Pendulum Serve problem

Serving

Hello Alois,

Whenever I do a pendulum serve, I find my opponents returning easily and tough to return response. Eventually I feel like afraid of doing pendulum serve. I also find that I am not able to add as much spin as my other friends here in the serve.

Can you please help me to suggest what is the problem with me and what should I do to improve?

Thanks in advance!!!

Regards,

Ujjval

Hi Ujjval,

It sometimes takes a while to get the fell of the contact.  It is important to get the contact really fine and really fast.

Try to keep your wrist relaxed and let it whip through quickly on contact.

Keep practicing it and let me know how it goes.

Variation of Spin

Varying the spin on your serve makes it harder to return. You can vary the type of spin but possibly even more effective is varying the amount of spin.

Thanks for prompt reply. I think I am holding the racket too tight.
