Hi Alois,

Could you please tell me how to generate more spin when executing the pendulum serve?

Thanks Coach

Hi Kabeer,

The keys are a finer brushing contact and a faster action with your racket.  This comes from a faster whipping action with your wrist.

Take a look at our tutorials in the Serving and Receiving section for lots of help in this aspect of the game.
