Different service
Serving
elvin tee Asked 13 years ago
Hi, coach. Here is my question. Can I serve different types of serve.
Examples:My backspin serve is high toss serve and reverse pendulum serve
Is it has different amount of spin? Is it better using one type of serve or more? Any suggestion for me, coach?
Thx!

Hi Elvin,
I think it is good to have 2 or 3 serves that you use most of the time. You don't need too many more than that. Then just work on getting these serves better.

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.
