Second Serve?

Semi-Pro
Hi, I've been practicing flat serve for a while and now I'm pretty consistent. Now I want to practice some 2nd serves. Can anyone tells me what kind of 2nd serves there are and how do i do them?

Thanks

This topic is done a lot. I suggest starting with a kick serve and use the search to find a lot of threads on how to hit this. The other options are a topspin serve (commonly used to mean the same thing as kick though kick often refers to a combination of slice and topspin). The other options are a slider (I see this more commonly called a twist in the USA and probably on these forums to) and a slice. Use the search function on how to hit these serves. This Wikipedia article is worth reading to understand what each of these serves are first of all.
