Example of a horrible serve

Спорт

What up KZread tennis fam! Just wanted to post some progress on what used to be the most hated part of the game - serving. I recently started serving with a purpose and plan, and using the power of visualization and mental imagery it's starting to become a weapon of mine!
I wanted to share how I made this change so I wrote a blog about it. Check it out and let me know your thoughts!

    Just stumbled onto your channel. Nice work. Looks like you’re playing in the same club as the illustrious iRacer3. Have you hit with him yet?

    E P hey thanks yep good eye! We hit around some points a couple months back but I got some work to do to get up into that circle! Came very close to having to play him in the club tournament last week but just missed him, the guy I lost to got pounded by him I believe in the next match 🤪. Thanks for stopping by def check out some of the string reviews if you haven’t seen them yet, more are on the way!!

    Every serve was side spin. Not a single top spin serve was hit.

    Maybe it was wishful thinking, I’ll change the name to top slice then. Or better yet delete this horrible video 😹

    You are almost falling backwards while hitting the ball, you are even landing behind the baseline. Because of that you are not hitting a kick serve, but a slice serve. Also your hitting point is at the top in the air downwards, not upwards to brush the ball. After hitting your racket head has to go upwards a while, try to get it done with this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zaqjs5mIkrmsc6Q.html Apart of that your swinging path seems right, the very important part of pronation with your wrist to the right looks good, which adds a high amount of kick, if you are able to do it in the very moment of hitting the ball, not before not after. Hope I can help you an see a Federer kick server in a month on your channel ;)

    Thank you very much for the good feedback! I see what you mean. This video was close to a year ago and I'll have to do an update. I'm getting some top at least because the balls bounce all sorts of directions up and around the court so there's some action - but for sure ton of improvement to be had. Pulling down is an issue especially when I'm not loose and arming it. So much of if it, I feel, is just confidence in the swing path to be able to do a fully loose 100% racket head speed swing. If you don't, you'll try to arm it and guide it, and pull down. I'll try to get some updates and se where we stand, thanks again!!

    @@EvokeTennis my serve has some similar characteristics of yours and i think he is right the timing of the brush and pronation is everything to make it kick up rather that spin out but that spin out serve can be a weapon too just a little unorthodox

    and I agree with your comment above make more hitting vids, the string reviews are cool too, I ordered wilson sensation on the new 6.0 95 PS and was glad to see how much you enjoyed them!
