Par Gerell serve with underspin

Breki Þórðarson Asked 13 years ago

Hi PingSkills

Im really having problems with doing the so called "Par Gerell" with underspin or downspin. Since i can only really do the topspin and sidespin type of spin on the serve, it's not as effective as it would be if i could do underspin because the serve is based on your opponent not knowing what type of spin there is on the ball.

Hi Breki,

For the underspin serve just tilt your bat backwards a little and do the same action.  It is like sliding under the ball.

Give it a try and see if you can get the spin on it.
