Hi,

Using the wrist will increase spin and speed on your strokes or serves.  It will however make the stroke more risky because it is an extra moving part.

I think when you are learning strokes it is best to do it without too much wrist.  As you become more advanced you can start to introduce the wrist into strokes.
