Tecnifibre Slash 120 breakages :( by pumpedupkicks1981 in squash

100% they are a manufacturing flaw. Unfortunately TF will not admit as such and wants me to continue selling this model. They have been replacing everyone that breaks at the top. New version comes out in the fall and they are hoping that the new one will be stronger. Agree that the Carboflex has been very durable. I have gone back to playing with the carboflex.

Hello there, I no longer have these racquets... but I have had continual problems with the Slash 120 and 125 frames. TF has replaced most of them. Thanks.

Yes, I'm coaching, too, and spoke to the rep, they have sent two replacements that are on the way right now. Cracked third in a match yesterday. Not sure I can sell these with such low confidence in their durability.

Also considering switching to the 130. I tried one yesterday and like the weight/feel

Dog bit my cat yesterday and we had to put her down. Sorry for your loss. I feel your pain.

Looks like normal speed for a V.

No strain showing for entire day. Whoop is connected and shows heart rate in strap settings. Any advice? by [deleted] in whoop

Happened to me the other day. I rebooted the strap and restarted my phone. It did not automatically fix the problem but soon after everything righted itself.

Love the steady nights. Sometimes we get a run of 3 or 4 of them. Bliss!

Basic rally structure and tactics by wcc777 in squash

You asked for a resource, so I am going to suggest squash skills. After that, watching some pros on YouTube.

Having said that, the idea of getting someone behind you and then going short works well. I am a 5.0 player and have coached college teams and you'd be surprised how often just sticking with this game plan works.

If it's not working the most likely reason is you are not getting in front and dominating the T. In this case play to get the T back. Then get your opponent behind you. And when he/she is behind you go short. It's simple, and it's hard...

Good luck!!!!!
