As always great coaching Stokke
Would love that follow up vid on the crossing of the tossing arm!
“Tossing to your swing, not swinging to your toss”. #Gold
I'm a simple guy, I see new video from Stokke, I hit the Like button.
@@JYMGO what a life philosophy!
I was fortunate as a kid I loved baseball and tennis. Throwing a baseball definitely helps with a serve. The key is a loose grip and wrist. Serving is a lot like pitching. You need variation, a fast ball, curve, change up, and location. I feel like my second serve racquet snap is even faster than my first serve. Most players patty cake the second serve. Great tips!
Wow!!!What an awesome and brilliant video.Thank you so much.
My main Man Sam, I told everyone that fella should have been a Pitcher for my Pittsburgh Pirates, I always practice throwing and I practice baskets of serves a week. I try to serve with accuracy and not so much power but accuracy!
Thank you Johnathan for bringing Sam on he is an awesome person and I miss watching him play.
He was great to talk to!
Sam mentions weighted balls. Studies have shown that throwing weighted balls can increase shoulder dynamic external rotation range (more racquet drop). It is important to note that throwing weighted balls increases injury risk so one has to weigh the risks and the advantages.
Love it Stokke...at the beginning you mention up and out...plz clarify and define the Out portion...is it up and out to the right?...thanks
Just on that 45 degree angle is what I meant!
Thanks for the follow up on the interesting podcast with Querry. When you interview him again in 2025, perhaps you could ask him about the tightness of his grip. He has said that he holds his serve grip (e.g., ruclips.net/video/wlnL-d9fRqo/видео.html ) and forehand grip tight (10/10 at contact) . How does he create a whippy racquet with a tight grip?
Way to go Coach you got some wheels Coach! You are doing great for not training anymore!
I'm trying over here🤣
@@StokkeTennis your doing great Coach I am proud of you. If I can do it with two replaced hips and diabetes 2 anyone can do it. You just have to find something you have fun doing and make an exercise out of it! And eating isn’t an exercise, too bad because I would be world champ my dude! Haha it was nice to see Sammy again on your pod!
Yo where did the sock go?!
Querrey was such a natural that all he seemed to need were reps. I spent one year serving to target number of 10,000 serves, but I ended up locking in some really bad technical errors, which I am slowly unwinding. Drills like yours are helping with that. Thank you.
@@yutooober 10,000 hours of deliberate practice will get the job done!
@@StokkeTennis
That’s easy. 8 hours a day, every day for 3.5 years makes roughly 10,000 hours! Well, you have the easier option: 4 hours a day for 7 years.😀
@@watcher687 haha. You’ll have a great serve in no time 😂
Great tips! I struggle a lot with when to start the toss - is it when I’ve rocked backwards onto back foot, and start coming forward?
Will try to make a video on that!
Great video, thanks! Just one minor point, though: even though many players (Querrey, Fritz, etc.) say that they hit the ball at the peak of the toss, this is actually not the case. They may believe they do it, but when one looks at their serve in slow motion, the ball drops at least a foot, and possibly more, from the highest point of the toss. Here is one example: ruclips.net/video/Va8_qVRC7o0/видео.html
Correct...it usually drops 12-18 inches. Kyrgios serve probably dropped the least amount of anyone. It's the thought they have.
@@StokkeTennis Dolgopolov and Otte. Dolgopolov literally hit it at the peak, Otte hits it straight out of his hand without even tossing 😆
Individuals have differing biomechanical timing, and therefore the toss will be different heights
