Tennis Kick Serve Progressions: Step 1: Swing and Pronate

http://www.fuzzyyellowballs.com/improve-your-forehand-in-45-minutes/

The first step of the tennis kick serve progressions is to learn how to swing and pronate correctly. In the kick serve fundamentals section of the website, we said that you have to swing up and across the tennis ball. We go into more detail about this point. Also, we demonstrate how to shadow the motion and, later, how to practice hitting the tennis ball.

hey will I have a quick question, I got the kicker down and all but I still haven't learned how to hit through it a little more while still having the kick. Compared to my other serves, I tend to swing slower for some reason on this one. Any tips to speed up my racquet speed?

[FYB2007]

well one thing you can do is play from the service line like i do in this video. swing as hard as you can but try and get the ball in w/maximum spin (so you're brushing the ball a lot). that will help you develop the correct swing direction. again, work up to full speed -- don't try it immediately.

do you actually hold your racket like that when you serve?? That high up??

[FYB2007]

no i'm choking up because it's easier to learn like that.

to get it clear, pronation is a wrist flick?

[FYB2007]

No, pronation is the forearm and wrist moving as one piece.  We have a video that explains exactly what it is... if you search for tennis pronation it should come up.

I am having such a hard time hitting from the left to the right side of the ball. It seems uncomfortable for me. Any tips to make it easier? Thank you in advance.

[anamariajotis]

i have a question, as the first serve as the second serve have the same grip or the grip change in the serves

[Superlative101]

I was wondering if you've ever played anyone on the ATP tour???

Will I'm so pleased your'e a lefty! I was right handed playing but due to injury switched to lefty... after a year and a bit I'm managing maybe 100+ mph serves... just... hitting the court cage with fairly flat serves at around two or three feet. Overall though... you being lefty is just really helpful for me LOL! Thanks for thinking of the righties too though! :O)

P.S. sometimes I still hit a righty forehand if I can't reach with the double handed backhand... but am switching to single.

Kick serve is great for getting ball high over net, cuts down on errors. Lots of opponents have difficulty handling the high bounce too. A great weapon!

[canvet91]

toooooooooooooooo much details, but thanks anyway

FYI, if you're using Final Cut or pretty much any decent software program, you can flip 90 degrees and the picture will be in the POV of a right hander. It's just makes it easier to visualize at around the 2:40 mark.

are you using a donnay racquet? aren't those discontinued?
