Your videos have changed my tennis game forever, the 321 method for the serves made me go from the guy known to hit slow slices to all my friends scared of my 1st serve cuz I absolutely bomb it now. All thanks to you !
I greatly appreciate the time and efforts you dedicate into making this invaluable content. I believe my serve is the weakest point of my game. I try not to watch too many serving videos in a short period of time because I end up focusing on too much and perform even worse. I haven't watched a coaching video for serving in about a week, so this came out in the perfect time. I always identify myself with the issues that you point out in a lot of your videos that I've watched so far. The racket drop is a portion of the serve that I focus too much on. I find troubles getting the timing right and the toss feels impossible to get consistent and toss high without any rotation on the ball. With the help from yours and Patrick's videos and applying what y'all are preaching, hopefully I'll form some consistency to start trying out matches in a league soon.
This is great. Stuff no one else breaks down . I would love to see a video on what we should feel in our shoulder on the serve and the role of the shoulder in the serve
Namaste Nick, I have been playing tennis for a year. After, every class, and practice, I come and see your channel, the content seems like, you almost read my problems and post it. Thank you very much, year over year I am learning a lot from your video playlist. Thank you very much.
Thanks! The timing of the leg drive is also essential for a good and natural racket drop and imo the most important part. If the racket drops from the trophy position before you extend your legs, it’s biomechanically incorrect. I Always teach that: My tip for the students: Try to extend your legs first; this could help many players improve their serve for a correct raquet drop.
Great instruction, Nick. I just recently started trying to increase my racket drop, and will try your progression. It's so hard to change muscle memory, but you can do it if you stay with it. Thank you.
Great video, I have exactly this issue where I do a mild drop before the full rotation. Where as I should be remaining in Trophy a little longer. And because of this I lose some rotational momentum and speed. Thanks for the ideas, I will definitely work on this with club coach
I have perfect example of the serve you’re trying to fix 😂 I need to fix my racket drop problem!!! I think my main issue is shallow racket drop, but I may have the racket drop leak when I try to fix the shallow racket drop 😅😢
I have been trying to correct this for a year, its super tricky, similar tip by Jeff Selzenstein helped a little bit --> on purpose try to do leg drive to soon
I figured out, after finally videoing myself, that I had a massive racket drop that I fixed by having a continuous motion. I used to pause in a racket drop leak position. My serve is now unrecognisable and feels so much smoother
I believe my racket drop leak comes from an isolated movement (extension) of the wrist, as described in your other racket leak video from a few years back, which I saw recently. From that video, I've been working on trying to have a flexed wrist in the preparation, to counter the wrist movement that causes the leak. You don't mention the isolated wrist movement in this video, but are the progressions here relevant and useful for that issue also?
Oh btw on your thumbnail, I think you have the labels on the wrong photos, you have racket drop leak over the shallow racket drop photo, and Vice versa
Compartmentalize your serve

Role of the shoulders (should feel effortless with no pain)

I didn't realize it was the body moving that leads to the Raquet dropping further and away from the body. So helpful!

That video was dedicated to the rd leak. Same info, isolated movement has to be avoided!!

I did but I corrected it. Good looking out
