Serving with spin and over net
Serving

Hi coach,
How do you serve with spin without hitting the net.

Hi Jae,
When the ball is going into the net often the issue is your contact point.
Try to hit the ball from a little higher. This will get the ball to bounce higher and get over the net.

I must agree with Jae's comment.
Yesterday,I used a perfect reverse pendulum topspin serve.
It was very low,just milimetres above the net,and it had two bounces (the second was near the corner) and lots of topspin and sidespin.
I do not think I will perform that serve once more with such flawlessness as the one I am talking about very soon,but at least I managed it once.
And that happened thanks to PingSkills Team videos
