being short #2

Serving

Hey Alois,
You recently answered a question about the the pendulum serve which helped a lot. Now I was wondering if there are any other good serves for shorter people I could learn.

Hi Dan,

The Tomahawk serve is good if you are shorter. Many players when doing this bend their knees low to get into a low position to do it. If you are short, you are half way there.

The high toss serve looks spectacular and it gets results. It is particularly suited to the pendulum serve but we encourage you to try it out with all of your serves. Follow these instructions and add the high toss serve to your repertoire.

Alois, im 1,80

Am I a bit high to do the tomahawk? I use it as my main serve but, as you said, i have to bend my knees.

You aren't too tall to do it, it just takes a bit more effort to get down low.
