Serving

Nikolas Fantocone Asked 11 years ago

Hi! What is the best serve? Lots of backspin, slow and spinny, or a fast serve? In your opinion. (I am a righty)Thanks!!

Hi Nikolas,

There is no one best serve because it all depends on your opponent.

In general though it is better to be able to do a short backspin serve because it makes it more difficult for your opponent to attack.

The Kicker Serve

The kicker serve is one of our "must learn" serves. It's fast, fun, and has lots of topspin. It can be dangerous because if it's not fast enough and if you don't surprise your opponent then they may be able to attack it forcefully putting you on the defensive straight away. Used well though, and sparingly, it can be a great weapon. It can win you a point outright and it will stop your opponent from standing over the table waiting for your short serves since they need to be ready for anything.
