THE COACH
Patrick

[@ryanspoopstang]

"no problem" he's a nice guy

[@loganthewolverine2030]

When the coach is willing to get hit with the racquet and the ball just to see their player improve, you know they have passion for teaching. This guy has it.

Hitting a severe over a 12 foot fence will help a person develop a kick serve in a day! Great job on the video my friend.

Excellente

“it’s in!!” he is volley guy!!

[@MaratG69]

Good 👍

[@ROrneli]

Just bend your knees ,toss the ball at 11 o clock , lead with the edge of the raquet into the ball , aim to hit the back of the ball across and out. Imagine you are hitting a very spinny forehand upside down .

[@PokeWizzYT]

I think Moratoglou should wear tighter sweatpants; everybody loves an old man in extremely tight sweat pants.

[@synhet84]

LMAO you killed me bro

[@diegosotomiranda4107]

Hahahaha i knew someone would make a comment about it, i think it was a little too much too xD

[@jm7804]

Not fair. Those are the type of sweatpants you need to wear to exercise in. Otherwise they hinder your movement.

[@giamiramontes5639]

[@ViaticalTree]

Pour le moment je n’arrive pas du tout à faire ces services kickés et mon service slicé est inoffensif. Petit à petit…

[@synhet84]

Pareil le kick est dur a chopper

[@farouk5101]

I guess you have to hit the ball a bit lower so that you can have much more spin on the ball..because when you hit the ball higher you cant give it much spin and it will much more of a flat serve..

[@serveyourname5565]

As for rec players, this isn't really recommended since kick practice tends to ruin your shoulders. She's an elite player as a matter of fact.

[@ROrneli]

Ugh not really.

[@TheTennisDaddy]

Well every elite player learnt a kick serve at a young age when they were rec players 🤷

[@lovedateline110]

Those pants are too tight for you bro

Aren't you telegraphing your intentions then? Or maybe it's to learn the fundamentals and then break them?

[@samueljohn8734]

You can kick down the T, body, or wide. Shoulders & hips are always turned starting a serve however, during a kick serve the position holds through contact helping to create height and direction. Andy Rodick has the highest degree of hip rotation found on a serve. I believe somewhere around 130°.

[@maxpowers4436]

Theim telegraphs his kick all the time and still has one of the best kicks. If its good enough it wont matter. Once you get good enough you can learn to have the same position but hit down the tee to mix it up.

[@huanle2846]

[@tyrone2252]

Imo you're always telegraphing a kick serve with the toss unless you're Pete Sampras or Roger Federer. Only 2 guys I've seen that can disguise all their serves with a single toss. However to do what they do requires tremendous timing and lots of back and shoulder flexibility

[@jm7804]

Even if you know a kick is coming it's still hard to return...especially off the backhand side.
