How do you do a forehand topspin serve
Alois Rosario Answered 12 years ago
Hi Carter,
To get topspin you need to brush either over the top of the ball or up the back of the ball. IF you do a simple topspin serve it is easy for your opponent to attack it. So you need to find some disguise with it as well.
We have a lot of information in our lessons on Serving Secrets if you need more help with it.

The Kicker Serve
The kicker serve is one of our "must learn" serves. It's fast, fun, and has lots of topspin. It can be dangerous because if it's not fast enough and if you don't surprise your opponent then they may be able to attack it forcefully putting you on the defensive straight away. Used well though, and sparingly, it can be a great weapon. It can win you a point outright and it will stop your opponent from standing over the table waiting for your short serves since they need to be ready for anything.
