get these elements into your serve you will start to be able to get a good fast serve.

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.
