Thanks for showing where the bat starts good tip cheers
This reverse pendulum serve tutorial is a game-changer! The breakdown of techniques and tips makes it so much easier to understand and apply. Thanks for the great insights!
I’m glad you found it useful. Keep an eye out for part 2, looking at 2 different spins.
One of the better tutorials I've seen....you've captured the nuances of this serve.
Another video another masterpiece
Good video like a follow up showing backspin, sidespin and side top
Very detailed explaination. I was lucky to master fzd reverse pendulum serve but I still learnt a lot from this video.
Absolutely the best reverse pendulum tutorial, IMO!

Thanks for doing this. Very helpful as usual
Thank you Greg! Fabolous!
Very good, very detailed ! Merci 😊
Thanks for making these videos. There are great and I always learn something new.
Great video, great explanation.
Excellent detailed tutorial! Can't wait to give it a try. Thank you, Craig!
Best explanation of this serve so far, thank you very much.
Incredible... Liquid gold! I've been practicing the serve experimenting for a couple of years analysing my own mistakes to improve the serve and here is Craig's explanation... 12 minutes i wish i had few years ago.
Some great advice on this serve Craig
To the point and informative 👍
Thanks, master !
Thank you. I have had trouble learning this. Does not help the arthritis in my hands but the way to practice it may just be what I was needing to get better at it! Great Video!
Thank you. I practice serves 2-3 times a week. Usually a box for back-spin pendulum, a box for top-spin pendulum and a box to attempt reverse back-spin, which is a difficult beast.
Tried to apply your suggestions today.
I was aware about grip but struggled to take the bat back after serve, tried to figure a bit more relaxed grip still allowing me to ungrip on time and moved contact point to the side instead of front. Serves became much snappier. I was still able to make them half-long with 2nd bonce on the back-line but the ball became faster and spinnier.
Still mostly side and side-top and no consistent back-spin, maybe a subtle one 1 of 10 balls.
I slowed down with the last dozen of balls, tried this and that and finally I felt how to produce back spin. Still lots of practice is needed but finally I began feeling it after this video.
Cheers.
Excellent work! These things take time, 1% improvements here and there. By the end of the year, the serve becomes 30-40% better, that’s a significant improvement (delayed gratification)!
Look forward to learning this and trying it against my coach! :)
Good tips.
Thanks
Nice tips, saved
Videos like these are the only coaching I can get
I’m glad I can help 🙂
You deserve a lot more subs. These tutorials are top notch!!! Much respect couch 💪🏓
Hopefully we’ll get there, spread the word 🗣️🙂
That's whassup!! Precious tips!!!
Nice tips, mr Craig
Hello Craig. Could you please do a follow up looking at spin varitions (backspin - topspin) and placement. Thank you.
Possible to do, yes
i second this. especially what strategy or which spin variations/ball placements go well together
Outstanding...again!
Wish I could come to your club.
Thanks a lot Craig for all your advises about services. I'm a french player and follow up you from several months. It helps me a lot to improve my services efficiency.
Thanks for following
Super!
Excellent
Very good lesson with a lot of explanations !
Thanks you very much
You are welcome!
Amazing tutorial!
Thank you 🤩
Amazing
Awesome ❤🎉😂
Thanks
Thank you so much 😃
Man this had me the last 2 weeks. Now Im able to throw nice and topsidespin it. Hope I can learn the BS also as snick is such a nice word I didn't know before.

When we play more intermediate/advanced players, how can we disguise between the Regular Pendulum and the Reverse Pendulum... That is a key input which would have been the cherry on top of this excellent video tutorial!
Hmm, good question. Possible to do but not something I use very often. Instead, I think it’s better to focus on variety with the techniques. For example, can you serve lots of different spins with the reverse pendulum? If you can, then you don’t need to disguise things between pendulum to reverse pendulum.
The goal is not to disguise different serve but to disguise different spin and placement
Where should be the point of contact on the racket and the ball?
OMG X 100 thank you for explaining!!! I was wondering why my RP serve all side top and none of them are side under !!! 🙏
You’re very welcome
Thank you Craig. Great video. Question on ball toss position and impact point on paddle and which point of body? On video looks as you are slightly bending forward..the ball is tossed close to your right side under armpit and point of ball and paddle first brush is right side of rib case. Another question is brush underside of ball ? Thank you.
Yes, the contact is slightly to the right of my body. I like to contact the underside of the ball yes, I find it slows the ball down, which gives me more control and more opportunity to disguise the ball
Thank you for taking the time to reply. Much appreciated.
Woooo let's go
Just started watching I play in a group of doubles only any tips on double playing would be helpful?
It’s been on my list for a while. Requires a bit of planning but I will do it at some point.
I managed to hit nice shots but a lot of times I miss the ball how to practice not missing the ball and how high should I toss the ball?

