hi FYB i have a question, my kick serves have no power and when i try to hit them a bit flatter they go out, is their anyway to get them to be powerful and say in the service box.

[FYB2007]

Hi mart. The key to a speedier kick serve is swinging through the ball while still maintaining the correct swing direction. One thing you can try is tossing the ball further into the court so that you have to "chase" it a little bit. You'll have to move into the court to get under the ball and that will get your body's momentum into the shot. A more advanced tactic is to slightly alter your swing path so you hit through the ball more. Sampras was great at this.

I notice that in your practice, it looks like you are brushing up against the ball and snapping your wrist at the same time. 2nd question sometimes when I do the kick serve, I'm not trying 2 hit hard but my shoulders have a pitching senation, and it seems like i'm fully extending as well. What could it be that i'm doing wrong for me to feel a slight discomfort. Also when I do the drill in the serve progression 1. My wrist hurts when i hold the raquet near the raquet throat. I'm i doing it wrong?

Hey Will,I been following you for a month or so and I have enjoyed every video that you have created. From the forehand to the kick serve and the analysis of the wimbledon final which happened EXACTLY how you said it would for Novak to win. Well back to the topic on this video. My question to you is I was told that snaping your wrist adds power to your serve, so I was wondering when you hit a kick serve, does the snap of the wrist do anything for the serve? Or is it just a follow through motion?

kick serve is the same that twist serve???

[ArneG83]

i think the kickserve hitting position can be the same as the straitthrew serve. look at the last two pics and the pros... but great videos form him!

@iAnimeFANS you really think you can get it straight away. You just have to keep trying and use some of your own initiative. Patience mate!!

[joanes1963able]

keep up the good job...

@FYB2007 do u know what the prince of tennis is?

[7daniel49]

i have watched all your videos about the kick serve and when i try to hit the ball it seems to have topspin, but also side spin. is this normal when trying to hit from 8 to 2? and i cant quite get enough speed on the ball.
