Hi Oguz,

Straight after you play the Pendulum serve change your grip back to the normal grip to play the rest of the rally.  If you are doing it right, all you have to do is put your three fingers around the handle again.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
