Hi Alois,

i watched your video about the service variations. Is there a way to deal with those serves? How do you read the spin?

Hi Nathan,

We have a series of lessons on reading spin and dealing with it in our Receiving Secrets lessons.

This is a critical area of the game and one that takes a lot of instruction.  However once yo understand the principles you will be able to learn how to deal with any types of spin.
