Hi JKC, Fred's serves at 1:21 is actually the type of reverse serve that I do when I play/coach these days. I use the reverse that I did in the video less often. Fred aced you with a snake variation at 1:29 which fits in very nicely with his style of reverse. I'll tell you what I like a lot btw, although I'm off topic. The style of backhand off-the-bounce he played at 1:40. The mechanics are close to perfect, in my opinion. I will make a backhand video at some stage soon, explaining in my "style" how to learn such a stroke as I feel the backhand is often misunderstood. Fred's age? Cheers, Brett |

I feel the same way after just seeing this "older" video of Fred. Wonderful backhand shots and his touch and feel for the game is incredible! I have not seen a vid of him in a long time.....how long ago was this one JKC? I was amazed to see his play and how it has progressed so much. |

He was 11 when we made this vid. It was 6 months ago.
He had had 4 weeks+ off with a wrist injury before we made the following vid (in my sig) which is why he doesn't look so sharp in that one.

He should if we want to create a textbook player. Not much point in that though. The next European player to be truly competitive with the Chinese is unlikely to have an entirely textbook game. If we constantly aim to iron out the individuality and then we play into the hands of the Chinese who can always work harder and longer on the ordinary.

Can anyone explain, why I can`t watch the video of this snake serve in the first post? It seems, that everyone else can watch it, but I not. I always get a notice, that this video is "privat", no matter, if I try to watch it on Facebook or in Youtube. I am clueless.

It was viewable when it was first posted. Perhaps OP might have changed permissions on it. Might want to send him message to change permissions it.

I like putting heavy topspin on the ball...

when doing the snake and reverse , in both of them , his hand move in the same direction ( towards the left) but with different contact points , making 1 a topspin and the other a backspin
but how is his snake serve producing a ball that is curving towards the left , instead of right like the reverse serve Edited by _maddic - 11/10/2014 at 8:19pm |

Hi maddic, the illusion is created by having a small movement inside a larger movement. When you look at the big picture, your mind believes both swings (reverse and snake) should make the ball curve right. But if you were to just focus in on my wrist, you would see the small wrist movement on the snake that makes the ball go left. Try blocking everything out, except for my wrist. Using different contact points on the bat helps as well I'm able to make the wrist movement very small by touching the ball on the top and side.

Bears! This ties back to the "honey on topsheet" thread.
We were warned there would be bears. And here they are, critisising our technique to rub salt into the wounds. |

This was a great signature until I realised it was overrated.
