Serving
I am a begginer at table tennis and I am looking for great ways to spin your serve, I have watched many of your videos to try and answer this question but which serve is ideal with spin that isn't a topspin serve? And could you make a video guide about all types of serve techniques?

I think the best spin to start with is backspin. This allows you to feel the contact that you need and is also effective if you develop it.
