The Slam Dunk overhead or jumped tennis overhead smash introduced by Pete Sampras

To execute this kind of overhead smash you need to be a top athlete:

- Great vertical jump

- Perfect timing

- Serious power

- Great co-ordinations

Regular players will either not dare to try it or will often miss-time the jump and come either too short or too fast down.

The ability to keep your body held up in space (airtime 'Michael Jordan' remember?) is just a sign of the tremendous leg power an athlete has.

Pete demonstrates it in a high caliber fashion or he would not have been called 'Pistol Pete'!
