Good content. In my teaching experience - 30 years back - the instruction "repeat 50 to 100 times" is what people tend to ignore 🙂.
When starting tennis without coach it took me about 6 weeks doing half an hour of such drills 2 to 3 times a week to go from a pancake serve to a correct serve that could be used reasonably stable in matches. Might go faster or take longer - just wanted to give some reference.

thankyou, excellent imformation and coaching

I have a somewhat useful kick and slice but will do these progressions a couple of times a week to reinforce proper mechanics and to help dial in some more consistency

[halbrody]

Excellent. I intend to try these. Here’s hoping as I haven’t had much success learning spin serves

For me this is one of the most important video you Nick did, mostly bc I need to be better on the serve. My flat serve is quite good, but the kick and slice serve should be better!

Thanks a lot for your work! 👌🙌👍❤

Lovely progressions❤
Thank you Nikola. Yeah, it is very hard to resist rotating into the contact😢. Toughest thing for me.

Great lesson Coach Nick! Thank you for posting this video my friend.

Thank you very much for the valuable video. I have an slight issue with my kick serve which all of them land on the service line. Fortunately I have a very good 2nd serve in percentage but I can't land my kick serves inside the box. All of them land on the service line. What am I doing wrong? If they were landing on the side service line then I'm happy but mine are landing on the far service line by the no man's land box. Thank you.

Vielen Dank für das super Video, selbst für mich als Coach sehr sehr wertvoll.!! Ich weiss du spricht sehr gut deutsch deshalb mein Kommentar auf deutsch..
Super gutes Video

Great video nick! Do you recommend doing both kick and slice in the same training session or separating them into their own sessions. I was curious if doing both in the same session would be too much wear on the body at the recommended volume of repetitions.

I think what was missed on slice was that the face of racquet is angled a bit. Some might think it’s parallel to baseline when rotating the shoulders

Also id like to know your thoughts on how Patrick M always says swing path on slice is towards the T with angled racquet. Perhaps you are doing a slice variation?

I'm struggling to serve using pronation...
When I try to use it, I throw the ball way over the service area.
Is there a video that shows "when" you need to start pronation? Or even some exercises to try to make it better?

[criktun]

Is that racket a PT57A? 16x19 could also just be a Head Radical
