Tursunov Reverse Serve

[chingstahpowah123]

This is my main serve haha, too beastly, and sll i need to do for a flat is pronate my wrist a little, leftie's luck woo, and yes i cand do it consistantly, use an extreme western grip, that makes a huge difference

[ispaht]

Wow. That serve could possible be a big weapon if someone learns to do it consistently.

[pararesis]

@ispaht its not worth it because it messes up your normals serve... thats why no one teaches it, you have to use a forehand grip on the serve and pronate weird to get the spin. And once someone did learn to get it consistently, it would become easy to return because they would get used to the spin, just like a heavy slice or kick serve

@0.06

[GreatestCreation909]

lol, that was the ugliest thing I have ever seen since 'the gayest serve ever'

[chankom]

@GreatestCreation909 man do u know how difficult and how it surprised his opponent greatly?

[GreatestCreation909]

@chankom yeah, i tried it after i saw the video. I could never do it before and i still can't. Not enough side spin i guess. It won't change direction when i do it.

[locopolka]

-_- his partner ran away from the ball and left all the work to him....>_<

[TheFatKid128]

wait i dont get what happened, whats so funny?

[chinospot]

ill answer all the coments in one here yes its a womens shirt and theres no split step coz its a dead rubber and they were just mucking round

[thompsonalex]

This is my new favorite video. Love the laugh.

[MrKayPham]

@thompsonalex

yeah.. see the 2nd suggestion video on right "tursunov putting on Nadia's shirt"

[TennisPerson25]

Is tursonov wearing a womens shirt???

[mtlilr]

hahaha.....he's gorgeous :)

[mysteriekiller]

Haha look at tursunov's partner, no split steps or anything. bit of a retard.

[nipal1234]

hahahahah tursunov xD

[polipoli7]

damn nobody cares

[kundimaharaj]

LOL 0:35 to 0:36

[MrT1mbow]

I love the laugh at the end

[tmurp14]

This is the only serve I use. With enough power while keeping heaps of spin on it, it can be a very good unexpected serve. Most people dont bother with it as it it very uncommon, but I find the reverse serve to be fantastic If you can land it in :)

[yoimcrazy]

yu must not have a coach then.

[wind1357]

and i thought only noobs does that so it can be done

[AtobeTanhausser01]

lol i made this shot today when i was playin my friend! except it flew up over my right shoulder, moved only left about an inch then side kicked to my right when i was serving to the deuce court. it moved about 3 feet side curve but i dint use nadal's grip i used an eastern.

[icravedukkbokki]

how do u fucking do that?

[mysteriekiller]

Change the grip.

[Boomguy88]

what grip did he use

[mysteriekiller]

Could have been something like semi-western, something far from continental that makes you slice to the other side

[Boomguy88]

he should be doing that more on the ATP tour

[mysteriekiller]

Of course not, that's stupid. there is no way this serve will be as consistent, powerful and well angled as his normal serve.

[AznBoy585]

actually, it is consistant if you know how to execute the serve. I play jv, and i learned this serve couple days ago. you can use either grip: semi western or continental. i use continental w/this serve because it's easier that way, but you get more spin if you use the semi western.

[hajime2k]

@Boomguy88 Most like a semiwestern grip. I've been practicing this serve for months and a semiwestern grip is what I use to pull that off. I suppose you could use western as well, but semiwestern allows you to serve in a setup similar to hitting a flat serve to better disguise it.

[4thKyuubi]

@hajime2k I just started practicing this like 3 minutes ago, and your right! It is a semiwestern serve, lol

[Jaewon12345]

lol he laughed at the second return.

[cyoonit123]

"he switched grips half way through and then cut like a windshield wiper across the ball. i thought i invented that serve, but i guess not...x_x"

yea same x.x do you use a extreme western for it?(nadals grip)

[Jaewon12345]

lol I thought I invented this serve too T_T

It wouldve made the headlines...

[yoimcrazy]

Not really, sorry to break it to you. But I do think the correct name would be a lefty spin slice serve.

[rockerduff1231]

i tried this twice and hit my racquet against my left knee twice during a match (faulted both times) but I still won the match 7-5 4-6 6-1

[LLNagashi]

stupid that wassn't a twist serve, a twist would turn the other way when hit the ground that was slice down when the ball hit the ground, and is called a kick no one use the word twist for like never unless your watching prince of tennis too much

[rockerduff1231]

american twist = kick serve....

[shucky]

american twist = kick serve to the right

[breek1]

actually there is a difference because a twist tends to spin as a slice but the jumps to the other direction. a kick is a topspin serve with sidespin towards the servers rights for righties

[shucky]

Eh? A twist has some top and some side spin momentum. It is not a true slice. It is basically a kick serve but slightly tweaked by toss placement and hitting under and staying under instead of letting it go to the side on follow through as in the kick.

[Kaos099EX]

Wow you're pretty stupid, a kick serve you

hit the ball from 9 o clock to 12 o clock to get a topspin effect but since its bouncing in a diff direction it bounces either wide in the ad court or forward in the deuce court, a twist serve at first looks like a slice serve but is cut diagonally making it bounce outward / in that direction

[aznjock1oo5]

he switched grips half way through and then cut like a windshield wiper across the ball. i thought i invented that serve, but i guess not...x_x

[linsam000]

u guys are idiots. for right handed person, reverse serve slices to the left like a lefty slice. Its done by holding a semi western grip and carving it right to left.

[Dolcecinnamon]

wow

[blackgirltennis]

him laughing in the middle of the point was the funniest thing imo

[Aodaliyah]

Whao reverse serve. He used the backhand side to serve!

[tenniswh0re]

whoa using the backhand side to serve!? thats not a reverse serve lmao, its the first serve he did. where his follow through was going down the center of the court but the ball went wide to his right

[cammie0j]

It looked like he was performing a ballet jump.

[ankeerox]

hhahahahahahahahaha

[TessGray]

i don't get it?

[JMSadmirer]

The serve? Since he's a righty, the spin should go towards the midline (backhand side), but if you look at it it goes the opposite way. Thatäs the "reverse serve" for ya :)

[TessGray]

ooh okay! thanks =)

[linsam000]

i don't understand, u can change spin of serves to different directions like slice goes to the left while kick goes to the right.

[rockerduff1231]

its fucking hard to switch from constantly going to slice serve then to reverse...youre going from right to left instead of left to right

[FlSHRFun]

Eh-heh-heh-heh-heh-heh.
