The chiquita is one of the reasons why many pros have deadly long serves. ML, FZD and even Fang Bo have very good long serve which hit the baseline most of the times that too with some bounce on it. In my opinion, many pros combine gut feeling and agile footwork to get to the ball in FH side. I remember watching an old video where LGL was not too happy with ZJK trying to chiquita all short FH serves. Instead LGL was suggesting to do deception FH flicks quite like what ML uses many a times ( looks like push but at the very end flick ).

That's good to have many different receiving skills. It's a pity that the new balls force the people using BH flicks to return FH short balls.
