Hi Francisco,

I think you may be talking about his backhand serve.  He comes around the outside of the ball.  It is almost a reverse Tomahawk serve played from the left side of his body. 

If you can find a link and send it through we will be able to tell you.

Hi Francisco

That is like the Par Gerrell serve that we have discussed on this forum. What type of serve is Par Gerell doing?

Yes Francisco he uses his wrist to generate the spin.

Try to watch what he is doing. That is your best teacher.  He does use a bit of forearm as well.

Isn't it a reverse chop?

Sometimes he serves with backspin and sometimes with topspin.  It is a subtle difference by just coming a little more under or over the ball.  They all have some sidespin on them as well.

Now I understood. He does a sidespin-underspin combination. Or?
