Hi Alois & Jeff:
My pendulum serve doesn't spin a lot. What should I do to increase the spin of my pendulum serve?

Hi Alvin,
Focus on the contact with the ball. Make sure it is a brushing contact. If you get the action and the contact right you will start to get a lot of spin. For lots more help with serving you can go to the Serving Secrets lessons.
