Long fast serve with high backspin

I don't have much variation of serve, I want to learn a long serve with high backspin because I have plenty of short backspin serves but not a single long one.

Hi Sohan,
The key is to get the ball to bounce close to you on your side of the table. Hit the ball quite flat with a little bit of backspin. The combination of speed and flatness will make it feel like a lot of backspin to your opponent. It is difficult to generate a lot of backspin because the ball will tend to float off the end of the table with too much backspin and speed.
We have made a previous Ask the Coach video response for our Premium members. Long, fast serve with lot of back spin.

Variation of Placement
The exact same serve placed to a different spot on the table can be much more difficult for your opponent to return.
