Hi Nadim, Dai here from Wales. Been working on a slow build up to impact on my serve a lot recently. I'm 53 but pretty agile and fit at 5"9' tall but the elbow low on toss confirms what I felt as opposed to knew so a big thanks for confirming that for me. Dai
Thank you thank you thank you!Am hoping this will help with my yips on the toss.Love the supination in your hitting arm on the take back.Shades of Milos Raonic!
Hi there. Should the tossing arm go up when your weight is going backward as in your demo? I thought you want us to toss it when your weight is going back forward (after the rocking motion)? Please clarify.
Yes i do this - couldn’t work out what was wrong video really helps. If you’re prepared to pay for me to fly out to Florida I’ll explain in detail. Ha!
Notable that you are tossing while your weight is on your back foot. That's hard to see in other videos and I'm going to try it out to see how it feels.
thanks for another nugget of serve wisdom! OTI has many, delivered concisely and memorably
Excellent instruction Nadeem. Thanks for sharing!
Really good teaching! Thanks for the tips here!
I like how your right wrist goes into ulnar deviation in the trophy pose

Please demonstrate your serve as an example.

Milos Raonic does what you say not to do and he has one of the hardest serves. What gives?
It would be more helpful if you started the video demonstrating the proper complete motion you were describing.
