Forehand pendulum serve
Serving
Simon Boddy Asked 8 years ago
Nearly every time I try to do the forehand pendulum serve the ball goes into the net. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Simon,
Try hitting the ball down into the table closer to your end line. Also try hitting the ball fro a little higher. It will help if you keep the elbow up high when you are dong the serve so that your bat is higher on contact.
