High toss serve

Serving

Jasper Low Asked 4 years ago

I was thinking that maybe jumping will help with tossing the ball higher. So are you allowed to jump when your serving?

Hi Jasper,

Yes you are allowed to jump but you shouldn't need to jump to get the ball higher. Just work at throwing the ball with your hand and forearm which will be a bit more accurate as well.

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.
