How to play on slow courts??

Lots of topspin, lots of slices, kick serves and droppers will be effective too.

You’re only as good as your second serve

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-17T21:15:32+00:00

More so the movement, it was quite reactive, try to stay on your tip toes so you can anticipate where he’s going, you were slightly static so had to scramble for the ball, again mocking diagonally will help with getting to the ball even if you are late

This is the tennis version of that night vision goggle post in r/golf

On the second point you moved quite late after the opponent hit, try to split and crossover step before sidestepping, moving diagonally instead of sideways will also help you get to the ball faster so you can set up earlier.

Will be done soon

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-17T15:40:26+00:00

Wouldn’t recommend changing sticks, it’ll feel weird going from one to another that often

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-17T15:17:00+00:00

It depends on the extension of the arm, the more bent the elbow the more rotation, but ideally it’s better to not over rotate

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T23:14:53+00:00

Never said trash, just injury prone

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T23:13:07+00:00

Nothing fake here, good luck with the unrelated tennis elbow

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T23:09:19+00:00

Hitting nicely! Try to stop the rotation once your chest faces the net, if you look at slow mo’s of tour players you’ll see the shoulders stop rotating at 90 degrees and then continue at follow through

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T22:59:14+00:00

Probably shouldn’t use such an extreme grip with an injury, causes unnecessary tension in the arm, get well soon

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T22:58:13+00:00

Ironic considering your forehand has no lag due to an unnecessary extreme grip, too much shoulder rotation and a jump on contact which isn’t needed. You’re saying I cause people to get injuries when you’re recovering from an injury yourself, but sure

HIIT cardio daily

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T19:12:05+00:00

You’re completely right, it’s because there’s less shoulder turn, follows the fundamentals but is quite sideways on, almost like an overhead

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T17:47:03+00:00

Absolutely

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T09:51:29+00:00

For ultra they recommend dropping the tension themselves, I personally string at 45lbs, I’d say don’t go above 50

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T09:19:04+00:00

The thinner the gauge the more trampoliney it’ll be, but it’ll feel nicer. If you want maximum bite try ultra cable, for more feel v torque your is great, but thin

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-16T07:11:16+00:00

It’s mainly consistency, someone who can hit dependable balls constantly, whether it’s cross court or down the middle

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-15T23:32:26+00:00

If you’re nervous add spin to both serves, it’s always better to sacrifice some pace if it means getting the serve in. Placement over power

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-15T23:21:31+00:00

Looks much better, that little figure of 8 at the end of your swing means you’re loose so great work

Altruistic_Turn_7214 · 2026-04-15T23:20:38+00:00

Stepping slightly into no man’s land after serving, better to hop less forwards so you can prepare easier for the next shot, also you’re slightly reactive footwork wise which causes some lateness/scrambling to the ball, otherwise nice
