When I do my backspin serve, it's often very weak and my partners can flick it very easily. Teach me how to do a better backspin. This is Enzo from The Philippines.

Hi Enzo,

Try brushing the ball faster.  Don't worry during practice if the ball doesn't go on the table, just brush it as fast as you can.  This will generate more spin.  Then you can start to get it with more control so that it goes on the table consistently.
