Nobody talks about the fact that serving is done with your dominant hand and arm but tossing is done with your non-dominant hand and arm, and then you have to master the art of doing a small little task with your non-dominant hand, particularly learning to do the simple act of tossing a ball in the air with your non-dominant hand, so the dominant side of your body can take over. the way to do this is by isolating the task that the non-dominant side of your body has to do, which you can best do isolating the small task that needs to be performed, which is a simple flick of the wrist and release by the fingers in your left hand.

Extremely useful Tips, Big Thanks ❤👍🙏
Clear and accurate explanations, also comes with why and hows. The best ball toss video I’ve seen! Thank you and keep up the good work!
Thank you for the kind words! 😊
Great tips Dylan 👌
great tips, i was just looking for this!
Great explanation. Very helpful. Thanks a lot.
Great to hear that! Thanks for the comment
Soooo helpful!❤
Great to hear that 😊
First of all, great job.
I have been a teaching pro for a dozen years and I use these a few more ways to practice serve "lift" or "place", but i will add #3 which i have never seen before.
For #6, i do it at the service line and have contests. When in practice, i can use one ball to hit the other into the service box 3x in a row or more. The key is to throw when the first ball is at the inflection point (zero velocity for .1 seconds) and making sure that inflection point is within an inch of the intended contact point. I compete with students. They get one pt if they make contact, 2 if they hit it over the net, 3 if they get it in the box. I only score if i get it in the box.
For #5, i do "inch by inch" using a racket instead of hula hoop. starting at 5 inches dropping in the middle, increasing the height inch by inch until all the way up. If the ball doesn’t bounce back up, start over at the bottom. This teaches clean release.
Hope someone finds these enhancements useful.
Thanks for this comment! I am sure people will appreciate the detailed explanation. I like the idea of the ball hitting the second ball and going over and in. Thank you 😊
Fantastic tips! I will try the two-ball drill for sure. ❤
Thank you
Fantastic and on point, subscribed
Thank you!
Thanks Dylan. Your lession are so helpfull for me. 7:24
Great thanks
Excellent presentation!
Thank you
Dude, crazy good video. I struggled with it for years and never realised my bad ball toss is due to releasing the ball late. Can’t wait to try it!
Much appreciated! I hope it goes well 😊
Hi Dylan, thanks for this video. I understand this will help us improve the consistency. Can you tell us more on what should be the changes for specific serve styles like slice, kick and flat? Personally interested in kick serve. When trying to place the ball little bit behind me, I lose control of the toss and body.
No problem! Yes sure I can mention this in future videos. Thanks for the comment
Let's be clear, if you do not hit the ball, you are still on your first serve. An abrupt stoppage of the service motion or swinging and missing the ball entirely does not constitute a service fault.
Thank you so much
Awesome! Glad I could help you
You’re right about taking me years😂😅 Excellent coaching, as always from. Thanks.
Thank you 😆😊
Excellent lesson, Dylan. I'm having a problem with the back scratch position and then pushing off with the rear leg. Can you do a video on that?

Check this video out 😊
Bravo
Very helpful 👍
Yeap a lot of good ideas
Thank you
Makes a ton of sense and I can't wait to try it! Only thing, I'll have to switch sides of the video to make you righty, because watching lefties drives me crazy: I already started to mimick tossing with the right hand 🤣
Ahah oops 😅
Thanks for the support
in the second exercise you seem to be releasing the ball when you are moving backward and/or on your back foot. Woiuldnt the correct motion be tossing the ball as you move FORWARD pushing off of sorts on your back leg? This would also ensure the ball moves forward into the court
Great video. In your actual toss, are you palm up or palm to the side (like Federer with motion as if holding a glass of water)? Thanks!
Thank you!
My personal preference is palm up but some of my clients prefer the holding the glass analogy to prevent the wrist from being used.
These are very interesting exercises. I have been struggling with my serve, trying to fix the waiter tray😢 obsessively but I shouldn't neglect the toss. With an inconsistent toss, no matter what I do after, it still will be a bad serve.
Starting slow and gradual is important, shadow swings with the pretending of placing the ball toss will help too
Excellent video. This is my biggest issue in tennis. Like many pros, you stretch and flatten your tossing hand while extending it very high. Any tips on this element of completing the toss?
Think of the ball toss arm as a tracking arm. As the racket starts to initiate it’s upwards accelerate your ball toss hand will tuck into the body as a braced effect. Enabling the racket to accelerate faster.
@@Tenniswithdylan thanks!
I am normally observing poor toss from my sparing partners hope it will help greatly as I share with them.
Yes I hope the video can help 😊
Excellent class.
Thank you
What do you think to tossing sideways to the baseline?
Yes more advanced but great for the coiling of your body. Starting towards the net post is best
Dear Lord … 😍
Fuck i need this bad
When do we bend our knees? At the top of the toss or after?
Initiate the loading just as the ball has been released from the ball toss hand
Thanks, I think I understand?
😊
Somebody couches tells that when you are finishing serve, your rocket's hand must not to finish in opposite side of body. What do you think about it?
Tuck into the body first
@@Tenniswithdylan yes, and then move to the default position
Dylan thank you liked & subscribed. I notice something I don't believe you talk about in this video. You're a lefty so must have been your right* leg kicks up a lot after serving the ball.
Do you enjoy a lot of kick serves in your matches or is this just (pardon pun) a knee jerk reaction. It does tend to lean your center of gravity INTO the court. Perhaps this is your justification for kicking up the leg... 🤔
I have never heard a coach say the ball placement can take years to master. Thanks for the honesty. For certain ball placement is no knee jerk reaction. A good rule of thumb, if you're not placing the ball up for service accurately, you're just as likely not getting enough sleep! It does take concentration and few coaches actually convince students the crucial importance of tossing the ball accurately, some great tips thank you for your video, nice job 👍👍
Thank you for the kind words!
The leg drive will come from the back leg and the body will counter balance itself with the back leg coming up, not forced. I hope this makes sense. It’s like a weighing scale, when you lean forwards with your upper body your back leg will come upwards to stabilise itself.
@@Tenniswithdylan some counter balances are better than others. Mine has a hard enough time kicking on the kick serve 🤭👋
You forgot to talk about the wrist bro.
Neutral wrist, no flick!
Slow- fast ....I Like that...
