Kick the Back Leg on the Serve by Conan Lorenzo The coaches and I are always talking about the serve. That’s right! The one stroke in the game where there are few variables compared to all the other shots. After our players understand the fundamentals of the serve with the stance, toss and correct swing motion, we then like to move on to getting more power with the shot. To increase the pop in one’s serve, (speaking of a right handed player) I like to encourage my students to incorporate more right hip action and extension with the right arm, up and forward to the ball thus resulting in a huge back leg kick after striking the ball! Tennis Tip To make it easy, just remember to always land on the left foot into the court with the back leg kicking out behind you. This will guarantee a great pop to the serve and commit oneself to moving forward into the court. Have fun with it and enjoy the extra mph you will see with the added leg kick! Conan is the Director of Tennis at the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club. He is a Master Racquet Stringer and a USTA Certifi ed High Performance Coach "The Green Tennis Machine was exactly what I needed for my business. Not only am I saving money on balls, but I also feel great about helping the environment. This machine is amazing. Why didn't anyone think of this before? I am getting 4 to 5 times the life of my regular balls, and I have more money to spend in other areas. I use my new recycled balls for my clinic carts and my customers are completely satisfied with my new bouncing balls. I haven't bought a new case of teaching balls since I bought the machine - hats off to the inventors of the Green Machine.” - John Letts wner Arroyo Seco Racquet Club South Pasade, CA www.rebounces.com | 870.204.5171 | info@rebounces.com Introducing the Green Tennis Machine - The fi rst bulk re-pressurization system designed specifi cally for tennis professionals.
