Hi Judah,
Yes players do have some distinctive serves. It is usually their swing. They often get a similar result with the contact.
Just look at the players and see which type of swing you like and see if you can imitate it.
Wang's flip at the end of his swing that he does sometimes is just a distraction to make it harder to see how he is contacting the ball. He doesn't often hit it at the end. If he did it would have the reverse spin curving from right to left.

The Float Serve
The float or no spin serve is an effective tool to have in your bag of serves. It adds good variation to your serves and can often set you up with an easy 3rd ball opportunity.
