Long fast little backspin serve

Serving

Marcin Lonak Asked 10 years ago

Hi Pingskills,

Does a fast, long, little Backspin serve change because of the forward motion and two hits on the table into slight topspin?

Thanks,

Marcin

Hi Marcin,

After the first bounce the momentum of the ball will get the ball rotating forward slightly.
