      I tried your kick serve tips today on the tennis court and they work! Only thing is they're not very powerful serves - is it just a case of hitting it harder? This I find difficult if I'm brushing the ball.

    @HH-yq4hy 3 ปีที่แล้ว +47

    Excellent instructions! Key points: sideway, toss 12 clock and not inward, swing diagonally. Thanks

    After watching hundreds of videos on kick serve with half baked info, I landed up her and this one just enlightened me and cleared all my doubts. This guy is a gem of a coach. Thanks for sharing all the minute nitty gritty which other instructors normally hide.

    @tommorton512 3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    I could not figure out why my kick serve was more like a slice. I used a ball with different colors and noticed how it was spinning. You explained it clearly. I find the hardest part is getting the correct contact with the arm going diag. and the racket getting the topspin. I was having my arm go with baseline and not getting any power. Practice time!

    I really like your explanation. Too many old instructions just makes no sense. We were taught to drop racket to scratch our back. But that makes my arm working harder and took longer for my racket to get to the ball.

    Hi Nikola from Greece! I am relatively new recreational player and i constanly seek for tennis information on the internet. Your videos are very helpful and way much more good and efficient from most other videos. Could you make something for the slice serve?
    Keep up the good work.
    Thanks.

  • @ic5761
    @ic5761 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Best kick serve instruction out there and I have seen many videos demonstrate this. None of the others address the bent or straight arm after contact as being straight like Federer or bent like Thiem. So when I was dong it straight arm, I thought all this time I was doing it wrong. I wanted to add a few more things, after I originally posted this yesterday. All of these other videos talk about having to throw the ball into the court, but this instructor makes a point that you might want to throw the ball over your head above the baseline instead of throwing it out in the court. He explains all that. That's another aspect of the kick serve that people get hung up on.

  • @johnwright2460

    Great video! You give a detailed explanation of how to hold the racquet, the stance, the toss, where to contact the ball and where to finish. I have not seen all of these components in one video before. Plus, you reassure the rec player how long it takes to learn and how difficult it is but yet give encouragement to stick with it as a long term goal.

  • @darrenpretli3051
    @darrenpretli3051 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great explanation. I have been trying and following some other instructions but have always been hitting it to thin with no power because I have been trying to swing across the base line. I was always getting it in with lots of spin but no pace at all! This swing path explanation is excellent.

  • @rds4629
    @rds4629 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Nice video. I am surprised you recommend flat serves before kick to beginners. Once I learned kick, it made me so relaxed so that even on days if my flat serve is off I can rely on the kick to stay in the game. If it's not a croatian secret, how is the leg thrust on the kick serve? In your legs video, you talk about how snapping/twisting the torso propels the feet off the ground, but most kick serves you stay more sideways... to my eyes, it seems like pros drive into the court w/ flat serves whereas w/ kick they get more air under their feet. Is it more leg usage in kick?

    I have to tell you: While trying to use your instructions, The first serves I got in were huge. They didn't really kick , but they were fast and usually resulted in a service winner. I am working on the diag swing and the path of the follow thru. You are the best.

    @gcs7817 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you .... I’ve been working on this for a while now with some success...
    Your tip to have the racquet pointed more to the left (as a righty) at contact means that the racquet speed has to be sufficient so that the ball has some spin. By exaggerating the leftward pointing, a good deal of spin can be achieved...

    Good breakdown of all the elements of the kick , I really like the difference between top players vs us recreational players, like the toss (inside the court for top level vs overhead for us. A lot of teaching pros have us mimic top pros but we don't have all the other elements necessary to make that shot.

    From slow motion video replay, it looks like my toss is still not quite 12, but perhaps @ 1. I think that is all I need to succeed with your instruction, because everything is as you've indicated. Thank you! (The kick serve, on the deuce side, is by far the most difficult serve I've practiced. However, I'm all in until it becomes routine!)

    That was a very informative lesson Nick. I have to develop a kick serve because I’m one of those people who taps the ball on my second serve and I also double fault way too much. I can’t tell you how many matches I lost because of double faults. At my age I now play mostly doubles ( men’s and mixed) and it’s embarrassing for me to give away points and matches because of double faults. Hopefully I’ll see some improvement watching and studying this video. Thanks for sharing this and all your videos.
