Serving
Hi Alois, I have a question, when I try to do the reverse pendulum serve, but, the problem is that I fail the ball a lot, and I don't know why if I'm doing it right! what is missing? thanks!
Hi Victor,
Firstly try moving your bat more forward. So when you are going to hit the ball, push your bat forward towards the net a bit more. Most players when they miss the ball doing this serve will be swinging and missing behind the ball.
As a guide, your bat should be pointing towards the far net post at the end of the service action. If you are still missing the ball get the bat to finish pointing more towards your opponents side of the table.
