Tennis Serve Backswing

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

The third step of the tennis serve is the backswing. The backswing is how you take the racket back during your service preparation. You're backswing needs to position your arm and the tennis racket in a way that allows you to swing forward correctly later in your service motion. The relationship between your arm and the tennis racket that allows you to do that is called the "L" position.

Yes there are a number of techniques. This video only focuses on the backswing so you shouldn't worry about some of the other stuff going on. The "down together up together" motion is pretty easy to learn so that's why we teach it.

Thanks for this. My serve is pretty terrible but I got some good tips here. I think my problem is that I don't really think about getting into the "L" position, at least not for long enough. Also I don't really do a racket drop, I just swing through after the racket reaches the back of my head. My serves have been weak, and I think that's why

you're full of shit.

I can answer that...my son was having trouble swinging up at the ball early because his tossing arm was making him swing up faster than necessary. then we watched Juan Monaco on TV and it solved the problem. so YES there are different tecniques you can use.
