Hi Alois and Jeff,

How to do the pendulum topspin serve, because I can't get the topspin by brushing the ball on the top of it.

Thanks a lot!
Regards, Archel

Hi Archel,

This is the hardest of the Pendulum serves to get the idea of.

You need to brush up the back of the ball to get it rotating forward.  You do this by hitting the ball in the later part of the pendulum movement as the bat is going up.

For more on this take a look at what is available through our Serving Secrets course.  We show you in detail the serve and how to put the different spins on the ball.  All Premium members can access this now.
