Hi Jacques,

This is a matter of getting the stroke correct and then practice, practice and more practice.

At first you will find that there may not be as much spin because you are a little tight, worrying about the action.  As you get more comfortable with the action you can focus more on the contact and then more on the speed of contact.  This progression will eventually get you to generate more spin.

Remember that it is a slow process.  Keep working hard on it for 6 months at least.

Get a copy of Serving Secrets Revealed DVD.  This will also help.