@@TheTableTennisServiceGuycan you change position with Adram Bobrow please^^
Adam has done an incredible job. If I could get anywhere near his following, life would be pretty sweet 👌
Hi Craig. Great video
Re bonus tip.
Is it legal to hide the bat just before ball toss in a match or is this just for starting out with practice ?
Cheers
Baz 😊🏓
You can legally conceal the bat, yes 👍
@@TheTableTennisServiceGuy ok thanks Craig. 😊🏓
What do you do differently to make the ball go deep?
Let it drop as low as you can and hit the ball as close to the white line as possible 👌
What are pros/cons of the reverse pendulum serve compared to the backhand serve?
Con: It’s awkward and tricky skill to develop.
Pro: It’s easier to conceal your bat (so they don’t see angles etc)
Pro: It’s possible to change into other techniques from that position
There are individual things to take into account. Some people find it easier to serve reverse pendulum and can create more spin. That makes it a pro for them.
Others find it very difficult, that’s makes it a con for them.
Hi Craig, is it possible to show me where I can get your free service guide? I don't have Instagram 🙊 I'm looking to becoming a coach myself, so all help is more than welcome!
It’s linked on my website too thettserviceguy.com
Thanks, that's very helpful. I'll keep following your content, it's really 👌.
Can we add top spin to it?
It's the easiest variation. Just brush on the side instead of underneath
In doubles pls
Hello fellow doubles fan! For doubles you could turn more to face the table rather than side-on.
A word of caution though, any reverse spin in doubles is going to pull the receive back towards you, not to your partner, unless you are lefty, or they are.
I don’t have an example handy of a pro doing this serve in doubles, but in the Day 4 top points of Singapore Smash 2024 video you can see Bernadette Szocs use a tomahawk serve to pull the ball towards her lefty partner.
Which racket do u use
Listed in the description
Craig, why don't you lower the angle of your wrist and let the handle go under your wrist, not above? It adds more freedom to the movement.
I find this incredibly awkward and almost impossible to create topspin with the handle under my wrist
We want to have pendulum service and its variation

I know I'm in a minority here but have you any suggestions for having to serve one handed. Due to a m/cycle accident I have to hold the ball and bat with just my right hand which limits my range of serves. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I would say that the most common thing I see, is the pendulum serve. Pinch the bat with index finger and thumb, then you can use the 3 fingers to hold the ball. If you throw the ball slightly higher, that’ll give you a little more time to get your fingers back on the handle.
Then, you can use all the potential varieties that come with the pendulum serve. I’ve done a tutorial on this too, maybe worth having a look.
Perhaps possible with the backhand serve too but you would have to release the ball out the back of your fingers.
Good luck 👍
@@TheTableTennisServiceGuy Thank you for your help. I shall work on the advice you have given. Best wishes, Les

3:53 minor typo ;)
You spotted the deliberate mistake 😂😳🙄
@@TheTableTennisServiceGuy 🤣
Plz correct the spelling of technique. There should be no "m."
I’ve just seen that, a typo but once it’s uploaded, it’s done. I cannot edit it 😞
It looks completely different when Fan Zhendong or Timo Boll do this serve... Yours looks a bit awkward. 😵
A tutorial video about reverse pendulum but with only the easiest back/side spin variant and not even mentioning the top/side version?
Why you do this incomplete guide, a serve without different spin variations is a one-trick pony and not that usefull in advanced play.
😂😂😂
@@TheTableTennisServiceGuy guess u cant handle critique very well, maybe coz u cant do the side/topspin version i guess ? I mean else u woulda included it here right.
I did actually misread your comment. I read ‘you’re a one trick pony’ but yes, it was my choice not to include the variations of spin. I chose to focus on the technique.
@@TheTableTennisServiceGuy its my bread and butter serve and many cant read it too well, but they really get sweating when i vary some top spin in as well, makes them push my backspins in the net too, especially when i do both versions fast/long deep in their backhand so they have decide/react fast it creates so much pressure
So slow
What’s slow?
