Hey guys! Thank you so much for watching the video 😊 Let me know in the comments which backswing you have or would like to have!

First time I've seen various serve backswings discussed. Nice!

I’ve been learning to serve obsessively and this may be the best video on it on KZfaq I know it’s just backswing but your technique, communication and production values are off the chart

Why are you guys so underrated? Yall should have 200,000 subs

You are a great instructor. For many years I've tried to have the classic backswing but my toss has always been a huge problem. I didn't realize it until I watched your video. I'm tried the second type or the delayed yesterday and I actually controlled my toss. Could have been just a good serving day but I'm going to stay with it for awhile and see what happens. Thank you

This is sick, might just be what I've been needing to improve my serve consistency!

Just realised that I've switched from 1 to 2. 2 allows me to be more relaxed in the first part of the serve (toss and backswing) and more explosive in the racket drop and contact. Great video, thanks!

Your videos are so brilliantly presented. I've coached for years but some of these are massively improving my understanding of modern techniques

Fantastic video. Nobody really discusses the serve backswing per say that much. So good job here.

Honestly, my backswing felt really stiff while I was doing the staggered backswing. But I took the quiz and switched to the classic backswing and everything just felt so much more fluid. Thank you so much for this

I'm coming back from pandemic slowdown. My serve was suffering and I was in just the past few days fixing my hitting arm position. Not many coaches teach this, on the serve or otherwise.Saw a Federer serve video where he straightens his hitting arm on the windup, flexes his chest, then cocks at the elbow. Your lesson does exactly this and my serve is BACK! Thanks!

Reason I found the abbreviated so helpful was it took my focus off of my arm and I could focus more on the legs and jumping at the ball.

Great video! I'm a big fan of the abbreviated motion (Roddick's serve)!

One of underrated tip for better serve. Thank you for making vedio. And thanks to youtube algo that I ended here!!!!

These 2 brothers are the best. Great stage presence and charisma!

Thank you! Thank you! This completely explains what I’ve been trying to figure out through experiment. Ive always used a full swing, but when I saw how hard you hit your serve in a previous video, I tried to mimic it but had no real clue what I was doing. Turns out I was actually doing the most abbreviated motion….and I can’t believe how effortless speed is generated with a much shorter ball toss and quick motion. Definitely a learning curve after all these years, but I’m loving it.

If the perfect content didn't exist, now there it is! Congrats bro, you are the best of all.

Your videos and comments are incredible, a very good knowhow, amused and instructive

Thank you!. I have been looking for exactly a lesson like this that can fix my backswing! Very well made, crisp lesson. Would love to see more lessons on different shots from you sir. For example, I want fix my forehand, specifically for slow balls where I tend to hit out of the court

Thanks for your detailed explanation if the different types of back swings.

Most detailed explanation Ive ever seen . Great video

Great video, thanks. I've never seen the backswing techniques explained in such a detailed way. It has cleared my mind on technical questions I've always had in the past on the backswing.

This is amazing and a very helpful content! ❤

Such great quality videos. Keep them coming!

Great video on different variations of the serve. I am just trying to build up more consistency and variety at the present time.

This is another great video from you. I had once tried to the delay one, until I realised that I opened racket during the swing/drop. So I switched back to classic one, as the elbow move keeps the racket close. Quick question: are you the same one with the short hair doing the serve contact video before? Your videos are all great with good technical explanation and no gimmick. Love your work! 👍😍

Another great RF vid 👍

Great explanation of the different back swings. Very thorough and clear.

such a professional breakdown, excellent work

Excellent analysis and explanation. ❤

Another excellent video! I have the classic back swing because Federer.

Thanks a lot ! Clear explanations, even for a French speaker like me! 😂

Exactly what I keeded thanks!

Great job, love categorical breakdowns, excellent work!

Finally someone made a video about this. Was wondering how the hell do the pros move their arms during the backswing. What's worse is the ad and deuce serves may look slightly different due to camera angle => making it tough to see whats going on.

Thanks for posting mate! This explains the mechanics pretty quickly and clearly. I scored the staggered momentum serve :)

Great video gives me more ways to work my serve thanks!

Out standing.

Make more content dude… absolutely fab

My man top notch video like always! Love the hair bro but aero dynamic wise it must slow you down on the court lol!

From my understanding, Nadal uses the abbreviated. Nice

Abbreviated backswing here, made the switch one day and never looked back. Far more consistent for me.

Always a great lesson.

Thank you for your sharing and explanation.But I have a little suggestion, especially for the green hand about server: could you please make the slow motion of backswing, i.e. arm motion, rotation, wrist rotation and so on. Thank you.

