The Drive Serve (to the forehand)

[PREDATOR925]

fuck off all you naggers out there he is just trying to help you assholes. if you think you are better than them why are you not making your own vidoes

It demonstrates the basic mechanics, but it wasn't a very good serve. It looked like it was going to bounce out like quite a bit, which any person would gladly like to roll out.

[Miggs209]

Its funny how people think they can do so many things with a serve, but when they actually get on the court, they dont know ow to handle it. Yes, it wasn't a great serve nonetheless it was just a demonstrative serve for the beginners. I'd actually like to see smellyshit and helianimal actually jump on the court with him one day and actually try to compete. guarantee you guys wont even score a point.

what the instructor here is trying to do is show the mechanics of a drive serve and teach beginers, that serve is good enough to demostrate, duh!!

[croxx1]

I agree, watch the video response, thats a perfect drive.

[snikliw87]

I have to agree with most people here... The drive serve presented in this video was awful. The serve was just a good setup for the reciever. This could be because "Jose" was not low enough, and was nearly standing up through his swing.

[croxx1]

Agreed

[fitzgerald1337x]

depending on whether it came off of the back wall or side wall first determines whether or not that ball is a setup.. often the ball will hit the back wall first and shoot back down the side wall, wallpaper. that is definitely not a setup.

[JKadd1211]

Eh? That was a pretty good serve, but I would've hit the ball lower on the front wall to give my opponent less of a chance to make a kill shot off of the back wall.

But still a good serve none the less.

[smellychit]

lol that was even worse than the backhand one. i could do better than that blindfolded. it wasnt that fast either. i would have cut that thing off before the backwall and shot it right back down that line with another 50 mph on it.

[helianimal]

Like Smelly said.. This is a joke. He hit the ball upwards to the front wall. You can still have it bounce 2x's or come off the back wall but hit it flat. I'm no pro.. but I would have stepped up as soon as he made contact and rocket explode jam him right to the chest on the fly or splat the shit outta it off the back wall. Side out and of story!

[ClickThisUser]

@smellychit Well he is playing on the pro tour now, so I'm sure that he would return any of your shots with "another 50 mph" on them at least, not to mention a few feet lower.

[SHOE788]

No, this serve was very good. It will hit just short of the back wall and come off of it skimming the side wall. Very difficult to return.

[mhebble]

I agree with endogyn. Those serves are way too high coming across the short line and yes, would probably be backwall setups.

[tsukoyomi2021]

Because you've def. won some tournaments in your time right? You would def. be able to criticize that drive serve amirite?

[endogyn]

Sorry to disagree but I think those drive serves were very bad. Without a doubt during both serves the ball bounced very much in the backwall turning them in backwall setups. The ball drop is not good. Ball stroke in the descending path.
