Serving

Just curious, which professional player's service do you like the most, and why?

My favourite is Michael Maze's. I just find his service action to be really smooth and they look cool! I can't vouch for their degree of spin compared to the other top players since I've never had the opportunity to play against the world's best players (for some reason, players like Ma Lin and Joo don't normally play division 4 in Canberra!)...but they seem quite effective from what I've seen on youtube.

Hi Ji-Soo.

Of course Waldner's serve is my favourite.  However I do also like Ryu Seung Min's serve because of the speed of the serve and his ability to still keep it short. 

If Ma Lin and Joo ever do play Division 4 in Canberra could you let me know, I might make a trip up there.
