Hi Tanakrit,

A float serve is a no spin serve.  To make it effectively you need to contact the ball flat.  Try to have a similar action to your backspin serve so that it makes it hard for your opponent to tell what spin is on the ball.  If the float serve is too obvious it is easy for your opponent to attack but it will be really effective if you can be deceptive with it.
