the forehand one
The Pendulum serve is my favourite. To do this start by being side on to the table. If you are right handed, touch your left leg to the backhand corner of the table. Then have your elbow up at shoulder height and use your forearm in a Pendulum motion. Get a good brushing contact on the ball and whip your forearm and wrist through. This should get you a good start to learning the serve. The next step would be to gain access to the Premium lessons so that you can watch the lessons on Serving Secrets which will give you a greater insight into the serve.
