What grip should I use for serving?
Also what grip should I use for a topspin second serve?
Answers:
You should use the same grip for both- its called the 'chopper' grip. Imagine you are going to use the frame of your racket as a hammer as hold the grip how you would a hammer.
It will feel strange at first & you may find it unsuccessful but stick at it & the power increase in your serve will be very noticable.
Use the same for a topspin serve, you just need to place the ball up in a different place- it should be slightly behind you & towards your left shoulder (assuming you are right handed).
Hope this helps but it is a bit hard to explain. Go to your local libary & look for a coaching book, they will have good diagramms to help you
