Sampras 1st Serve Comparison to NTRP 5.0

In this video I'll be analyzing my first serve with my model of choice, Pete Sampras. I'll be comparing our motions frame by frame to see what I've got right and what I still need to improve.
Overlay analysis is one of the most powerful tools a player can utilize for technical improvement. If you'd like an analysis of your own serve, reach out to me on Instagram @gravitytennischannel

Well done analysis. Thanks.

I like the idea of creating more space! It forces you to cover it quickly, which generates more racquet head speed. It's the same reason I like having a low and quick toss. Definitely gonna look at my serve and see if any of my positions can be optimized. Thanks!

You're welcome! Glad this video helped you!

You have a Insta ? I been trying to put together a Sampras serve as well and have the same issues . Biggest one being the elbow extending out so much right before the racquet head drop . Still on a quest to replicate its difficult to get all the pieces together .

Yup, my insta is @GravityTennisChannel. One key for getting the elbow lift is the cartwheel element of the serve, or "shoulder over shoulder." Mark Kovacs has some helpful pointers for achieving this.

Very cool. What’s the name of the app you are using?
