Backhand or Reverse Tomahawk
Serving
Khen Santos Asked 9 years ago
Hello! I saw some of my friends doing a reverse or backspin tomahawk. It so cool and its hard for me to receive and to do it.
Can you please teach me how?

Hi Khen,
It is a cool serve to try and can be a difficult serve to return as well. You have the same preparation as for a Tomahawk serve but instead of hitting it with the forehand side of the racket you change the direction of your bat as you are coming forward. It is like you are taking a left hand turn with your bat as you come forward. This allows you to hit it with the back of the bat.
Here are some tutorials that will help. Some of them are Premium lessons that you can access even with a 1 month membership.

Variation of Speed
Varying the speed is different from varying the length. You can have a fast short serve and a slow short serve. You can also have a fast long serve and a slow long serve.
