Just a follow up on my previous question, how do i make the ball land on the right side of the table? cause i wanted to make a serve that lands on the line of the side of the table and jumps out of the table after it bounced of the table. Please help me. Thanks.

Hi Gian,

To do this you need to change the direction of your serve by simply using your wrist.  A small change in the wrist angle will change the direction the ball is going.  Open the wrist a little more to get the ball to go cross court and close it a little to get it to go down the line.
