john mason Asked 15 years ago

Hi,

i'm just curious about first serve..(competition)

is first fast topspin serve is possible? but i never saw pro player serve really fast or serve to corner.. they always do short serve and push .. all the time.

and i'm curious about butterfly tenergy 05 or 64 rubbers

i just searched but i couldn't see any control..

it was like speed:130 spin:115 density36..

i hope u answer my Qs..

thanks

Hi Mark,

The reason you don't see many pro players using the fast topspin serve is because it is too easy to return.  The table isn't big enough to be able to place the ball fast enough to trouble your opponent.

Work on the short serves if you want to get to a high level.

Tenergy 05 is an excellent rubber with good control.
