Hi Gary,
The pendulm serve has a few steps to follow.
Start with changing your grip by taking your 3 fingers off the handle, then stand side on with your left leg just touching the backhand corner of the table. Then get your playing arm elbow up at shoulder level and then use the forearm like a pendulum. Brush the ball on contact. You can see this in our Serving Secrets Revealed DVD which you can get through our website.
Take a look at our lesson on the Backhand Sidespin Flick. This will help you to learn it. It is a very difficult stroke to master. You will need to do a lot of work on it to get it right.
Good luck.
Question actions
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.
