Serving
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.
The pendulum serve is the most popular serve in all of Table Tennis. In this lesson we teach you the important principles and how to vary the serve between backspin, sidespin and topspin.
