I’d agree. I’ve been playing tennis for about 30 years and I’ve seen my kids being coached by pros, and I’ve never seen anyone explain technique in simple and clear terms like Ryan does, ever. Heck, both me and my kids have benefited from Ryan’s simple but hugely effective tips, more than from anywhere else. Kudos!!!

I have been playing tennis for years. Self taught, have a decent serve, but always look to improve and now that I have a son of playing age, I look for lessons that can be useful (as it's very different knowing what to do and TEACH it) so that I can teach him. This is one of the most comprehensive, detailed lessons on the serve that is on video. Thank you for the time and effort.

[@kevinm.1565]

Really helped me understand more of the physics of what’s happening with the “ball goes where the strings point,” and then racket path creates direction of spin. I was struggling with serve in part because the whole side on, swing up, swing towards side fence, etc., never made any logical sense to me, so I was never able to troubleshoot my own serve. Very helpful, thank you.

No doubt I'm finally on the right course. You'll love my chocolate cake! 💯

[@Richibald1]

Well someone with super critique will add if I don't. Suoinate, pronate KEEP YOUR ARM LOOSE. I'm going to have to practice both especially SUPINATE. Getting that knife edge makes sense in theory mastering it in reality... Let's just say thankfully I have the entire winter to develop any muscle memory. Being a righty getting the serve short and to the back hand in the ADD COURT is now a possibility. Probability? I'll get back right back to you, somewhere in April 🤭

[@gw4583]

Drawing the line helps so much. TY sir

[@myownstatecl]

I just wanted to thank you man. You literally saved my tennis ass. I had a very nice serve in a past but then there was a huge break. When I decided to get back to the game something got changed in my serve technique and I started feeling a sharp shoulder pain when serving (at the exact moment I hit a ball). I made a research and realized that there are at least a few shoulder problems that might cause the pain including impingement and so on. At the same time I received a lot of suggestions what to do from my local tennis community and people have suggested a lot of things like stretch, yoga, doctor appointment, MRI and stuff like that. But I decided to try something from my opinion more realistic and reviewed my serve technique a long with this brilliant video. And all pain has gone immediately. You are great!!!

[@EbiAtawodi]

This is exactly me right now! Took a decade break and having intense pain when I serve. Everyone telling me to do exercises and see a physio but I suspect in addition to that, it is my technique. Seeing your comment makes me feel not alone and on the right track watching this video 🤩

[@alarson8355]

Thanks for the great video.....you show the correct way to serve step by step very clearly

[@jkn1951]

Excellent list of Check Points for the serve. I would add that after you release the ball ALLOW YOUR TOSSING ARM TO CONTINUE UPWARD ALMOST TO THE VERTICAL. This will insure a reasonable height for the ball and it helps to get you into the "Power Position" where your front shoulder is higher than your back shoulder. Another outstanding tennis video. Bravo.

[@guyswiggins]

Agree! Really focusing on keeping my tossing arm as straight as possible has really helped my serve. Too many Rec players drop the tossing arm way too soon. The pros really stretch that towards the sky

[@2b45]

Thank you for breaking down the serve in to parts makes it easier to understand as a beginner.

[@massagebygabriela]

One of the best videos I've seen on the serve.I already have the lines drawn on my hand and the racket, practicing in my living room and hoping to implement this in my USTA match tomorrow. Will continue practicing afterwards. I love the birthday hat idea! Thank you.

[@barrygriffin9053]

At about the eight minute mark, you addressed probably the single most important thing to help me improve and that is “don’t be too hard on yourself.” I am notoriously self critical, and it is detrimental to my learning because I have expectations that exceed my ability at this point. Great analogy about baking a cake and tasting the flower and saying it sucks. Of course it’s going to suck, it’s not done yet. I have been told how to serve by instructors and have gone out and hit hundreds of balls for hours on end and didn’t seem to get anywhere, not on any consistent level anyway. Going to give this step-by-step improvement method a chance and will definitely report back. Thank you so much for all of your great videos, they are very greatly appreciated.

From hitting like 30% double faults i am down to maybe 4 a match. And my first serve is fast and consistent. Also watched a few other of your service, toss and return, forehand etc videos and my tennis game has become so much better it is ridiculous. I love it to each day work on my technicsl skills at home and focus on like three things when I actually go play and improve it step by step.
