Spin on the serve
Serving
Yacine Chafra Asked 12 years ago
Dear Pingskills,
Are there any tricks that I could do to apply more spin on my serves?
I can do a thin fine contact, but I wish to expand on the ways to put more spin on serves.
Thanks a lot

Hi Yacine,
The main thing is the fine contact and then to get the contact faster. These two principles are behind getting more spin.
You can experiment with the different ways of hitting the ball, by brushing it in different ways.
We cover this in great detail in our DVD Serving Secrets Revealed. I hope this helps.

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.
