    This was a fun video! Good mix of random stupid crap with really solid information. Loved the very last thing one bounce-split. No one practices getting ready for the next ball when doing "serve" practice! Maybe I should start doing this? I have a big serve for my level, but often get beat by a weak return I am not ready for. Good stuff.

    This video was excellent. 2 years ago I sucked at serves (started with tennis), I checked a lot of how to videos but the way you explained the leg drive is spot on. It's funny for the last six month I have been practising the serve on the recreational tennis club. I'm the only guy who goes there on my own to practice. I love to do it because I see myself improving, but still need the good confidence for my first serve in matches. Funny thing, heard a woman behind my back say : ''Isn't he weird? He practices his serves on his own''. I thought, yes to beat personalities like you with a smile.

      He said you have to relax and not try to muscle the ball. That would infer a relaxed arm; not enough time to mention everything in one video. That's why he does separate videos on different elements of a stroke.

    The utilization of the leg muscles in serve mechanics increases tennis racquet momentum. Unfortunately the largest momentum transfer to the body occurred long before the racquet and ball contact. It is worth noting that the upper body stretching phase during the service lift-off phase contributes greatly to racquet momentum and balance. A stretched muscle and muscle group prior to contraction results in a stronger contraction.

    Roger has pretty good hops, but the feet get so high off the ground because of the trunk bend. It would interesting to see how much his c.g. goes up compared to his feet. Wawrinka on the other hand has limited trunk bend. BTW, looks like you are at about 105 mph plus or minus a few mph based on where the ball hits the fence. You really can’t hit the Battistone serve without a double handle racquet.😉

    I enjoyed the video. Just wanted to ask is the racquet arm being pulled by the unwinding of the hips. In that you do not move the arm independently but it moves as a result of the unwinding motion.

    • @RacquetFlex
      @RacquetFlex  3 года назад

      Great question rharrell1! Most of the force of your racquet drop should come from your hip and torso accelerating. However, the independent movement from your shoulder driving upward and forward is helpful in positioning your arm at contact. I recommend focusing on "pulling your hitting elbow up" to create both this independent movement from your arm + acceleration from your trunk. I hope that helps! - Daytri & RacquetFlex

      @RacquetFlex  3 года назад +1

      Great question, UD Racing! I recommend isolating the racquet drop when you're focusing on the coordination. Just start from the trophy position and working on timing your leg drive and racquet drop. If your hitting arm is in the right position as you load and unload your body, you should feel the flip happen naturally. Here's a recent video we released that may help you with the hitting arm action: ruclips.net/video/S10nJN2Y1og/видео.html

    Okay that 50% seems pretty suspect. I was pretty sure it was known that Roddick could hit 120s without his feet leaving the ground, and I've felt that in my own serve, too. I can blast them just using my upper body, and only add an extra 15-20% with the legs.

    • @RacquetFlex
      @RacquetFlex  3 года назад

      Hey Johnny, great observation! The legs and hips don't necessarily need to leave the ground in order to be used. More commonly, players miss out on the power of the lower body because of unnecessary movement, a lack of balance, or ability to rotate their hips.
