Hi Rishabh,

The shakehand grip can be modified for the pendulum serve.  You take your three fingers away from the handle and make them into a fist behind the handle.

This allows you to use your wrist exactly add you would for the penhold grip.  It is better to use this modified grip which allows you to move back to your normal shakehand grip quickly.  We show you this in detail in our lessons on Serving Secrets Revealed.
