Hi Willy,

The best serve is one that your opponent finds difficult.

But, in general you need to start to work with spin on your serves.  The other vital factor then is the placement.  Firstly work on developing the amount of spin you can generate, then work on controlling it onto the table.

To generate spin you need to brush the ball on contact and then work on brushing it as fast as you can to make the ball spin around.

Take a look at our Serving Secrets Revealed DVD.  This will help you with all of these questions and a lot more about your serving.

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.
