Sidebackspin serve

Serving

John Philip Asked 11 years ago

Hi Alois, how to do the sidebackspin serve and can i stand a littleaway from the table (like 30 cm or something like that)when serving.

Alois Rosario Answered 11 years ago

Hi John,

It is best to stand close to the table when you are serving. If you stand a little further back you will give your opponent more time to see what spin is on the ball.

If you think of the ball as a clock face, to get the side and back spin you need to hit the ball at about 5 or 7.

We go through this in detail in our Serving Secrets lessons.
