Hi Coach,

Currently i only know the bh/fh backspin and counterhit serve. In which week of the membership would i get to know how to do pendulum or other serves?

Hi Shaji,

This is a good start with your serving.  Now you can try different variations of these by changing the contact on the ball.  Slight variations can give you different spins.

The Premium membership covers things like how to practice your serves and what sorts of strategies you can use with your serve but it doesn't cover how to do the Pendulum serve in detail as we cover that in our DVD Serving Secrets Revealed.

In the DVD we explain in detail the movements required to do this serve and also variations of the serve to get different types of spin.

Oh in that case i will get the dvd soon. Hope it helps like your other videos have. I wish i can also curve the ball on the table in the pendulum serve like Jeff has shown.

It will take practice but it will work.
