Federer Serve - Get It Smooth

Federer Serve Tips & More - Sign In Below

Whether it's the federer kick serve or his normal delivery, it's a thing of unrivalled beauty.

It’s not the quickest (Andy Roddick), but it is the best (maybe the best of all time).

And if you can make this shot “work its stuff” for you then things become so much easier.

Want to get that smooth, fluid, relaxed style of the Swiss Master?

One of the best tennis service tips I’ve seen to help you get that smooth Fed motion is to swing a towel.

Roger makes the service look so easy, almost effortless and yet so effective and has been one of the major factors behind his success at the Grand Slams Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon & US Open.

One of the big problems however for the club player who wants to get a quicker serve is that they end up with a jerky action that is too mechanical and therefore less efficient.

The parts of the body don’t work together and the end result is breaks and stops in the action that kils the power.

So, back to the towel.

Tie a knot in one end of a beach towel (to be the racket head) and you can now perform your service action by grabbing the other end.

The knot will cause the towel to drop down when you reach the top of your action (the contact point) which allows you to carry on forwards.

The trick here is not to stop when you finish a service motion but to carry on straight into the next serve without a break.

If you are on the right lines the towel should not touch any part of your body and you should begin to feel the effortless motion that all great servers like Pete Sampras, Roger and Boris Becker etc had.

So go and grab those beach towels (not for a vacation) but for your soon to be “killer” serve!!
