Roger Federer: Serve Closeup

Rotational speed is the key to solid and efficient ball-striking. But it has to harmonise with all the other movements to give your swing a great sense of rhythm. Roger Federer is the perfect example.

You are just cracking me up with your jokes !! ...lovely red belt lol...but my wife just saw it and said, "NO !! that's an orange belt and it matches his shirt." Hmph...she's right ya know.

BTW...thx for these vids. I know they're a lot of effort to assemble. You are great

[mytennis4you]

Well, women are spot on in this area. We better don't veto ;-)

He said, "This swing motion camera at least revealed to you that he's playing with a lovely red belt," I believe.

[MeMiioOo]

american twist.

[coolermaster706]

It sounds a little bit like "Bruno" speaking, but what the hell?

@FairwayJack - this is bad video quality cuz the shirt he is wearing is red and the belt was red too. Only appears orange.

If you want to become a GREAT MATCH PLAYER go to my channel ( 2knowfun2 ) and watch two videos: World class tennis (part1/2) and (part2/2) . My two videos will teach you how to become a great match player... my two tennis videos have covered pretty much everything that is important in tennis...from "how to hit high quality groundstrokes" to "match play"... Everything important about tennis is compressed in my two tennis videos... Watch and become a Great match player

[FairwayJack]

[vaccinne]

During Roger's serve, he must bite his lips

[animaanimaanima]

[ravi48819]

What does he say at the end of the video?

0:52

"he's playing with a lovely left ???

[NonDairyYogurt]

[iamnam]

Actually, Roger is #1 when you wrote your msg and will be the #1 winner tennis have ever seen until... well your great grand kids learn how to spell T.E.N.N.I.S maybe

[GueorguiJoukov]

He's back in number one since the following Monday of his 2009 Wimbledon victory... And, if you carefully, I answered he's great to the point of making you better at the only sight of his motion.

[1080portal]

strong lower back

[GueorguiJoukov]

How great is Roger Federer? The only sight of his motion makes you better.

[americanhighway]

yes , if you notice he always uses belt. at least every time i see him on tv he's wearing it lol

[Kishnabe]

Wow looks like a greek god there the federer. Such devine yet dreadful look.

[whatever3222]

Is he wearing a belt? =p

[vincentbadminton]

kick serve?

[smithersandburns]

How about showing him actually hit the ball next time? That's kind of an important part to not have viewable.
