Hi coach,

I'm just starting to learn this kind of serve. My serves are un-spiny and inaccurate.

Do you tackle the ball with your racket flat or something? 

Thanks

Hi Aaron,

Yes to get the backspin, have you bat very flat parallel to the floor.  The important thing then is the brushing contact.  Do it away from a  table first to get the feel without the pressure of getting the ball on the table.