You explained that well :))

I really enjoyed your video first time I've seen you show three different types of serving motions I kind of prefer roddick's motion it seems to work best for me looking forward to your next video

Just watched your tennis con 5 offering and it was really good. I know a lot of instructors say stay sideways through the motion but it seems that what you teach really stresses the turning of the shoulders into contact to cause the racket drop and shoulder to go internal to external. Any clarification you could provide, I’d love to know. Thanks for the awesome stuff.

That shit helped a lot, awesome stuff guys!

Great video! So helpful

This channel is so underrated

Excellent video!

Very nice! I am John from Greece and i found it very detailed. Great job, sincerely!!! Mine is the second 😂

Awesome Vid!! Can you do a vid on the toss? Mines are erratic. I cant seem to fine the perfect release point.

Really xcellent.. 😁 And the infectious laughter..

Thanks, great video.. Can you please tell us how to deal with the toss timing and the bending/jump when you serve? It's so important and no one talks about it. It's so hard to do.

that wilson blade 104 v7 can serve up some serious bombs too...

Bravo 🙏

TOP content. Talented guy.

Great video, thank you

Love you!!! How about a slice serve.

Great vid as always

I use the classical pendulum backswing

This guy is legit💪🏾!!!

Very nice...

Maxime Cressy serve would be an "abbreviated backswing"? I really like his serve and I want to serve that way.

Hola amigo muy buenos los vídeos y explicaciones del servicio tipo latigazo natural

love this one so much, I really wanna serve like Federer and I’ve always have problems on backswing. Thank you so much sir.

I'm kind of in-between first and second type before I stayed in the second one lately, and I used the pinpoint stand from the beginning

You’re back!

Amazing video!

F A N T A S T I C Video guys. Cheers and keep going

Very informative

I know this is kinda old video. But its nice to see your solo training affirmed. I’ve been 6’2 since highschool. I always had naturally “always in”with acceptable Pace my entire highschool career. I could never get that real power. Ive since started serving in my own, and i have come to discover these backswings on my own. After a particularly good day of serves i got the idea to look up data on back swings and i find this video. Hell yes. Love the quizz. gonna make some corrections to try to use all three. They all feel like they have they’re uses.

best channel on yt!!!!!

Killing it

Can you make a video on the smash?

I love your videos now. You have toned down the stylistic portions of the production in favor of more information content. I started with the abbreviated takeback and it worked fine because it was simple. But timing was hard. And as I got more coordinated, I moved to the staggered takeback. However, I did experience the problems with a poor drop. I have to say that I did not try to copy any pros technique at this point. I was just trying to get a reliable serve. When these efforts failed, I moved to the classical takeback. I also toss parallel to the baseline with a platform stance. Like yours, my whole serve is basically modeled from Fed's serve and I admit it was hard to get. The journey was about 1.5 years of hard work but it's worth it. When i used the other takebacks, my serve was just so inconsistent. Sometimes I would hit with power. Sometimes not. Sometimes it would be accurate and sometimes not. Now I can consistently serve with good power and accuracy. I also have a reliable kicker and decent slice. Life is good. Thanks for the video.

This guy is legit!!

On the staggered do you pull the elbow back with the toss?

Great video any thoughts on which backswing is easier on rotator cuff

LOve your teachings

wow! what a great video!

this is great!

How do you like your V7? Is the V8 worth upgrading into? Thank you!

Welcome back, guys!

Hi great vid. The evaluation questionnaire does not work for me.

How fast is your serve?abbreviated motion..what do you mean?best regards

1 classical pendulum 2 staggered delayed 3 abbreviated

Great video

Thank you so much for another original and insightful analysis! (Mind-blowing stuff!) Whenever you have a chance, just a quick question: do players with a staggered backswing toss the ball more in front of the baseline to buy time or is the backswing with racquet drop just more accelerated? (I've been struggling with the timing here and end up opening the racquet face up too early exactly the way that you've show, propelling the ball long.)

Great stuff. But is it alright for a player to mix different backswings depending on the situation?

I have a staggered motion but seeing how much fun you have doing the abbreviated motion makes me want to try it. =D I’m not sure why but Wawrinka’s take back makes me cringe. I guess seeing the racquet that high that long makes me think of waiter’s tray or something.

I want to watch your videos but i never know which serve you are illustrating in this video are you talking about flat serve or kicker or slice??

welcome back!

Abbreviated can obviously work but I can't quite comprehend how it's possible to generate as much power with it. I guess the abbreviated is more like a football quarterback and the staggered is like a baseball pitcher, and success with each movement pattern will depend on how you use your legs (forward momentum is better for staggered while upward momentum better for abbreviated)

what is the speed of your splendid serve

I'd like to have the classic backswing

I wish you would explain the type of serve would this be the first serve and is this a flat serve because I dont see any spin.

Do you have any courses about the serve?

What about Delbonis' pre-backswing lol
