how to do a wrist snap in my serve

i am working on my serve but i can't get the wrist snap down every time i go to do the wrist snap no matter where i aim the ball still goes straight in front of me where (if i was playing doubles) the other teams net player would be any idea?

the wrist snap is what occurs naturally once you have the right grip, right form (trophy) and right toss. All you need to focus is from take back to the contact point. The wrist snap will take over. Do keep your arm loose with continental grip and it will happen. Dont worry and dont think of it as a neccesity. It will happen. Also, toss the ball more out in front this will help with the body and legs uncoil up and out into the court

turn your body more sideways.

For me this was not something that just naturaly happens.

First let me say that you don't even need to worry about this if you do not have a consistant toss and a high and I mean high toss.


Now after all that you can pretty much take your time and get your body how you want.

I personally have to toss with weight on back foot a begining and then on front bowing with arm pointed all the way up bringing racket up, that is the trophy.

After this you are ready to let that racket drop and relax, the racket drop and then once it drops down you turn the body, should and snap up.


Once you get this the serve will feel so easy.

You can get even more if you keep the toss right above the head.

What grip are you using ??

You should think of it as forearm pronation done quickly .... like a slap.

Wrist snap is natural. If it isn't happening, then you are tensing your muscles too much.
