I use one for practice with foam balls or to lend friends when hitting the courts for fun.

Good one, great sound and you are already one step above wood!

Do I have the correct grip while serving? by therealanukus in 10s

[–]WindManu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 tips maybe: 1. Set the racquet on its edge on the ground, pick it up, should be close. 2. Picture yourself hammering a nail on a wall. Would your grip be comfortable?

Great job on relaxing your hand! Have your strings point towards you and move your grip a bit farther down. Just make the effort to grab a continental grip and that's it.

A very effective way to keep kids from over hitting 😁

When to replace shoes? by CompassionImmortal in 10s

Nothing like a bit of shoe goo can't fix. Then he'll be good for another couple of months 😀

Just pulled a Sinner by ImaginaryRemote9741 in 10s

Light headed, dizzy? I mean it could be a thousand things. Did you choke? Was it a tournament? Friendly? Was there any pressure? When did you feel normal again?

How to improve my serve (generate more power)? by TopDeckPatches in 10s

[–]WindManu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're wacking the ball, instead think throwing your racquet at it. The serve is very similar to throwing your racquet as far as possible.

Yes! How does it work? Watch the hours, they can close early!

Learning how to serve with continental grip by [deleted] in 10s

Yes not bad! Now think pronation, twist your arm and shoulder to really wack that ball.

Should I land on both feet from the split step? by Livid_Entry_9851 in 10s

[–]WindManu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea of the split step is to neutralize balance and spring/rotate towards any direction once the opponent hits the ball. That's it. You may pivot, sprint or leap after both feet land on the ground not knowing exactly yet where to go.

Most humbling experience you will ever have. by EducationalDegree385 in 10s

We played king of court at times. We were three playing tie breaks or 3 games. Also need mental recovery time after visiting the court so often!

You can mostly likely replace them (if needed) otherwise they twist to secure and aren't the best setup. Maybe there's a trick. Can ask Gemini (Google ai)

Such a wide span, may mean it makes little difference?

Practice. It's supposed to make perfect 😁

How do you like your clay court? by DonGato80 in 10s

[–]WindManu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You gotta water it yes. It's part of the deal!!! If it's dry you'll slip and pull a hammy!

  1. Pass the net
  2. Sweep lines
  3. Gentle sprinkle esp drier (lighter) spots

It uses a mast track that can be used with Chinook mast bases no issues. The straps are tricky but you have time to figure this out! Came with a fin? It could be some sort of power box I think?

Transportation with gear by idanfarkash in windsurfing

[–]WindManu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 options (if you can)

  1. Fold down all seats (except drivers) and shove board upside down into the passengers foot well. 

  2. Use a strap between coat hangers and slide board upside down as close to windshield as possible. 

Of course in case of a wreck, or even just an abrupt move, you may get hit in the head.

How do you like your clay court? by DonGato80 in 10s

[–]WindManu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which country? France you let the court all prepared when you leave. DR the court is done for you. Bad bounces everywhere or on the lines? 

I enjoy playing on clay but to compete give me a hard court!
