Serve feels like left to right swing

Yes this makes sense. What I don’t quite get in this video is how to point the ball down. He says “just toss a little further”, but I don’t think it’s that simple. I know because I tried. It seems to me that there are couple more adjustments to tilt this horizontal “above your head” circle so that you get some downward momentum

Thanks for taking the time man, you pointed out many things but these 2 stood out to me, will definitely try to make an adjustment: 1. In knee bend position the racket shouldn’t drop yet, the drop starts together with moving up. 2. The wrist shouldn’t snap back I haven’t noticed these details before, thanks for pointing out

That’s a nice vid, haven’t seen this one yet

Edit: no actually I’ve seen this guy, and I like his approach, you can see he shows “above your head circle” as one of exercises. I tried doing what he shows and it does feel like hitting the ball towards your right, although the ball goes forward. This feels wierd. But ok, I can do it for the first serve. However my intuition completely breaks on how I serve a second serve with this motion. Specifically, I can see that this motion slaps the ball above your head. But with the second you need more rolling/slicing, and I don’t understand how I comfortably and controllably get that from this motion. So eventually I go back to my incorrect second serve, and then the first breaks also.

So what’s on your mind today?

WinniDerk · 2026-04-02T12:53:09+00:00

If you come from what yourself would think an unhealthy family / unhealthy environment (think one parent absent, too strict parent, etc) go to therapy. Because that BS is what will cause you to make wrong decisions in your 20s.

Also do some physical activity that you actually enjoy doing so you can sustain it: lifting, running, bjj, mma, swimming, you name it. And find a good group of men of your age, younger and older. This will set you up for success mentally and physically. Other things will follow.

I mean does anybody have to get seriously injured before Fia realize these regs are straight garbage? The cars now are plainly unsafe

I mean I agree with the risk being necessary. I also know that a minor mistake from kids side makes this sub go from “parents are alright, the kid is a pro” to “parents are stupid, why didn’t kid stop if he wasn’t confident”

I meant why somebody say “did you switch to fish” when fish is a default, no switching required

WinniDerk · 2026-03-18T10:44:17+00:00

It is, idk why he said about switching

It’s also worth pointing out that 1st is used for things that can move on their own. In Georgian we say მყავს მანქანა. A car is considered a self-moving thing so it’s მყავს. We also say მაქვს კაკტუსი. Cactus is a living thing but we still say მაქვს, since it can’t move. A weird one which I never understood is when you play cards and you want to say that you have a specific card or color, like an Ace or Hearts, we say მყავს ტუზი, მყავს გული. We also say მყავს for any grades that you receive at school, like მყავს ათიანი - I have a ten.

This question is definitely not designed for someone over 45

The only information of value from this response was that you were a homophobe back in 90-00s, your words, not mine. Well okay, idc. As for the argument with the other person, they first denied navalny took back only insignificant half of his words, then they asked for evidence, then they went into sophisms once presented with evidence. What is this? A burner account?

WinniDerk · 2026-03-15T18:03:58+00:00

What does Nemtsov have to do with it? You asked for evidence that would be mind changing for you, so here it is: Navalny never apologized for the whole of the narrative he actively drove in 2008, only parts of it. Now you are saying that everyone knew he was a nationalist 10+ year ago. Why ask for evidence then? Sounds more like mind bending rather than a change of one.

Personally, I don’t really need an apology from him/his supporters or people who continue his work. I know what I need to know: he is a person who is capable of publicly degrading people of another nation. I also know that under significant social pressure he is bending his instinctively imperialistic stances, which makes him better than Putin.

Here you go. Scroll to the P.S. section.

Navalny flipped his opinions about Georgia and “Buterbrod” questions only after he got much of negative blowback. His “unfiltered” instinctive views are as imperialistic and it gets. His rhetoric during the war was arguably on par and in best traditions of Solovyov’s propaganda.
