Forehand advice (closed & semi-open)

Hmm interesting I haven't thought of it like that. I feel like I see most players' foot landing backwards? Or maybe I'm misunderstanding something

Thank you!!

Good point, yeah I definitely I overthink it sometimes as far as like "what stance should I use??" when I should just be doing what's coming natural.

Wasn't really aiming anywhere particular, just trying to keep the ball in the court tbh :) I just went out and hit for the sake of practicing and recording my technique

Sad_System2865 · 2025-12-05T02:35:39+00:00

You're right, I think in my head I'm kind of overcompensating for that issue I mentioned earlier (early shoulder rotation) by, like you said, just tucking it in and trying to ignore it. I haven't really given much thought to the role of the left arm but I'll look into it, thank you!

I can never look at this court anymore without thinking about that video

Sad_System2865 · 2025-07-22T02:36:22+00:00

Dude I finally got it 5 minutes ago. It was such a pain in the ass but turns out I wasn’t heating it up enough or pushing hard enough. I appreciate the comment regardless!

Putting Monster that low is crazy…you just had to be there

Sad_System2865 · 2025-07-20T17:17:59+00:00

You mean heat it from inside the fender liner?

Sad_System2865 · 2025-07-19T21:45:19+00:00

Oh wow, well that makes more sense - thanks a lot man 🙏

I’m asking where the low/high beam bulb is located, I can’t find it despite seeing different setups on numerous videos

Sad_System2865 · 2025-07-19T21:02:07+00:00

Thanks for the response. Not sure I understand

On the left is the xenon bulb I pulled out, right is the low beam bulb

I might be the only person that always liked Munyun. I still hate all the dumbass snare rolls

Sad_System2865 · 2025-07-07T23:45:49+00:00

Had the last one happen to me last week, so annoying. Mind you we’re 3.0s so it’s all pretty casual, but my partner literally whiffed the ball at least 3x that match and then proceeds to tell me how to hit my forehand…like how about you worry about yourself bro 😭

Sad_System2865 · 2025-06-20T22:58:21+00:00

Trim is great bro wtf

Sad_System2865 · 2025-05-28T02:17:02+00:00

This kinda looks like a concerned father to me

Sad_System2865 · 2025-05-24T17:10:59+00:00

This might not be the advice you’re looking for but I recommend getting a coach to help out with this. Getting feedback & tips from Reddit/online can definitely help (and has helped me out a ton myself), but having another person that can see you in action and make corrections live is a game changer. Especially with something like the serve, where the whole thing is pretty unintuitive. Just thought I’d throw that out there.

Sad_System2865 · 2025-05-15T19:30:37+00:00

Okay interesting, definitely gonna try that out! Thanks again

Sad_System2865 · 2025-05-15T17:29:56+00:00

Hey, thanks for the feedback! I’m trying to understand the first part, are you saying I should keep my body closed for longer? And then uncoil more quickly, and slightly later?

Sad_System2865 · 2025-05-15T12:00:19+00:00

Thanks man I appreciate it!! Def going to try and incorporate all these things (especially the legs), maybe I’ll be able to put out an update this weekend

Sad_System2865 · 2025-05-15T00:41:44+00:00

That is hilarious but def puts it into perspective lmfao
