Hi Omer,
Generating topspin can be tricky. The principle is that you need to brush up or forward on the ball.
If you think about a Pendulum serve with the Pendulum motion, if you stroke the ball later in the pendulum motion when the bat is on the way up, you will generate topspin.
We explain this in our Must Learn Serves section under each of the serves.
We also go through the basics in our tutorial on Learning To Spin.
