Hi Alois and Jeff,

how do you do a Flat Fast Pendulum Serve on a shakehand? I always end up with He Zhi Wen's serve (topspin+sidespin). I've been trying it time and time, but it's still slow. 

Thanks!

Hi Cloud,

The key is the flat contact.  If you brush on contact the ball will curve.  Get the bat to come directly behind the ball at the tie of contact like you are doing a simple flat serve.

Think about getting the far edge of your bat to come through a bit faster and at the same time as the near edge.
