Hi,
For the Pendulum serve hit the ball a little later in the swing when the bat is starting to go upwards. This will mean that you will brush the ball with topspin. The closer you can get the contact to the end of the downswing and the start of the upswing the harder it will be for your opponent to tell what type of spin you are putting on the ball.

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.
