Rules about the Heavy backspin serve

Rules

Deepak H.R Asked 12 years ago

Sir,

I wanted to know if the serve, the one you executed in the Ping Skills trick serve video (at 0:40), was a let,for:

2.09.01.05.01	after touching the receiver's court returns in the direction of the net;
2.09.01.05.02	comes to rest on the receiver's court;

thus says the ittf hand book.

Thanking you in anticipation

Hi Deepak,

This rule is only referring to players in a wheelchair. So for standing players it is perfectly OK to do this serve.

Left Handed Serve

We look at the difficulties faced by a left handed receiver facing a right handers serve and also a right handed receiver facing a left handers serve. What rules protect the receiver?

So why there is not any player doing it

Hi Yasir,

At the higher level, the ball travels too slowly and a good player will be able to step around and make a strong shot against it.
