Float serve

Serving

Hazard z Asked 13 years ago

I am interested in float serve. Is it because of the massive backspin? Please teach me how to master that serve.

Thanks

Hi Khang,

The float serve is a no spin serve so it doesn't have much backspin at all.

To do the float serve you need to contact the ball quite flat so that you are not spinning it mich.

when you said flat, do you mean a vertical bat contact or horizontal?

Vertical, so that you can hit the back of the ball without spinning it.
