Yan An serve - can you read it?

Pretty interesting video of Yan An serving. I could only barely read the serve in slow motion.

Skip to 3:05 to see the sidetopspin vs sideunderspin comparison.

Most rewarding tactics for serving. JO Waldner was an innovator of the tactics.

I have been training a very similar serve with side and under spin and was never happy about having to hit the ball quite high. I am happy now.......................but nowhere near as good as Yan An.

very subtle - for topspin he contacts more to the back of the ball meaning late timing while underspin is early contact to brush the bottom of the ball, given the vertical drop

I still can't get good service
how to start, ask for advice?

Yes, and even with sidetopspin he shows the flatter racket angle first before changing it subtly to contact the back of the ball. Yikes!
