One serve

Serving

Hi,

I am quite an advanced ping pong player and have won quite a few tournaments. But when I play I often lose points because of my dodgy, not very good, serve. I really want to have one serve that I can use and practice a lot to make really good?

I would prefer a spin serve over power.

Thanks,

Shaun

Hi Shaun,

A serve is an important part of the game and can win you a lot of points.  Probably the easiest serve is the Pendulum serve to start with.

We have a whole section on serving because we think it is important.  Most of the lessons are Premium but we think it is a worthwhile investment as it is such a critical part.

You can also search through previous Ask the Coach questions for Pendulum serve and you will get a lot of information from there.

Variation of Speed

Varying the speed is different from varying the length. You can have a fast short serve and a slow short serve. You can also have a fast long serve and a slow long serve.
