Like this vid. I always use the old style serve motion when I get tired or leg hurt.

In 1961. The ILTF (International Lawn Tennis Federation) allowed servers to jump rather than require them to keep one foot on the ground. The ILTF was the sports governing body from 1913 to 1977.

@SlyGuyKy when was it deregulated that pros could jump on their serves? interesting...

Pancho Gonzalez Should have been included. Arguably one of the best serves ever.

Back in the old days, it was illegal to jump into a serve. Therefore, the use of the legs was not even an idea. Players had to stay grounded. Long before players learned about ground force and the power it generated. Even back then, players could still hit a mean ball. The Sampras serve is truly one of a kind...perfect...but only he could hit it. Impossible to teach exact Sampras Mechanics. God given ability is half the battle. He had loads of it.

It's amazing how as the years have progressed, the leaps in the serve have gotten higher off the ground.

GOAT at 1:45. Many second serve aces, most fluid motion, and lots of spin.
