Serve -pronation and supination

Serving

Il Ill Asked 9 years ago

Master Rosario,

When profi players use more spin on the serve , they use pronation and supination with forearm?

Or only move with wrist?

Thank you in advance

Hi Il,

There is some movement through the forearm as well. However, if you focus on the wrist coming through you will find the forearm will also turn with the motion.

The Kicker Serve

The kicker serve is one of our "must learn" serves. It's fast, fun, and has lots of topspin. It can be dangerous because if it's not fast enough and if you don't surprise your opponent then they may be able to attack it forcefully putting you on the defensive straight away. Used well though, and sparingly, it can be a great weapon. It can win you a point outright and it will stop your opponent from standing over the table waiting for your short serves since they need to be ready for anything.
