Omg, I've been "throwing" the ball all this time, and making a fool of myself by having the ball go way in front, behind, to the left, or to the right. "Placing the ball made so much of a difference! Thank you!!
Excellent video. I just watched this video 3 times in a row with a racquet and ball in my hand, miming the movements. The ball toss explanations in this video and in the Federer serve analysis are mind blowing. The explanations on the importance of the knee bend, building momentum, dropping the shoulder, supination and pronation are the best I have ever come across. It’s all making sense now after so many years. Thank you Simon.
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficialI’m very late but if you haven’t made it already I would like to learn how to hit shots well under pressure (like whilst running) and strategy.
What a great breakdown of the serve! I've recently started playing again after about 25 years without playing consistently and have been struggling with consistency in my serve. I was able to take this video and watch some video of my own serve frame-by-frame and see some things I need to improve on, and also see some things I'm doing well. Thank you for such a thorough and understandable breakdown of the hardest thing in tennis to master.
Your guid line for serve is excellent to understand and excute. Especially your instruction is simple and essentially perfect. Thank you for your tallent.
Just watched this video after having “lost” my serve. Thanks so much for the structured approach; in particular, the ball toss has been a real problem for me as I thought higher was better. Your advice makes so much sense - I’ll try it out tonight.
I find your explanations and demonstrations a great help. I have been out of the game for three years due to injury and am now getting back into playing again. Thankfully, by following your advice, I am learning how to serve much more efficiently than I did before. (Maybe I should ask my old tennis coach to watch your videos, as he never taught me the specific mechanisms to the serve.) What I could do with a coach like you man.
I have just gotten back into tennis after not playing for 10+ years. I have watched this video 4 times atleast while I have been at the courts. Truly helped man! fantastic teacher!
Excellent breakdown, Simon. I need to work on my toss: inconsistent location and it’s probably too high. I think both factors are contributing to me falling sideways rather than forward into the court. I tried the”J” toss but I think it just adds one more factor to an already complex motion. Next up, better knee bend. At 67 I have a lot strength, speed and endurance (years of squats, lunges, deadlifts, Tabata, etc.) Never too old to improve. Sorry for long winded comment. Cheers.
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial I am checking your channel right now to see if you have a video on serve placement. If not, that would be very helpful. Many thanks, Lanier
Simon, your videos are absolutely precious and | am so happy to find your channel! I have sifted so many tutorials and your way of giving rationale behind movements/shots/etc is the best! Thank you for your effort!
At 51 I've decided to start tennis again after a near 30yr break (which meant junking my gorgeous Head Radial Twaron's!) and I've never even heard or thought to look for supination - pronation during the swing. Will be giving this a go. Many thanks and subscribed.... *thumbsup*
@@TopTennisTrainingOfficial It's a good question. Probably one on shot selection, but I'll have to have a look back through your catalogue to see if you've already covered it...
Simon & Alex -- I've watched this video many times because my serve is the part of my game that presents me with the most challenges and last weekend I played a match in strong windy conditions. It was cold too which didn't help. It started me thinking, a TTT video on serving in difficult conditions would be a big help. The adjustments to make in windy conditions, serving when you're facing into the sun, etc and how to recognize the errors and adjust to them. I suspect the quest for the 'perfect serve' will be a lifelong quest for me. Thanks.
Fantastic coaching, Simon - already found 2 faults in my serve. Thank you 🙏🏽 for breaking things down so simply and clearly, and explaining the WHY of each step. Excellent work!! 👌🏽👊🏽
Loved it! Great, thorough explanation. Already started applying the first three steps. Direct and clear presentation and examples! The forehand video was excellent as well.
Thank You so much for your guidance on how to serve Sir , it really helped me, I even got my doubt cleared on why not to toss the ball high enough as we miss the sweetspot !!
Thanks for watching Tarun. Great profile pic also, one of the most entertaining moments in sports for me. Seeing Conor lay into Floyd was very special. All the best Simon
These videos are so good, I always look for top tennis training videos with help for my backhand, forehand, serve etc. Unbelievably good. Cheers gents.

I'm planning to watch more videos by you guys and also will comment when I have something in mind. Having said that, how about some attacking techniques in tennis... I don't know if you already have done it
Before I say anything, allow me to say this: This is HANDS DOWN the best video for serving on RUclips. It's NOT EVEN CLOSE. WELL DONE. Anyways... I started playing tennis this year, 3 months ago, and I'm actually REALLY good for being new (largely thanks to these videos). Anyways, I've been practicing my serve a LOT, and I've noticed something (on my BEST SERVES) that nobody mentions and I can't seem to repeat: there is a WHIP SNAPPING motion somewhere in the serve. (Or like a rubber-banding motion or something.) I don't THINK it's ENTIRELY the serving arm either.
Thank you for the nice comment Marc The snap comes from supination and pronation prior to and during the contact zone. Here's a video on it - ruclips.net/video/rvgkHQgdbC0/видео.html
Thank you!! you fixed so many of my serve problems in only 15 minutes!! i hope i can be a pro one day. theres a fat chance i wont, but man, wouldn't that be cool.
Nice. I would suggest to make a video abut fast movement serve. If I mean some player used to have a very fast arm movement when serving. Like Kevin Curren or Henry Leconte. They used to hit the ball on the rise of the toss. In so doing the opponent has very little time to precipice the direction of the ball. I tried to voluntarily speed the movement of the hitting arm and many opponent didn't have enough time to react.

Very good explanations. First time I have heard “supination, pronation, extended pronation to the left hip” stated in an understandable way. Cannot wait to try this when I play tomorrow!😊
Thanks for the clear breakdown of the key focus areas for serve. For the ball toss, I agree on placing the ball. I used to think we should hold the ball on the palm and place the ball from the palm instead of from fingers. Reason being it flow through the upward motion of the tossing hand, minimizing the directional movement to the sides. On the fingers, it will tend to focus on the wrist to push up. Please help my understanding. Thank you!
When you release from the palm the ball tends to roll off creating spin, the feeling is much greater in the fingers compared to the palm. Thanks for watching. All the best Simon
Hello pal, I've just taken up tennis again after 35 years. I think it would be helpful to take the serve training in increments. What I mean by this is is there a serve technique that may not be how the pros do it but more like how you learned to ride a bike I.E . with stabilisers on and then build a faster serv. My point is that I try to serve like this and it doesn't work or I can't find consistency in it. Wouldn't it be a better way to train to train a consistent serve that goes in 90% of the time and slowly build the speed 40mph 50mph 60mph etc? Welcome your feedback.
Very nice description but I would have loved to see more on Step 5. I agree on not "back scratching but the racket does need to move far enough to the left and back to generate a good degree of power.

Yes, there have been a few over the years.
