Hi Dima,
We do have a lesson on the Tomahawk serve in our Serving Secrets lessons.
The main things are to Get quite low with your body and elbow so that you can swing you bat over the top, almost like a Tennis serve. Have a full range of movement in the semi circle we talk about and then focus on brushing the ball on contact.
