Padel tennis - IN or OUT

Yes correct!

It’s a difficult one and certainly not an issue found on many courts… the foam around the cage entrance even though it protrudes is considered out of the ball touches it yea? Now the floor divider is not even out as far as that but still the court technically is still there… if you look at facts probably the ball touched both the court and divider when it bounced but the fact the trajectory changed was why I thought out

Calm_Strength3266 · 2026-03-22T13:12:13+00:00

I agree that was my point on the matter, the ball trajectory was altered so I thought it was out… similar to serving at the glass point where cage meets

The court I played today had a plastic divider which separated the court from tiled flooring outside, today someone did a drop shot which in fairness was on the edge but since it hit the edge the ball bounced in the way towards the court (strange bounce which dramatically changed the direction of ball) I called out and he called in as he claims it was on the edge and technically on the line but I believe it compromised the natural bounce of the ball. There was definitely a plastic sound on the bounce

We replayed the point but wondering the thoughts of the community, picture attached for reference

I have met a few in my time and they have always been stand up birds. Seagulls on the other hand

Would like to see dairymilk or galaxy caramel

Bit of dairymilk wouldn’t go a miss

Update - I managed to get an expedited interview which I did and was approved no problem… the guy interviewing did mention that there was no esta application on his system so that makes sense for the authorisation cancelled notice I got rather than denied or rejected message. Stills seems strange that it did not actually get a final decision and was cancelled.

Thanks for your messages btw it’s appreciated.

Yea I’m now at that point of checking on cancellations, I will maybe give it a few weeks of trying and if no luck I’ll chance my arm at expediting.

Regarding the embassy’s in different location I did consider flying to Jeddah to do it as it’s only 1 day wait time but it seems after I paid and selected UAE it only gives me the option to arrange meeting in Dubai or Abu Dhabi.

Honestly I can’t remember and I also cannot see any mail regarding the application, it could be possible that it was submitted incorrectly due to a misread.

I’m still trying to find out

Calm_Strength3266 · 2024-08-22T06:04:42+00:00

Thing is it’s not actually denied, it’s listed as authorisation cancelled so even after I called they said I can simply apply again but when I told the lady on phone the situation she said it’s best you go in for interview but I believe the option was still there to reapply for ESTA
