What is great about this clip is landing landing in follow through on the back foot.

It makes it easy to continue to all directions. All amateurs and pros alike waste much energy by having to readjust their position and balance after landing on front foot and are begging for injuries.

Landing on front foot means they force and transfer the loaded back leg onto the front leg too much, so the front foot becomes dominant in the rising forward and back foot therefore trailing and to remain in balance, in need to kick out backwards, like sitting on a turning bar seat. If one transfers the load to the front foot/leg, it gets stuck in the way, thus forcing it to unload, to make room for the release action.

This flaw has become cultivated as if the proper way though. And if it is not corrected by experts, a wrong habit has grown out to be the best practice, as Thomas Kuhn explains in The Structure of Scientific Revolutions.

An analogy: look at Scheffler and Chi-Chi Rodriguez in the golf swing. They kind of walk through in the follow through. During the release zone, their weight is thrown into and through the impact zone.
Whereas many other great players, have their left foot heel rise, much like in the tennis serve, as they unload the back leg too early, so the front leg gets stuck in the way, unless the heel comes off the ground.

Ideally one walks through the shot. The same is the case with throwing a football in American Football (rugby it is not allowed). Also the pitcher in baseball, will hardly land on the front leg after the throw.

I hope the day comes that anyone serving with landing front leg in follow through, is blown off the court by anyone pro that has mastered to serve the other way, and those who still want to be competitive, are forced to adopt the walk through technique
