Which serve should i use

Serving

Edvin Ma Asked 9 years ago

I usually use side spin but should i use other serves?? Should i use variation of serves??

Hi Edvin,

Using variation is a key to good serving.

Any serve, no matter how good is only effective till your opponent gets used to it and adjusts their return.

Use a few different serves and also use a variety of spins on the serves and you will have a good range to work with.

Sir which serve makes the opponent to hit the ball higher and helps us to attack more easily

Alois Rosario from PingSkills Posted 9 years ago
It is about variation. If you save a topspin serve the ball will tend to go higher if your opponent doesn't read the spin on the serve.
