when it comes to the kick serve you have to stay more sideways again take a look at Ben Shelton one of the greatest servers in the world and I'm not singling him out to take a look at any kick serve you're going to see a position of the upper body at the moment of contact that's to the side you're going to see the tip of the shoes to the side the body has to stay sideways naturally when the ball is thrown in front of the court and the body is slightly leaning forward contact is going to be established right on top of the head and from there we have better feel for the ball and more importantly we have more power and there are less chances of deceleration and making frustrating double faults
