Hi Alois & Jeff
How to serve different types of spin but with simlar action (opponent deceiving serves)
Alois Rosario Answered 11 years ago
Hi Kaim,
First it is important to learn how to serve with different spin. Then as you get comfortable with these, you can think about starting in the same position for each serve and vary it from there.
Then get the action as similar as possible for as long as possible through your swing until the contact.
See if you can get some video of yourself serving. This will help to see what your opponent is seeing as well.
