Hi! I have problem with serving a good topspin serve. I can serve as Pär Gerell but i would like to do a pendulum topspin serve. I can only do the pendulum backspin and backspin/sidespin serve.

Hi Ellen,

As a Premium member you will be able to take a look at the Pendulum Serve tutorial where you will find how to do the Topspin serve.

The main thing is to hit the ball as the bat is on its way up.

No Spin Serve

It may sound like a bad idea but the no spin serve can be effective when put together with a range of spin serves. In fact, this is a must have in your arsenal of serves.

I can not do a pendulum pure backspin. Is it even possible? I think if you do pendulum, there is always some sidespin isn’t it?

That is right Marcin.  There will always  be some sidespin on a Pendulum serve.
