Hi Sihmanuth,

To do this you need to put sidespin on the ball.  To get sidespin, you need to brush the ball either on the side with a fine brushing contact or you can also try to brush across the back of the ball.  This will also get the ball rotating sideways.

Once the ball hits their bat it will spin off sideways.

Give it a try and see if you can do it.

We also have a series of lessons on Serving Secrets which is available to our Premium members.  This shows you lots of things about serving with spin.

Variation of Placement

The exact same serve placed to a different spot on the table can be much more difficult for your opponent to return.
