Kick Serve Tips with ATP

ATP Pro #259 Hady Habib shares some tips on how he hits a MONSTER KICK SERVE! He gives a quick breakdown of what he does:
1. Visualize the trajectory of the kick serve
2. How to toss and load at the same time
3. How to achieve the racket drop
4. Having a relaxed arm and wrist to create racket head speed
5. Keeping the body turned on the kick serve
Hope these tips helped and let me know in the comments below what you would like to see next!

love the technical stuff, that first kick by Hady was insane how high it got on the back fence

[@ChangBangTennis]

Thanks for watching! Haha yeah, I was in awe of how much it kicked. The video doesn't serve it justice

[@julianzhu0099]

Habib is in Olympics. Impressive!

[@vectorthurm]

This might be the most honest, insightful, and useful video on how to serve

[@AdultPlaysTennis]

Insane kick serve! would love to hear more clarification on the stances. Especially the flat vs kick and if it's different for platform vs pinpont. Thanks.

[@pangshubookclub]

Love your content!

[@ChangBangTennis]

thank you!

[@Macheeeeto]

Dude insane kick serve!

[@ChangBangTennis]

Crazy!

[@gedlyman1]

Would’ve been helpful to mention the rotation of the racquet head on contact, as in “pronate”.

[@Dasato123]

At the 3:54 when he’s talking about his grip he says “I like to use a Continental but more turned over to Eastern.” I think it’s important to specify that he’s talking about turning it more towards a Eastern Backhand grip. Beginners are watching this and you give them any excuse to continue using a forehand grip when serving no matter how misconstrued and they’ll run with it. “ Its ok to serve with a forehand grip ChangBang Tennis said it’s ok.” Most of this generation of rec players don’t realize that serving with a backhand grip is even a actual thing.

[@JV-py3lg]

The spin you get with it turned more to eastern is greater than conti

[@TTech321]

Yeah I do the same thing on my second serve, just ever so slightly more towards eastern backhand. Easier to get a brush on the ball when tossing it more behind and to the left.

[@rishi11514]

The fact Karue had to deal with that serve and still won is a testament to how good he really is.

[@Jolo_Lee]

This is great stuff. Thanks!!! Btw, is it possible to have a slow mo version of the kick serve as well?

[@vinny6_9]

yeah, just use yt controls/settings and slow it down to 0.25x

[@thechessplayer8328]

he's jacked

[@saschamillard8270]

did you do any serve videos with him besides kicker? Honestly just in general it would be cool to get more court level content from you.

[@ChangBangTennis]

I will try. He's in some of my earlier videos. You can check them out. Thanks for watching

[@commondirtbagz7130]

@@ChangBangTennisI have. Big Changbang fan. Like serve. Watch more

[@jeffhermida4788]

there's some good pace on those kick serves too.

[@ChangBangTennis]

For sure!

[@waynetie7162]

Jonathan nice to see how giddy you were when Hadi does the same hip dip that you do lolol

[@ChangBangTennis]

Haha I can say I have the same service motion as a pro :)

[@HaiNguyen-rj8ey]

What do you mean by using the abs to go up? Sorry it is a bit hard for me to visualize that :(.

[@waynetie7162]

Another serve video? Christmas has come early 🎄

[@ChangBangTennis]

Thanks!

[@gxyxy1012]

Yeah, I've had the issue where my cosch says I need to accelerate more but that led to wrist pain.. Trying to figure out how to use less wrist while accelerating more

[@ChangBangTennis]

Maybe think about accelerating the racket more. I don't really think about accelerating with my wrist, if that makes sense/

[@pencilcheck]

oh wait, this is the same person who played karue sell at lima!!!

[@ChangBangTennis]

Lol yes.

[@shipwreck8847]

How do you even return that serve in the beginning of the video. That is so high up.

[@ChangBangTennis]

Yeah I couldn't return it!

[@LegolasD]

@@ChangBangTennis Take it on the rise, swing away and most importantly pray it goes in?

[@pencilcheck]

i am looking for some good tennis club to join, this one look good, would you recommend?

[@ChangBangTennis]

You mean in Houston? This one is just a neighborhood court so you will have to live in the area.

[@pencilcheck]

@@ChangBangTennis ahh, I will be living in around rice village, but happy to travel a bit (no car yet). But yea, sounds cool.

[@mikechan231]

The biggest mystery to club players in tennis is the kick serve. That thing is impossible.

[@mrchuckles1022]

To hit or to return?

[@mikechan231]

@@mrchuckles1022 both!

[@ChangBangTennis]

LOL SO TRUE!

[@reazahmed6943]

Thanks, but if you wanted to teach, please start from the grip...
