Hi PingSkills team,

I want to ask you how to make a serve which one would look like a normal serve but it would be spinny.

Thank you.

Hi Tom,

If you want to perform a tricky serve, the key is variation. You need to mix up the amount of spin you put on the ball. For the a really spinny service you need to have a fast brushing contact. To put less spin on the ball you hit the ball a bit flatter. To confuse your opponent you try to make both these variations look as similar as possible.
