Learn the Backspin Reverse Pendulum Serve
PingSkills Would you need to toss it towards you or straight up? And how do I know where to contact the ball if I can't see the area of my racket where I am hitting the ball to get the backspin on the ball?
By the rules you should be tossing the ball nearly vertical. You want to hit the ball near your right hip so practice throwing it up to that position. Watch the ball for as long as you can and then swing through using your wrist.
Thank you so much for your support. That helped me a lot.
Finally i learned how to do pendulum, because most coaches are right handed, but in this video the coach is left-handed like me. Thank you coach!!! From 🇰🇼
Well done!
Glad you liked it!
Great. Thanks for the recommendation. It is great that your serve is becoming a real weapon. Keep on working hard and I'm sure you've got plenty of room to get even better!
You're AWESOME, Alois!! I have just been getting this serve down, however, you make it look so fluid and easy. Cheers!!
Thanks. Keep working on the serve :)
I think you make some good points. Most people would benefit from improving the basic strokes. The reverse pendulum serve has become quite popular though and a lot of younger players seem to learn this serve quite quickly and easily.
A few people have commented they find it hard to visualise this for a right handed player. Just start practicing the shot by yourself without a ball and you'll start to get a feel for the serve. Also go to the ask the coach section of our website and look up video responses. You'll find a couple there on the reverse pendulum serve that might help you out.
Hi Manfred R.,
It does look quite weird but it is not easy for players to tell exactly what spin you've put on the ball which is why it is quite effective. If you do have a good backhand serve though you can use that instead. You'll find different players have difficulty with different serves which is why there is no one best serve. The best serve is the one your current opponent has the most trouble with.
PingSkills Its Very Difficult to do this serve when i do it it bounces really high and makes my enemy smash
ThePurpleOne Take a look at our video on "keeping the ball low". If you Google that with the word PingSkills you'll find the video. You could use what we describe in that video to help you with this serve.
You could try hitting the ball lower to the table or try hitting it more forward rather than down into the table to stop it bouncing as high.
OrangeGaming Gaming Then you are probably imparting excess force from your forearm. The trick is to use the transfer of force from the flick of your wrist and anothing else.
PingSkills ypiam
You're welcome. Good luck with it! Remember these skills take a while to learn so make sure you allow plenty of time to practice it. Don't give up if you don't get it straight away.
Glad it is working for you. Yes I remember teaching you the serve. How is it all going out there? Alois
Thanks Pingskills, from u, I learn this spin and it was very effective when I am in completion, not only this spin but u also taught me more
Thanks!!!
Great to hear. Keep up the good work.
Des einen Freud, des anderen Leid.....
One person thinks its good the other doesn't like it....
Could someone tell me the English figure of speech, please?
One man's joy is another man's sorrow?
Yeah, as I mentioned in another comment these skill do take a while to learn so don't give up too early. Try practicing it away from the table at first where you don't have the pressure of having to serve it on the table, just start trying to hit it. This will take some time. Once you can hit the ball more consistently then you can try it at the table.
Good luck!
Thanks Borko. To return fast topspin serves you can topspin them back. We also have a section on our website dedicated to Receiving serves.
Ahaha Alois! I still remember you teaching me this serve a few years ago :P
Nowadays, everybody says it's one of my best serves.
If you like the serve then keep practicing it. Like everything it takes time to learn.
Nice. It's great to be able to surprise your friends.
One Million views! Good Job Jeff and Alois
A tip I would give, is to move your upper body forwards as you do the stroke. This gives the ball some forward momentum. It's a great serve because the swing for backspin, sidespin and topspin is very much the same, and you opponent doesn't know the spin until you hit the ball, much as what Alois said in the vid.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Great to hear!
Hi Matt, I didn't follow exactly what you meant. But only if the ball touches the net on the way over after bouncing on the servers side is it a let.
You're welcome!
Thank you so much I'm 12 and I'm decent at ping pong, half the time i either miss the serve or it is clear topspin. when you said you need to go under, i totally understood how to do it thank you :3
Hello.I just started to play table tennis,and thanks to your videos I become a realy better player.But,I have one question.How should I return a realy fast top spin serve and a fast side spin serve?Thank you. :)
good suggestion.
Hi Karl, There is a section on the Reverse Pendulum serve there as well.
can you make a video on what exercises to do to strengthen your muscles for table tennis?
Thanks!
You certainly can. With short pips rubber however you can't generate as much spin because the short pips don't grip the ball as much as normal rubber.
When you go to a tournament, it's important not to try to many new things. Stick with what you know well. After the tournament you'll have plenty of time to practice learning new skills. Under pressure situations you need to know that you've got the technique down perfectly.
