Serving
Hi, happy new year.
My question is this
My favorite player is Seiya Kishikawa Japanese and I find their service very effective because the gesture is made to serve the reverse pendulum but does a pendulum with much sidespin.

I wonder how it's done and if possible make an instructional video explaining how it's done.
thanks
Hi Benjamin,
Yes it is a good service because he gets the contact close to the change in direction of his bat. The closer you can get the contact to the change in direction the harder it is to tell which direction you have hit it.
It is just a normal Pendulum serve and then as soon as he hits it he changes the action to go outwards like a Reverse Pendulum.
Happy New Year to you too.
