What type of serve is vladimir samsonov doing? He has a couple of serves, but this one is high toss serve in which he has a normal shakehand grip (not modified like in pendulum serve) and after tossing the ball high he lifts his bat high as well and then follows the ball to contact it when it is much more lower to the net.

Hi Dario,
It is a variation of the Pendulum serve. He just hits it lower and allows the ball to fall onto the bat.