Most players are right hand
It already has 2 mln. Views keep going pingskills
Wow, thanks for pointing that out. I never thought we'd have 2 million views on a single video!
PingSkills Your video’s are awesome, I’ve learned so much by now thanks to you guys!!!
I love this serve, this wasn't as hard to follow because your a fellow left hander.
You can but a lot of people use this serve. Having a variation is a good idea as your opponent may not have seen a serve like this as much and might have more trouble reading the exact amount of spin on it.
nice tutorial.!! thank you guys!! can you give us a JO Waldner serves tutorial?? regards from argentina!
Amazing pendelum
Thanks Jjcc Ravelo
We have a blog on this on our website. Take a look and see if it helps you out.
Hey Allois, what are the best serves in table tennis? Which are your favorites? And how dues Ma Long do His weird trick shots!?
I know this us a lot to ask, but I suck at table tennis, and would love to get better.
Hey Chris_Pro_Gaming
The best place to ask questions is on our website as we check there all the time. The best serves really depend on each opponent. A short serve that bounces twice on the table is effective as it stops your opponent from making a strong attack. Deception really is the key. Alois' favourite serve is the High Toss Pendulum serve.
Cheers,
Jeff.
Guyzz your chanel is
amazing but plzz can u make a video on backhand sidespin service or back hand confusing service .......
Subscribed. Liked. ✌
I really like the side- and topspin serve of the reverse pendulum. It has gotten me many points! I really hope this would be a good variation to make sometimes.
Great video as always! =)
Can you do a little tutorial for getting better at backhand loops and smashes? I seem to never find the table when I get a high ball to my backhand...
really great serve! Thanks a lot!
I'm glad you've found it now! Make sure you subscribe and check out our website.
Hi Alois Rosario from pingskills. You know, for us right hand users, its difficult to imitate your great moves there, so i have a suggestion! Is it possible to use the mirror effect on the video your posting? It would give us the vision of yourself using a right hand. Thankyou! :)
The trick is to use different serves that look exactly the same. You can spin the ball almost any direction with the starting motion. It is what you do at the end that determines what it will do.
I love table tennis! Its such a fun sport. Shame though that its not so practical needing a special table and all.
Just for fun you can use any table. A good option is to find a table tennis club near you.
Thank you!Thank you!!!!!I KILING WITH THIS!!!
Can you make a video on serves that look similar but spin in different ways to trick the opponent, would be very helpful :)
Hey guys, could you please make a video on ma long's backhand loop?
Please I am begging you!! I am going to division 4 and my coach is sick.
Yu guys are so inspiring you were the reason I started playing table tennis.
By the way Jeff is sick with his backhand against backspin!!
Alois is the King of service!!
please do it!! You guys are wicked!! please don't let me down I am just 10!!
Hi Bonnie Ip,
Thanks for the kind words! With regards to Ma Long's backhand loop, it is just the same as any other backhand loop in principle but he just executes it extremely well. So watch our video on the backhand topspin (you can find it on our channel or on our website) and listen to Alois explain the main points. This will be the same for Ma Long, it's just he has practiced it millions of times!
You're welcome.
Thanks! If you want some videos made the best way is to ask a question on our website under "Ask the Coach". Then our premium members vote for which questions we film a video response for.
We do have a lesson on the backhand loop on our website. Take a look! For the backhand smash we really recommend moving around and playing a forehand smash, it's a much easier and safer shot.
Good luck with your Table Tennis.
you need a good racquet for the spin goes well ?
Sir good videos sir plz show them in slow motions also
Great suggestion. We have been using slow motions in a lot of our videos. You can see them all at PingSkills.com
i do this serve with the penhold grip, it is much easier as a penhold player.
I play table tennis a lot and that's was quite helpful thx
You're welcome. I'm glad it helped.
Sir Marcus Kingy
why didn't i find this channel before !
Hi Yuri, here in Australia we call it a bat. :)
Have you guys uploaded any video related to the timo boll's serve (the reverse topspin sidespin serve) if yes please give me the link to it .
Not concentrating on Timo's exact technique sorry.
please make a tutorial for Reverse Topspin Sidespin Serve similar to that of Timo Boll
We have a video on that for our premium members. Here's a list of must learn serves you might like to take a look at: www.pingskills.com/tutorials/must-learn-serves
i like your plays
I will be grateful if you teach yoshimuras serve
Hello
You said it's easier to do a sidespin or a topspin reverse pendulum serve than a reverse backspin serve. How do you do the topspin serve in that position? A topspin serve has to brush the ball from "above" and not from below right? How do you generate a topspin from a ball by brushing it from below?
