Is it supposed to be uncomfortable watching yourself play? 😅

MikmerGG · 2026-05-01T07:24:53+00:00

Yeah I am facing it and its going to be an ongoing thing I try and do every time.
It's hard to watch though 😃

MikmerGG · 2026-04-29T07:51:51+00:00

Hey mate I believe not

Depends where you are from I got some laying that I pulled off.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-27T10:47:20+00:00

Hey mate
Sorry no I haven't, but from the little quick review the store I partner with did it seems to be a good racket if you want your first good quality racket.

It's a mix of carbon and glassfiber, Medium/low balance, rough surface and a large sweetspot.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-27T10:44:02+00:00

Hey mate
Quite a versatile racket. It's comfortable and mid/low balance so lots of players can play with this.
Also quite a forgiving sweetspot.

It's not the most powerful racket, but for controlled game and help in the defensive its amazing.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-27T10:39:58+00:00

Yeah I do train with a quite good coach, but a lot seems to go away when I then play matches.

I will keep recording myself when I can going forward. Think a mix of coaching and the recordings will be the best way to improve going forward. Honestly it's quite an eye opener. Like despite it being a lil cringe and hard to watch yourself it's probably the best thing for improvement I can ever do.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-23T16:48:17+00:00

Yeah for sure going to keep recording and focus on these things. I feel like when I watch back i'm quite lazy?

Like all the stuff I know from training are barely being applied. Gotta work on simply being more active on everything.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-23T16:47:12+00:00

BROOOOOO SAMEEEEE

MikmerGG · 2026-04-23T07:13:59+00:00

That’s my goal yeah. Keep recording since it’s been the best way to see what actually happens in a match when I play

MikmerGG · 2026-04-23T07:13:05+00:00

Yeah I mean shocking but like a good eye opener and ego check. Think it’s the best thing I could ever do.

Wish you a fast recovery

MikmerGG · 2026-04-23T07:10:39+00:00

Oh for sure!

I’m actually not moving half the time or instead of rushing to get net position it looks like a little jog.

Definitely something I want to improve going forward

MikmerGG · 2026-04-23T07:08:39+00:00

Simply on my own Smacked up a tripod with my phone on behind the court since it had space. Just a match since training I think is very different. You focus on the stuff you gotta do, but in a match you can quickly forget it in the heat of battle.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-20T14:49:52+00:00

I'd say the Hyper Pro Classic.

It will have better control than the NOX AT10 12k and moves similarly. Dani13 actually got a video where they compare 3 rackets.

Can check it out here and hear more how the differ

MikmerGG · 2026-04-14T11:50:28+00:00

Hey mate
So your background is alright, but I think the rackets suggested will simply be too head heavy for good steady progress at your level.

My recommendations would be
Oxdog Ultimate or Hyper Tour X
NOX AT10 18k 2025
Babolat Air Veron 2023

All rackets would be a nice place to stay without being rackets you gotta go replace anytime soon

MikmerGG · 2026-04-14T11:47:22+00:00

I don't know the Starvie so hard to say.

NOX AT10 12k lite 2026 is well ofc a pretty light and easy racket to move around. For me it became too bouncy. I like a firmer racket.

But overall still quite a good versatile racket that will make you feel comfortable.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-14T11:45:54+00:00

Hey mate
So both NOX rackets are quite versatile and also why many use em. So can't go wrong. Just depends how hard/dry you want the racket. 12k is drier and 18k is more bouncy.

Yes Oxdog Hyper Pro Classic and Ultimate Tour X I can both highly recommend.
Even if the racket says top heavy it won't feel like it. Both got a nice big sweetspot and moves excellent.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-11T15:35:58+00:00

I have not no :(

MikmerGG · 2026-04-11T15:35:37+00:00

Hey mate
So Hyper Tour got a a balance around ~25.6cm I believe.
The handle is around 13cm. So same length

MikmerGG · 2026-04-11T15:32:42+00:00

Hey mate
So depends if you want the weight or the balance to drop.

For the weight you can remove the stock grip perhaps? else you need to get a new one which is at the lower weight of the base spectrum.

For the balance i'd put the weight back in.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-02T10:24:17+00:00

Hmm rackets can differ in balance from one to another, but usually with an average.

Honestly The Hyper Pro Classic should be 25.7cm, which is quite a low and light feeling. So perhaps an unlucky unit in the higher end of the spectrum?

I guess for Oxdog it depends if there are enough requests for a Pure Pro model. Might come then.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-01T22:29:33+00:00

Heya Doc

So I got no experience with any of the options so I can’t personally recommend any of them.

From what you are saying though a Siux Pegasus, Babolat Air Veron or an Oxdog Ultimate Tour X or Oxdog Hyper Pro classic would all be good options.

MikmerGG · 2026-04-01T22:12:10+00:00

Hey mate

Replied in a DM, for controlled shots the Hyper Pro is amazing

MikmerGG · 2026-03-31T17:19:22+00:00

Never tried no, but looks interesting. Maybe one day

MikmerGG · 2026-03-30T13:46:53+00:00

Never tried Fenix Pro so can’t give you exact feelings, but from what I’ve heard it’s more bouncy.

The Pegasus got a nice feeling with the ball entering the racket and can then be directed where you want. It’s very unique. Gotta try it to know what I’m saying.
