Height for Pendulum serves

Serving

Tri Vu Asked 7 years ago

Hi,

Can a person who is 140-150cm tall, enough to do a pendulum on a normal size table?

Hi Tri,

It may be difficult. The important thing is to be able to get your elbow up high enough so that the bat is above the playing surface. If you can do that then the Pendulum serve can be done relatively easily.

If not then the Tomahawk serve is a good option.
