Tennis- Return of Serve Technique

[xtiminater]

What if your opponent serves and volleys? It's unnerving to look up see someone immediately at the net. You know you're in trouble if you don't thread the needle down the line or sharp accross court, or if your return is just a little too high over the net.

0:10 clones???

[Waveroxful]

Yea lol ;/ Retard!

[Killawolf95]

Top spin serve and kick serve same thing?

[jaimepo8]

@Killawolf95 Yes they are

[Killawolf95]

@jaimepo8 Okay I was wondering never heard of Top spin serve at my serve practices only kick so I was slightly confused on that. Thanks.

[SuperDrownedFish]

@Killawolf95 NO theyre different! topspin only has topspin but kick has a bit of side spin as well as topspin.

dude with the single handed back hand is fucking sick, i chose the single handed backhand over the double handed not because it felt natural, but because i thought it looked a lot more cooler and sexier, lol, and now i have fucking amazing backhand

[chingstahpowah123]

Hey intosport!!! I think u guys need to show the viewers my fave serve, the reverse serve or reverse twist serve....THUMBS TO GET THIS NOTICED BY THEM SO U CAN LEARN THIS SERVE

[petechett]

Imagine trying to return Andy Roddicks serve. :s

[broady135]

people who do two handed forehands are fags

[KurogetsuOokami]

@broady135 That only means they're being careful and controlling their pace. Or they may be beginners. Some people unwillingly add spin and hits balls out.

[181erob]

@broady135 People who troll are fags.

[broady135]

@181erob wtf i was just stating that only gay people do two handed forehands. Its a well known fact

[181erob]

@broady135 I actually thought that you said people who do two - handed backhands are fags... I misread.

[ThePacemaker45]

@181erob oh shit, made the exact same mistake, was about to abuse the shit out of him unitl i saw your comment

[byen8]

@ThePacemaker45 Any reason for the bad language? How about oops, I was about to be critical and then thankfully I noticed your comment ?

[dudekashif]

love the way the videos are made.... but hate to say that the techniques never helped me.

[aznboi1398]

Return down the line, helps alot

[Scorpio7500]

they don't discuss blocking/slicing the ball back.

[gabaynoy487y37]

its good nice one



[nganitup]

@YyJoBb height doesn't really matter, i'm short and i play just fine, if you think height is everything in tennis you're very wrong, there are many ways to get over the obstacle of being short in tennis

[MrCeleb0071]

Some how you guys are not even close to FYB by Will... He is much better in explaining and also best in demo than you people...

[nikk6785]

my practice buddy hits his first serve at like 120-130 mph, no joke lol.. i just accept the ace when he gets those in.... i won't deny that at all considering he dominates most college players

[nganitup]

@nikk6785 or you can just block it back lol, stick out your racquet with a firm grip and just let the ball trampoline back

[Ericman2043]

@nikk6785 lol, i would just walk out of the court

[Cryssiann]

Wow this really helped me, thank you for posting this vid

[hattrickster33]

I always move a few feet behind the baseline when returning a first serve because it gives you a lot more time to prepare and you can hit harder without over hitting while putting more spin on the ball. If the first serve is weak then you can always move in; better to be a bit farther back than to be too close and hitting the ball up in the air or into the net.

[The2911nestea]

@hattrickster33

right... i do that too. it really gives you time to at least choose the right angle and grip to hit the ball. especially when the server is a hard hitter. :)

[hattrickster33]

@The2911nestea yep, but then they do an underhand serve just to piss you off lol

[tennisboycallum]

@queenofcourt thanks, and yuu x

[tennisboycallum]

@queenofcourt i have some tips and drills what can help you or anyone with this, i can't post it on here as there are too many characters if anyone would want me to make a video please say but if not add me as a friend and i will send you the drills and tips from there :)

[InvaderOGir]

I wish the videos would have more arrows on placement. That would help a lot.

[jflaksdfh]

these vids are great! i like that there's a narrator...not just the players talking

[HollowAgito]

I'd have to disagree, the brown haired girl has something special in her.

[FairwayJack]

These vids are really good stuff !!

[2muchdeano]

you find the ball with your hands and not your knees or feet.

[millionairejh]

everyone says keep ur knees bent for balance, but i rarely see it, especially on a service return. even the example in this vid, the guy did a one handed backhand, and straightened his knee as he hit. i kno its hard to keep it bent cuz naturally u wanna straighten it out, especially against a fast serve, or if the ball is really high.

[Wengsta158]

@millionairejh

Thing is, bending your knees is not dramatic. It is only a bit.

second, you're supposed to straighten your knees during the shot. That is what makes topspin

[plstrom]

the dark hair girl could have a chance in the top level if she really tryed and trained hard for it...
