Hi Alois!
How to hold the bat for the pendulum serve? I get my three finger away but I don't fell comfortable-I have the feeling the racket will fall off my hand. How to how it?

Hi Nasko,
You are on the right track. Just squeeze your thumb and forefinger a little tighter to get more comfortable. If you want you can put your next finger on the rubber as well a little for more support.
