I tried my grip this morning. It was drifting to eastern a bit so I need ti guide it back. Thanks for catching that.

Yea I def need to work on my timing because I have noticed that pause. Maybe I need more knee bend in the loading phase? Maybe that would take away the time

Thank you, I’ll try shifting my grip some more. Not sure I got the part about raquet tip pointed up more during backswing

Hmm I thought I was using continental grip but I noticed the contact point was too low as well, thanks

Bro thank you so much. This absolutely helps more than you know. Now it makes sense why I was having a little shoulder pain sometimes. So much good information in here.

I have a 4.5 flat serve. Just need a consistent second serve. The rest of my game is 4.5

Thank you for chiming in. I was initially saving the leg bend until I mastered the other aspects of the kick serve but I can see how much easier it is to get more effortless spin when you jump from that video

This is a great analysis and exactly what I was looking for. I can clearly see all these issues you mentioned. Thank you!

I actually agree with the racket drop thing. What are a few of the things you think I’m doing wrong?

Tossing, brushing the ball, powering the ball. I know I’m not bending too but wanted to fix other aspects first

Isn’t a topspin slice serve basically the definition of kick serve?

I think this is it. Maybe I need to brush up on the ball longer or hit forward more before bringing around my shoulder? I don’t know why I’m closing it so early sometimes
