How should one return the tomahawk serve and the long pendulum serve?

Hi Vijay,

If the serves are long then you should topspin them, no matter what type of serve it is.

Watch the serve carefully to see what type of spin is on the ball.  We have a Course on Receiving Secrets which will also help you.
