This is EXACTLY what I am working on atm and so helpful. Been throwing away point after point through double faulting. First it goes long, then I bail, spin out and it’s into the net. More of a cut than a kick. Very disheartening. This is gold Nik and thanks to Felipe for agreeing to have all this on video. Great stuff guys, will be practising it asap.
Coach Nick has one of the most aesthetically pleasing serves I've ever seen.
Thank you Milan 🫶
You can save months of self learning if you pay attention to this class. Thanks for sharing
🙏
The incredible challenge of changing muscle memory and when you have to change not only one but a few points of the progression and movement.
Very tough task for both Nik and Phillipe.
Great video.

I love this series! Thank you for allowing us to follow this journey with you and Felipe.
💯
Felipe, Nick, I think what Felipe is describing regarding seeing the ball is 2 things: 1) eye dominance, assuming he is right eye dominant and 2) ball tracking.
For eye dominance, I'm not going to go much into it, I don't want my man Coach Simon saying this theory and that coach are incorrect 😅. Fact is, for most,it is easier to track as a right eye dominant a bh, I believe that's why Felipe can see the ball better.
For the ball tracking, there's a video from almost a year to the date from RacquetFlex named the "Quiet eye method". In there they go into detail on how the eyes and tracking work and they explain that in reality, in high speed balls, you track and see the ball until a certain moment and then your brain, eye, muscle memory, etc, then look at where they will hit the ball, assuming a trajectory of it, but not necessarily because it is tracking it "frame by frame".
Nick does mention to Felipe that the last millisecond you indeed don't track it behind the speed, it does feel to me that there's more to that.
I suggest to just watch the video and see what you understand and if it makes sense to you or not; it did make a lot of sense to me. They don't post many videos but they are all very good quality.✌️

Nice Nick & Philipé . I call the type of slice Philipé was playing ‘The Anti-Slice.’ 😂
Kick serve is the toughest serve in my opinion. This is a great breakdown on kick.
Omg.. Just when I thought I had seen it all on kickserves, Nick and Felipe manage to put up this amazing video. Great explanations of what to do and what NOT to do. Especially on the eye tracking. Great camera angles. Already seeing some improvements after a short serving session today. Thank you so much for sharing - makes me want to fly to Nick and get the same treatment! :-)
Great video Nick ! The side view and back view trully help a lot. Great explanations of what to do and to avoid !!! I will try that at my next training session.
What an awesome lesson. Best I’ve seen of the kick serve. I feel like I’m similar to Felipe, so your lessons are right in my wheelhouse. An ordinary guy just trying to get better and enjoying the game. Thanks so much Nick.
🙏
A good cue that works for me to achieve better "staying sideways" for kick serve: get the feel of sending the ball over the left shoulder, same to some "no-look" CC passing shots from close to the net, if you get what I mean. Makes wonders
Thank you Nick, great lesson!
Really love this series. So helpful. Thanks
🙏
At 6:10, Nick: "If I go like this, this takes the kick out", and then gets a higher kick than I have in my entire life. :)
Great lesson Nik
Wait! did I see right at 2:50 Nick stopping an out ball with his racquet? Where was the red "X" with that noise he puts there? 😂😂
Haha I deserve the ❌
The content in this video really rounds out the content from the many other videos. 1) The detailed breakdown of the proper target in the box. 2) The effect of shoulder turn negating the kick effect. 3) The difference between standing still while simulating the abbreviated arm action versus the full swing. Plus lots of other nuances.
This one should be put into the the Smithsonian for future generations!
🙏
Thanks Nick, I struggle with getting enough kick on my serve so this definitely helps, I'll give it a shot next time on court.
💯
Regarding not watching the ball when serving, this is a problem for me I addressed a couple of months ago. It only happened on my kick serve and I was framing and sometimes missing the ball entirely.
I still naturally go back into my old habit but at least I know what the issue is and its kind of nice to see other players doing the same thing
gentlemen. this might be the best serving lesson in the history book.
🫶
Agree
Thank you so much for the video. I took so many lessons on my kick serve, but always lacked the clearance for a reliable second serve. Tried this exercise this afternoon, and it work right away, with some of balls hitting the fence on the second bounce.
💯
@@IntuitiveTennis quick question: how much is the high bounce from spin vs. gravity? Tried some more kick serve this morning with old balls in cold/damp condition, and the balls did not bounce nearly as high. (Still helpful as a reliable 2nd shot for sure). Thanks!
Nick , you're so good & this is most difficult serve in tennis , but you made it so easy(your way of teaching) Thx a lot.Why not you start 7days challenge class on line.
Prince
well explained
At over 55 I have good kick serve. I achieve this by moving my right foot around and back (compared to flat/ slice) before I start. This puts me more side on and makes the correct swing path easier to achieve and more natural. It also means I don’t have to contort my body to get under the ball as it is just automatically in the right place. It is simple and it is really reliable.
Nick have you never watched visually impaired tennis. You can play tennis blind! World champions for visually impaired tennis is in Italy this year! Tennis for all😊
No

