I would not want to play against your serves, but greatly appreciate your insight on how to effectively execute the Kick Serve! The brushing from 7>1 (and 8>2) are the best explanations I’ve seen.. The emphasis on the ball toss is still at Noon (or just slightly behind the left shoulder), correct? Cheers from Hawai’i 🤙

Extremely clever practice tips Thx Simon, most especially on the bent knee. This is a very clever way and love the clever thinking behind how you can develop it yourself. Ultra-high tennis IQ! Keep it up! I was a teenage competitive player in Canada and also a tennis coach back in the late 80's and hung up the racket since then but getting back into it... would be super interested to hear your take on players who are doing what I am... there are many. They play from age 6-9 to 14-18 and then life gets in the way, and many other things come out that are more important. Hang up the racket. Then age 40-50 we come back to the game. What then? How is it different?

@TopTennisTrainingOfficial 10 ай бұрын

Many thanks 🙏 I’ve worked with many players who went through the same experience. Played a lot as juniors, gave up for 10, 20 or 30 years and come back to tennis later on. The hand eye coordination is always there. You don’t lose that. However, I’ve found that many of them were taught classical techniques. Neutral or closed stances, take the racket back down low, extend towards the target, continental grip for the forehand etc It’s almost like a Time Machine watching them play. Very often I’d have to teach them the new fundamentals, new grips, new stances, how to create topspin, how to move more efficiently, basically like a systems update from version 1.4 to a 8.2 The main thing is to enjoy the game and find the love of learning the new systems

@shawnwiley7964 8 ай бұрын

Great video. The only thing I am a little confused about is the description of the contact point on the ball at 4:20 . Which direction are you looking at the ball from as you visualize the clock face?

@sebosanova3047 10 ай бұрын

Always interesting... Thanks! Concerning the leg drive, do you slightly put more focus (push) on the front or back leg???

@TopTennisTrainingOfficial 10 ай бұрын

Both legs drive equally as much, however, in the loading phase, the body weight can be more on the back leg to facilitate the shoulder drop

@josantorres93 10 ай бұрын

Great breakdown, your first video on serve helped me a lot and this one will as well I’m sure. Do you think it is possible to hit kick serve with continental grip? Or is eastern mandatory

@TopTennisTrainingOfficial 10 ай бұрын

Many thanks 🙏 It’s absolutely possible to hit the kick serve with the continental grip, many players use that grip. But, some players benefit more from a slight adjustment

Slightly towards the backhand grip of you are a righty for the kick serve is do ATP players use Continental grip??

@socrs Ай бұрын

Greetings coach… One problem not mentioned… If you spin from left to right the ball just spins and spins but makes hardly any forward motion. Getting that forward motion on the kick sounds like common sense (hitting more forward), but much harder than it looks. Cheers

@socrs Ай бұрын

For any poor souls that have the same issue... If too much spin and not enough forward motion pronate more. That's the key

Can you do a kick-serve ball toss and show us where it lands (assuming it isn't hit)?

@TopTennisTrainingOfficial 7 ай бұрын

It would land to the left side of the body in general, unless you keep the same toss as usual but adjust your leg drive. And it would land somewhere around the baseline or just behind it if you’re really going for the precise kick serve basics

Do you use Pure Aero? String and tension? ✌🏻✌🏻😀

@TopTennisTrainingOfficial 10 ай бұрын

Yes I use that frame for now. An unknown poly string, tension is between 38-42lbs depending on the weather

@andreasozzi2538 10 ай бұрын

Low low, little control

@TopTennisTrainingOfficial 10 ай бұрын

It depends on the strings. Tight strings don’t require a high tension. Many pros are now using 40lbs and below on the right poly strings. Mannarino uses 18-25lbs at some events. Tight strings plus tight tensions = injuries. Players have to hit so much harder to produce power

@andreasozzi2538 10 ай бұрын

Thanks Simon, but your racket is the Pure Aero 98? Do you gauge 1.25 mm or 1.30mm?
