Hi,Rosario.

When I serve point of the contact on the ball is exactly front of the body? Or not always?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Il,

The contact can be closer to your back hip.  This allows you to swing more fully with your wrist.

The Kicker Serve

The kicker serve is one of our "must learn" serves. It's fast, fun, and has lots of topspin. It can be dangerous because if it's not fast enough and if you don't surprise your opponent then they may be able to attack it forcefully putting you on the defensive straight away. Used well though, and sparingly, it can be a great weapon. It can win you a point outright and it will stop your opponent from standing over the table waiting for your short serves since they need to be ready for anything.
