Hi Cristh,

This is difficult because if you put a lot of backspin it will float off the end.

Try to hit the serve quite flat and then get as much backspin as you can and still keep it on the table.  Make sure the first bounce is close to you on your side of the table.  The speed will also make it difficult for them to lift.
