Hi Mahmoud,

Try hitting the ball from a lower height. Perhaps you are not allowing it to drop enough after you throw it up. To get more spin, contact the ball a bit flatter.

To practice serving lower take aloof at our lesson on Keeping The Ball Low. This will help you to focus on the height of your serving.

The serve is basically a Pendulum serve. We have lots of other tips on the Pendulum serve in our Serving Secrets course as part of our Premium Membership.

Backhand Tomahawk Serve

In this lesson we show you how to execute the Backhand Tomahawk serve. This is a good complement to the Tomahawk serve. By utilising a similar action, it will make it difficult for your opponent to tell which way the ball and spin are going.

but actually backspin service always comes low if there is a high toss.
