Hi Mark,
It sounds like your opponent is changing between putting topspin and backspin on the serve as well as the sidespin.
It is a matter of watching the serve really carefully to see if they are coming up or down on the contact so which spin they are generating.
Take a look through our lesson on our Receiving Secrets course or you can purchase the DVD through our Store as well.
