Hello, after watching this video :

I'm wondering if it's a legal service or not. It's still pretty nice to do for critical points :p

Hi Jo,

Yes it is legal.  She is just hitting the ball with the backhand side of the rubber instead of the forehand.

Certainly is a good serve if you can get it as fast as she does.
