A type of topspin serve hit with a combination of topspin and sidespin. The ball not only takes a high bounce, it also flies in a direction opposite of what one would normally expect it to. 4, record 1, English, - American%20twist%20serve
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
An exageration of the topspin serve turns the service into a kick service or "American twist". A right-hander's American twist serve puts left-to-right spin on the ball. Such a serve can present difficulties for the receiver, particularly on grass where the bounce could be tricky. 4, record 1, English, - American%20twist%20serve
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The "kick serve" is also called the "kicker". It became known as the "american twist" or "american twist serve" in the first Davis Cup match in 1900 when the finalists, Holcombe Ward, a Harvard man, and his college friend, Dwight Davis, used the stroke they had developed to beat their English opponents. 7, record 1, English, - American%20twist%20serve
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT
If the kick serve is correctly delivered it can often be followed in so as to make your next shot the volley you might have tried on a successful power serve ... Try to mix the angle of [your] serves and watch for weaknesses in your opponent, e.g., a backhand to a high-kicking serve is not easily played at club standard. 6, record 1, English, - American%20twist%20serve

Issue du courant pacifiste et communautaire de l'anabaptisme du XVIe siècle, la secte des huttériens(ou huttérites) [...] est restée fidèle [...] à son idéal religieux primitif, [...] à sa structure initiale, ainsi qu'au dialecte et même aux costume de son milieu original. Elle fut fondée [...] par un pasteur anabaptiste tyrolien, Jakob Hutter, torturé et brûlé comme hérétique en 1536. Le mouvement huttérien groupait alors des milliers de frères répartis dans des fermes communautaires [...]. Après l'écrasement de l'anabaptisme militaire à Münster en 1535, les huttériens s’installèrent à Austerlitz [...]. Au début de la Première Guerre mondiale, [...] ils émigrèrent en grande partie au Canada. 1, record 3, French, - hutt%C3%A9rien
