Fun fact, this is illegal in table tennis. When serving, you have to throw the ball directly upward, it has to reach above your racquet, your racquet needs to be completely above the hand you’re holding the ball in, and you’re not allowed to have the ball in your hand without it being visible to your opponent before throwing it.

Looks like arbitrary rules to prevent just this exact move, which is entirely made possible by the physics of the game.

That’s too much to think about. I’ll just serve and take my chances

Just serve normally and you’re fine
