Hi Janz,

To get more backspin you need to brush the ball right at the bottom with a fine contact to get the ball spinning around.

We have a good explanation on this in our Serving Secrets lessons.

To get a good explanation of Kentas serve try typing in 'Kenta' to the search box at the top of the Ask the Coach page.  You will see quite a bit of discussion on this topic.  It is a very popular serve.

Forehand Counterhit

The forehand counterhit or forehand drive is the foundation for more attacking strokes such as the forehand topspin or forehand loop. There are 3 critical factors:

  1. Your feet position
  2. Your start position
  3. Your finish position

If you concentrate on these 3 factors then your stroke will become extremely consistent. Once you can reliably hit 100 balls in a row then you are ready for more attacking strokes. If you can hit 1,000 balls on in a row then you know you've truly mastered the stroke.
