I have watched it.
The problem of all your services is: your arm must go to the ball so you could throw the ball vertically. If the ball goes to your arm, it is impossible to throw the ball +/- vertically and all your services are illegal. |

It's a thing in Vietnam that many people serve illegally and are super proud with that. I have had a time on the receiving end of those services and it does help to improve my receiving quite a bit.

Most
of these serves are insanely illegal !!! Only the tomahawk serves come
even close to being thrown vertically. Look at this single sequence
and see that the ball is thrown further horizontally than vertically!
No attempt is made to throw the ball up but all the effort goes into
throwing the ball backwards into the body. Look how hidden the ball is
at contact! 1. The hand is already in motion. Note how close to the centre line it starts. 2. The ball is at the TOP of its trajectory. Note how close to the edge of the table it is. 3. I had to extend the picture to the left to accommodate the point of contact (actually the bat has not yet hit the ball). Note the ball is behind the player's right shoulder. Note the serving arm has not been removed. FWIW, I don't think there's any "fun!!!" in serving illegally, which is obviously what you do given you show us how you do this in match play.

I'm Vietnamese, I can confirm it's true and very embarassing. My serves are legal and I'm often at a serious disadvantage when playing those guys in tournaments. The serve rules are only applied in professional tournaments, sometimes loosely. In non-pro tournaments, the umpires often don't call illegal serves because there are too many people doing it and they will make a fuss everytime an umpire or the opponent calls their serve. Very ugly yet they are proud of it because they are often the winner due to the serve.

Good variety of serves, quite informative. Although as others have pointed out, the legality of the serves would raise a fuss for many people. I would probably call you out on it if I were to play you, most especially not being able to see the point of contact.
The trajectory of one particular serve that Tassie52 pointed out above is quite ridiculous though. I'm looking at the tomahawk serve also and even then, you toss it towards you. Overall, great serves. Although without the hiding of service and the non-vertical throw, they would probably render them mediocre with not much deception or spin (like my serves).

Everyone is harping on the hidden serves and horizontal ball tosses, but if everyone else is doing it, I don't see any dishonor in joining them. I too hide my serves if I think the opponent is hiding them blatantly. Just treat it as if you're playing a retro version of table tennis with hidden serves before all the ITTF rule changes

The problem is.....TT is an homologated sport (like Walter Sobchak said in "the big Lebowski" about bowling) and there are rules. If you don't respect rules, then, why not beginning the point by a straight smash instead of a serve for instance. Also it is better to penalize people who do irregular serves than advice people who serve regular doing irregular ones. The same in bike competition for instance : would you advice people to take doping product ?