@@IntuitiveTennis this match was a regional competition. It has 2 different sight classification playing again each other. You get 1-3 bounces of the ball depending on how much vision you have.
Thank you for taking an interest, it may inspire others who have or acquire visual loss.
A lot of the visually impaired GB team are ranked. It’s played all over the world. Any question please feel free to ask. Any feedback on how to improve my technique will be very grateful received. I’m the hat wearer 🙏

It's nice to see how a player struggles and what a real lesson looks like. On the other hand it's a bit too long with too many asides and tangents. Also, a trick to help the player stay sideways is to tuck the left arm longer and further back at contact
Ladies and gentlemen!
If you truly watch and listen to this and the other videos of N. A. you will learn. Become less intellectually arrogant, ignorant and narrow minded. You will see how little you know and how much he knows. He has studied the game deeply and honestly. Become aware, that he sacrifices much of his LIFE to give us FREE and TRUE information. We should be grateful that he does it. I certainly am. Thank you a lot, Nikola (Tesla)!
🫶 Danke Mark
I am 5.5 player. A few years ago I played tournament against the guy who had unbelievable kick serve. The balls just bounced close to the line and flayed high and out at AD point and it was almost impossible to reach out and hit back... Some times later I saw the same guy playing doubles in clubs league against 2 guys who used to be top junior playes and they had exactly the same problem with his serve.. Watching Djokovic against Alcatraz I also noticed that a few times he also.had problem with his kick serve... I practiced a lot improveing my kick serve but so far I am really far from reaching the level that would give me some easy points. in my game.
20:00 This would've been a good chance to explain cross-eyed dominant forehands vs. regular-eyed dominant forehands, which is what Felipe probably has
@14:50, another thing that could be happening is autopilot. In pole vault, certain movements were really difficult to practice because I'd have a clear memory up until that movement, and a clear memory immediately afterwards, but right in that moment my subconscious would take over and I'd "blank out" and lose all conscious awareness of what my body was doing in that instant. (For context, I pole vaulted for 21 years)
if I have the money, and to fly, I might consider getting a 10 day lessons just to see if I can learn new things. but i'm not sure since i live in CA
The sound of the ball on the racket is much thicker than what I hear on my kick. I do seem to “frame” a lot. Consequently my kick doesn’t have much pace. Exactly how/where should the racket strings contact the ball?
nice one. what city are you guys in, please?
how can someone get into such private training? I'm having issues transitioning to 4.5 level.
Please take the add side for the kick side insteaded ?
He might be right eye dominant which would explain his problem seeing the ball on the forehand side especially in a closed stance forehand. Easy fix would be to keep an open or semi-open stance forehand.

Nick could it be that Felipe is right eye dominant and that is why he is losing the ball on FHs when in closed stance? And why he is seeing it without a problem on his BH...
ED is irrelevant ua-cam.com/video/64y-Fa3Q8vQ/v-deo.htmlsi=_ngdKpxf5fD14C93
19:24
Something tells me he used to tell his Mom he has a fever, headache and a weird eyes burning sensation just to skip school 😂.
His grip is slightly tight
Is that Felipe's Supra?
i was bouta ask the same thing🤣
His left arm is cartwheeling him too much, this momentum forces him to open him up and rotate his chest, his left arm should finish on the right side of his body to prevent this. He has clearly picked this up from his flat serve and brought it over to the kick serve.
Those pickle ball lines are awful! There were not there before on this court.
Wait! did I see right at 2:50 Nick stopping an out ball with his racquet? Where was the red "X" with that noise he puts there? 😂😂
