  • Awesome drill, I especially like how it mentions how your shoulders and hitting arm should look on the finish. Not enough instruction on how to change a dirty diaper though.

  • Top spin serves are not easy... but fun once mastered..

  • Is it just me.. Or is the sound only coming out from my left speaker..

  • I got interested in tennis when I watched Prince of tennis

  • prince of tennis got me here

  • Great video.

    you must be pretty coordinated being able to hit a kick serve with both arms.

    I hope I can get this soon.

  • who cares about diapers????

  • shouldn't you spray the handle with some anti bacterial spray after this drill?

  • haha, looks like that makes no kick at all

  • Thanks, I will try this and post video for u to criticize.

  • TrippleLee....I never was a master at grammar. I will stick to tennis

  • @TennisCoachTV you're not a master of tennis either

  • @Veneratio10 Don't u dare insult my master.

  • Thanks, sarasmilepiano... this drill definitely works well.

  • "Irregardless"? Not a word, sorry.

  • @TrippleLee From the dictionary

    irregardless |ˌiriˈgärdlis|

    adjective & adverb informal

    regardless.

    ORIGIN early 20th cent.: probably a blend of irrespective and regardless .

    USAGE Irregardless, with its illogical negative prefix, is widely heard, perhaps arising under the influence of such perfectly correct forms as : irrespective.

  • @paradox963 Ok, so you got me. so it's in the dictionary, but it has the phrase "illogically negative".

  • @TrippleLee All of this doesn't matter. You're a cunt bucket.

  • Excellent drill- the best kick serve demo I've seen, along with demonstration. Holding the racket higher up and/ finishing on the same side of your body will definitely help you with more topspin.

  • Yes, but you wont be as sideways because the toss isnt as far over your head

    Coach Jeff Salzenstein

  • Hey coach, does the tip for staying sideways apply to the first serve also?

  • How to hit a Twist Serve (where the ball curves to the receiver's right in the air and then

    to the receiver's left on the bounce)?

  • Thanks Jeff, this is an awsome tip. Especially the one about the shoulders tilted. I was overlooking that really.

  • Holding the racquet higher on the grip helps student learn how to pronate the hand correctly. The butt of the racquet will hit your forearm if you are pronating your hand incorrectly. Make sure the palm of the hand is facing you at the end of this drill. Hope that helps!

  • @TennisCoachTV

    Does holding the racket higher up the grip make a difference ?

  • At first the elbow pivot goes in position ...then stops in the air and allow the forearm accelerates around .... near the contact the wrist snaps and so doing adds more acceleration and drives the raq. face trought the ball. Hope i have understood.

  • I seem the arm swings using a double pivot ...forearm around the elbow and hand around the wrist ...

  • Comment removed

  • Superb drill!!! You just can't get the ball over the net if you don't do everything well (as you pointed out you can't "cheat"). Thanks a lot!!!
