How does Mizutani contact the ball so swiftly and with such touch, like that and let it manage to spin back after the 2nd bounce!? I tried countless times even today, and the serve bounces slower on the opponents side, which is the usual characteristics of a backspin serve, but to the point where it spins back after the 2nd bounce? Never done that in my life!

Excellent serve of his, definitely disorientating for his oppenent as someone said! :D

Sorry guys, what do you call a "ghost serve"? Thank you for explaining it to me.

Ghost serve is a serve that uses back spin.
Ghost serve enables the ball to spin back towards the net once it hits the opponent side of the table.
Ma Lin, Jun Mizutani and Liu Guoliang(On news) is famous for that serve.
Check it out on youtube....!

Hi guys, this might be slightly off topic but any advice on keeping the serve short? i seem to be able to generate some sort of spin, but they tend to be long.

Try not to enphasize to much contact. Brush the ball softy on contact. Don't worry to much about the spin. Get the ball low and two bounces. Master that then build up the spin. Hope this helps. Any more questions on the serve just throw me some :)

No worries! Do you have a video camera, upload your serves to youtube and embed the video here, would be more than happy to give lots of tips :)
