How To Hit Faster Serves (Simple Tennis Tip)

I’ve had viewers ask for my PayPal and Venmo details so they could “tip” me for all the videos. Thank you so much to those who have asked. If you’d like to leave a “tip” it would mean the world to me and my family…

How To Hit Faster Serves (Simple Tennis Tip)
1. Toss to the right (if right handed)
2. Practice serving flat footed to keep your body sideways
3. Cross your arms when done serving
4. All of the ideas above are meant to help you rotate less while serving so you can accelerate your hitting arm faster when you serve

You got this!

I have been learning the tennis practice technic for many years, but your lessons and methods are the best

[davidlarcheveque]

hello Ryan I absolutely love your videos and your concepts

[jonathankonoi]

Hi Ryan, Thank for putting all the great teaching videos. These are really helpful. Can you please make some videos about the forehand slice/drop and backhand slice/drop shots and when to use those shots? Sam

That’s a great tip. I got it! Happy Xmas

[Luinedhel]

Gonna try it right away. Where can i send a video to you with my crappy serves?

[tad]

can you break down the step 2 (reach out toward opponent) and step 3 (ending with the X) a little more? i'm not exactly sure what you're talking about.

Great videos! In cold weather no less!

Hey Ryan! Your tips have been super helpful in improving my game. I have question, how do I improve the spin and speed on my kick second serve. I'm able to hit them in often, but the pace and spin doesn't always come out the way I want it. How do I improve on these two aspects?

Ryan, what happened to the video with Federer about how to toss the ball on your serve?

[gage-mobilegaming]

This might sound like a stupid question but what about hip rotation? Does that not have a significant effect in the serve?

Is your birthday 🥳 anytime soon? I hope Nick invites you to the warm confines of Florida! 😂

It's difficult to hit slice serve with this action

[paulpellico]

sorry...but you are wrong.
1 oclock is dead wrong if you intend on hitting with great kick.
it is impossible to get to the ball and still have your racquect correct if at 1.
it will be to open.
please.
this has a lot more to do with stance and type of serve.

Love the 2 minute clinics however that's the most awkward looking serve I've ever seen.

Instead of focusing on faster serves perhaps the video should show how to serve more effectively. Some factors could include spin, placement, and returner characteristics. For example, noticing if your opponent is aggressive or defensive on returns and if your opponent is better with backhands or forehands.

Serving faster takes lots of energy and is not worth it if you are reducing your first serve percentage by too much. Also, fast serves that are relatively flat and bounce straight into the returner's forehand side are easy for a good returner to hit for a winner.
