Andrew Peterson Asked 13 years ago
Hi,
Where is the best place to put your Reverse Pendulum serve on the oponents side of the table?
Short to the forehand?
Long Backhand?
Thanks

Hi Andrew,
The simple answer is wherever the particular opponent you are playing doesn't like it. This may sometimes take a little while to discover but in the first part of the match try to serve it to different places and see which the don't like.
This will vary for each opponent so play around with it and see what works.
During training practice serving it to all different positions so that you are able to vary the positioning of the serve.
