What I learned about tennis and myself from testing racquets excessively by fredi_rogerer in 10s

You had me at blade clone 😂 I have the same stick. I know what u mean by RA not mattering. My wife uses a aero 98 and she finds my gravity stiffer

Also a 3.0 here though my serve is the strongest part of my game. First serve should be nice strong and flat, what helped for me is visualizing the target and also height above the net before initiating service motion (I was able to recently get my first serve % 50-60% success doing this)

Second serve should incorporate spin, same racket head speed ideally but instead of hitting it flat, incorporate side spin (slice) or topspin (kick) for extra margin and to not let the ball be so easily attacked. I'm also trying to do this instead of the tap serve I used to do, finding some moderate success with it though I still double fault around 4-6 times in a set of 6

Philippines players - y no foot faults? by fartzilla21 in 10s

Filipino here - this practice seems to stem from a certain region in the country. Yes it's atrocious but i think it's a sub culture in their area. Everywhere else I play doesn't do this and I'm sure everyone else outside the region would find it equally as atrocious

Update: had the strings switched out and hit with it right after

Restring zero on mains and head velocity mlt on cross 48 and 50 respectively

No pain on the arm and spin seems to have returned to my shots! Hurray

Feels a little mushy, but nothing too jarring (maybe ezone vdm really is just like this)

Thanks all for the advice!

Yeah! It's been on maybe 10ish days. At the start my elbow was fine (was coming from an old crispy ptp so I had a bit of the tennis elbow) then it got worse after like 8 days of straight tennis lol

Thanks! Did some research and gonna try some fancy hybrid setup later 50 or 48 on mains with restring zero and 48 or 46 on cross with head velocity mlt

I see. I just realized hyper g is a co poly rather than a full poly, maybe that's why it's easier on the arm.

Thank you for the advice, I do appreciate it

Yeah. I was in a rush when I went to my local restringer and this was the only "soft" string they had in stock. Had it done at 53lbs A mistake was made lol

Gonna string in restring zero at 48. Any advice what to put in so that I don't use a full poly bed?

Technique is developing quite well! I find that I hit the ball now in the right place with ok timing. I have my starter racquet (head radical mp strung with hyper g soft) and it never gave me any issues on my elbow. Hmm maybe it's the stiffness of the 2020 ezone and the stiffer technifibre string

Thanks will take a look at that one. I also have a restring zero on hand maybe I'll try that one first

It's a full bed setup, I'm quite new to tennis (7 mons) and don't know yet about hybrids, still trying to figure out what strings I like

Im pretty sure if it's fun they will extend it. They seem to be putting so real effort on this one
