i must say that this is the only vid of all your vids that i think has thougt me anything
pretty good and it did help a bit, but lyk ppl say ur ball should b moved around that way you can have ball placement on the court wen u serve. a consistent serve is great but a controlled serve is even better!:)
showing an actual example of a serve wouldve helped a lot, just saying.
this guy is so good and dead on. I try never to hit the ball with a bad toss until I get the correct toss 2nd or 3nd time. A bad toss is an automatic double fault.
was that sound of a hemi-cuda engine
Oh! wait its his mouth
look at that belly =P
fantastic advide man, helped me alot to fix up my serve and get a few extra km’s out of it! thank you!!
I do the follow through thing a little bit too much lol, I’ve hit me knee so many times from serving haha…
f commercials will now mute n turn down the brightness till its over
That is not completely true about the throwing the ball thing. Even if you dont make contact with the ball, and you swing to hit the ball and miss completely it counts as a fault. Like, he was saying that as long as you dont make contact with the ball after the toss, you are good. However if you toss the ball, swing, and completely miss, it counts as a fault.
yes… you can also see many great videos on web site: fuzzy yellow balls.com
SO YOU NEED MORE PRACTICE! carefully watch this video again….
IF YOU PRACTICE THIS FOR ABOUT 3-4 Weeks , you will have A awesome serve!!! Please belive me, you will be suprised!
stop foot faulting man
your videos help me alot, thanks!
Wow great tips, theyv’e really helped improving my game.
The most important thing obviously its the toss, with a right toss you can execute your technique.Then you have to focus on your technical problems.One of the most improtant things its to point with the front shoulder to the direction of the point you wanna serve.Another common mistake its the timing of our right leg and shoulder goind through too early or too late.The throwing hand have to come to the chest to avoid a loose of balance and giving an overextension posibility to the executing arm.
Okay, i don’t know many pros who are over 50 years old… AND i don’t know anyone at the age 13 that have practised 13 years of his/her life…
I’m pretty sure everyone’s serve is unique and hard to help with from afar but I had terrible problems with my serve too. I’ve made some decent improvements by rocking from my back foot onto front foot through the swing. So weight on front foot pre toss, then onto backfoot as you toss it up and back onto front foot as you swing through. Its fairly simple but if your like me, I had a fairly static serve in that I didnt move much as I swung through.The rocking motion helped me, hope it does you
yea the true pros have like 50 years of playing instead of just 13
boo
this has not help me it made me lost my copetetion
13 years competetive playing? I bet he never got past qualifying in his life! Makes me laugh when these people call themselves tennis pro’s, lmao!
‘you can toss the ball as many time as you want’ – lol
its a nice vid but for some reason i still cant serve in tennis , its the one thing that lets me down , i can do everything else but serving is a complete nightmare