It's really a topspin and sidespin serve that we are talking about and to add some topspin you can brush over the top of the ball as you mentioned, but you can also brush up the back of the ball which is what happens with this serve a lot.

hay can u help me how to select a good bat. i am a above average player. or can u suggest me some bats.
thank you very much
We actually have an entire course called Serving Secrets Revealed that is available on our website. In this course we cover this.
The key to deceiving your opponent is having subtle variations of spin with similar actions.
Thank you ping skills
sir, i just wanted to know how to return a sidespin serve effectively.
Thanks in advance
Thanks Coach 😀
Make a video on how to take smashes
+irso soj We already have :) Go to the PIngSkills website and then Table Tennis Lessons -> Strokes & Techniques and look for the "Lob". Enjoy!
Hey Pingskills! I was wondering why so many people use the SH grip instead of the PH (RPB). Even in China, Japan, and Korea, the SH is the most popular. I'm aware of the differences, pros, and cons, and I feel like it'd make sense that the ratio of SH to RPB would be around 1:1, but, obviously, it's not. Is it because the SH is just more popular and therefore people are more comfortable using it or is the SH considered by most to be the better of the two?
Great question. I think it's easier to play both forehand and backhand initially with the shakehand grip. I don't think one is better than the other and you can see that have been many world number 1's who use the penhold grip.
On this serve, I find it helps to make sure your arm is moving down with the ball. For me at least, the first time I tried this serve, I kind of went from down to up, disastrous!
Good guy Alois!
Just concentrate on the basics. Once you've got that down you can start to vary it to suit yourself.
I agree... but what would that do?
If I serve with backspin and it hits once on my opponent's side, then returns to my side on it's own, is play still on, or did my opponent lose the point for not hitting it?
wonder ful
That's like saying sliders, curves and sinkers are useless in baseball; you can control the fastball but that isn't enough, those pitches are an extra help to surprise the opponent.
I will try it tomorrow.
What bat do use? And what do you glue it on with?
At the moment we both use the PingSkills Touch with Xiom Vega Pro. Tenergy 05 is another fast rubber that we both like. We just glue it on with a water based table tennis glue.
thanks ive learned a good spin serve :-D
You're most welcome xxpure58
Im using an artengo mini bat, i feel really comfortable but i dont think im getting the spin i need, what should i switch to, that doesnt have much power yet lots of spin? please reply
Please I play with donic baracuda in the fh should I change the rubber and put the Chinese rubber or not answer me please
I say, I made a reversed pendulum serve once, it got a very weird sidespin with a topspin effect. Is it because of the rubber?
Thanks for the video,
Question for you man, i have a pretty agressive style of play and i am looking for a control paddle i was thinking to purchase the DHS hurricane x h001 penhold, hurricane II, Hurricane I, killerspin jet 600, or killerspin kido 5artg premium? Any advice in which paddle will be better for control overall? Thank you
I was told it's like flipping a Frisbee. But I'm having trouble clearing the net, any advice?
Hi *****, you can think of it like flicking a frisbee. To get the ball over the net try hitting the ball slightly higher, and try aiming closer to you for the first bounce. This will get the ball moving down quicker and hence bouncing up higher. Give that a try and let me know how it goes.
Correct, the serve that hit the net is a let.
hey Alois, I don't really think the serve needs to be called, Reverse Pendulum "Backspin" Serve, when it only needs to be called "Reverse Pendulum Serve. Although the angle of the racket is similar to the original Pendulum Backspin serve, this serve generates more sidespin, and the usual output of the process is really sidespin. I haven't seen the ball spin backspin yet because when the ball is rotated by the serve, it only generates side, even if you imagine it.
It's torn jeans from the iMovie program.
Can you guys show us how to do the Kenta Matsudaira serve Please?
+Dennern Norsk Gaming! I'm guessing you mean his tomahawk serve. We show this in our Serving Secrets course which is available to our premium members through the PingSkills website. Take a look and even if you don't become a premium member sign up for free and get our weekly tips email :)
:)
Very cool
When doing this serve, I try to toss the ball close to my body so that I don't have to move my elbow too far to the side. It helps but sometimes the ball hits my jaw after the toss :( I notice that some top players solve this problem by throwing the ball into their body, which is borderline legal (or illegal). Any tips?
Could you please tell which song did you use for this video? Thanks in advance!!
I've been experimenting with the backspin pendulum and reverse pendulum serves but i can't get any type of consistency in the spin or the placement of the ball, any ideas?
+Ping skills what is the name of the bat and the website of the bat that you used in this video. I have an upcoming competition and my bat just spoiled PLEASE help me out thx a lot
It's the PingSkills Touch - you can get it at www.pingskills.com/table-tennis-store/custom-bats.php
Good luck at the upcoming competition.
