Perfect, that's a great video. Sometimes my serve feels a bit rush / out of rhythm. I'm going to work on adding a lag and see how it feelsYou have a typical up together serve motion, I would work on having a serve lag to get a more fluid motion.
Have a look at this video
But lots of other things to comment on, but I am sure the good people here will give you some good tips.

Thanks for the feedback, that makes a lot of sense too.I think you start dropping your left arm and uncoiling your shoulders before you've completed your leg loading.
Rewatching, I think you use your legs to aid your toss, then you have to bend your knees again to load later. Don't do that. It's a tennis ball, not a kettlebell, and you only need to toss it 2-5 feet over your head.
Just lift your arm to toss, and then keep it up until you are ready to explode up to the ball. Then pull it down as you drive your body up with your legs.
Your front foot should land about 2 feet inside the baseline considering the height of your jump. The fact that your foot currently lands behind the baseline means that there is virtually zero forward momentum of your center of gravity.I'd like to get more consistent with my serve. Should my toss be a lot lower? If so, I'll need to adjust my timing quite a bit and work on consistently tossing at the same height.
Anything that looks especially off or any tips?
