So I was wondering about Wang Hao's serve in several ways. First of all I was wondering what kind of serve is it? It seems like a pendulum serve but I'm not sure. He doesn't seem to go from the right to left but more from back to front. I was also wondering how effective this is. And lastly I was wondering how well this serve will work on the shakehand grip. The serve I am referring to is in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp8Ya8hauZo

Hi Dhruv,

This is more like the Punch serve.  Take a look at this previous question we have had about this type of serve.

What type of serve is Par Gerell doing?

Thanks Alois, but the Par Gerrell serve again seems to go from behind his body forward, as if from left to right but wang hao doesn't seem to move his serve horizontally

You are right, it is not as big an action as Par Gerell but the same idea and similar spin.
