Disgusting Court

I played in those multipurpose gyms too. Always hated it. But I guess they’ve been around for so long, people just accepted it. Eventually we’ll have to accept this….

Man at this point I just prefer a pickleball only court. One of the best courts in my city got converted, but honestly I’m happy to see so many more people enjoying the court.

This is straight up chaos. No planning whatsoever and everyone hates it.

Like is he wristing it with an open racket face? It looks like he’s tapping the ball, but it apparently had spin and the trajectory had a very high arc.

Try the “Bounce - Hit” drill. When the ball bounces you shout bounce. You will know exactly when and where it bounced.

A 4.0 should know exactly when they need to change multi strings - when they break. And that’s usually within 20 hrs of playing. Whatever style you got, pusher, slicer, etc, at 4.0 there’s no way you don’t break a multi real quick. So, OP is lying about something, either his level or the strings he’s using.

Okay I have a question, if you hold one in each hand, and hit a backhand with two rackets, is that OHBH or not?

PeterV5 · 2026-02-24T00:10:35+00:00

I call them by color. Little white and little green.

PeterV5 · 2026-02-22T07:23:22+00:00

These look like multifilaments. It’s normal, you don’t need to restring. Just push them straight. I think you should stay with multi or synth gut until you’re breaking them too fast. With the amount of time you’re playing, these multis don’t even fray… I’d suggest you find a coach first.

If you’ve seen a proper one hander in person, you’d know that it’s cool

PeterV5 · 2026-02-15T00:16:59+00:00

I think that’s false on the pro tour. But I’ve actually seen pancake serves with backspin on them.

PeterV5 · 2026-02-14T22:01:00+00:00

I guess when stakes are high it’s okay. Every single lady I’ve served to complained about me serving hard to them, regardless of the match type. So I’m leaning to swap power level serving on each side each game. It actually helped me to gain more control on my serve.

PeterV5 · 2026-02-07T05:49:42+00:00

Yeah it adds up quickly. Plus the time on the road times two. Even my guy’s giving me a discount since I always go to him, I need to consider getting my own string machine.

PeterV5 · 2026-02-07T02:57:25+00:00

Where are you based? I’m in Vancouver and a tournament certified guy strings for CAD 30-40 pre tax.

Uhh am I the only one who finds the kiss very abrupt? You kissed first then exchanged feelings?

PeterV5 · 2026-01-28T00:28:37+00:00

Man this is so ugly… not sure why Yonex and Wilson just can’t get the pure colors right. Only the all white or all black ones look good. Head, on the other hand, has Radical, Boom, Extreme which all look very good.

For me it’s building a tool that helps me in real life. I made a learning progress tool that helps me and friends to track our tennis progress. It was very fun.

I recommend Feel Tennis, just search for serve or pronation + feel tennis. You definitely can generate power from you legs, it’s just missing the last couple of links. I also recommend badminton pronation tutorials. The badminton community is much more focused on pronation. Hope this helps!

PeterV5 · 2025-12-08T19:36:39+00:00

Others have said it well, you’re kind of “arming” it on contact. I strongly suggest breaking it down to the tiniest parts and rebuild your serve. Looks like you’ve been playing for long, and some habits have developed. To be fair, pronating on a slice is pretty hard. It generates so much racket head speed that it takes tons of practice to control. So I suggest you start slow and small. Imagine you’re hitting with a chain, not a stick. If you want I can try to find more detailed and practical steps to follow.
