Answer 1

tilt the raquitte when u hit the ball   example   / = back spin

Answer 2

Just remember when you want it to spin, you have to "chop" at the ball and not hit it solidly.  You'll either "roll" up and over the top of the ball as you hit it or you will "slice" down at it, depending on whether you want it to have a topspin or a backspin.  Backspin was always my favorite since it really causes the ball to hit and bounce in a total different direction than the opponent expects.  It really throws them off their balance.  

Expert Village has a beginner tennis series of videos that include one on Spinserves.  Hope this helps.

Answer 8

you have to chop into it like you are cutting into something with an axe.  only enough of the racket should be exposed towards the ball as to push it forward.   It really involves more experimentation that anything else.
