Hi Jordan,

This is about the type of contact you make with the ball.  By brushing across the ball you get sidespin. So then if you brush across and down on an angle you will get sidespin and backspin.  If you go across and up you will get topspin.

Take a look at the video on Learning To Spin which covers this area as well.  I often find that thinking about the path of the ball that you are looking for will help you to get the contact right.

The Float Serve

The float or no spin serve is an effective tool to have in your bag of serves. It adds good variation to your serves and can often set you up with an easy 3rd ball opportunity.
