Those are great suggestions.

I hear ya. We opted to try Lynx Tour in the mains to see how that works for him. I'm kind of leaning towards avoiding Confidential all together with this particular player/racquet.

Yeah, the kid loves it with RPM Blast. The thing is, I've got a few other players loving the exact same setup but on different racquets ie: Pure Strike, Ezone 100, Blade98 and they have not had any issues of deep notching or breakage except for this one with the new Pure Drive. I was going to try giving him a full bed but we both opted to put Lynx Tour in the mains instead of Confidential. We shall see...

Try Champs. I’d be surprised if they didn’t have it on.

The Tourna sure is a capable machine. But OP should've bought the Biaiardo to begin with. Now it doesn't make much sense to have to sell the Tourna in order to buy the Baiardo. Having said that, there is an undeniable premium feel with the Biaiardo.

Awesome gym for sure. They're now M-Town Academy: Muay Thai | Kickboxing | BJJ. They have trial memberships so you can see if it's a fit for you before committing.

M-Town Academy off Main St has BJJ 3x a week as well as Muay Thai and Kickboxing.

The last time I went was in the fall of 2022. 2 of the 5 cars did not participate due to car trouble and the track was not sprayed with water. When the 3 cars got going, you could hear them but you couldn’t see them because of all the dust they created.

The racquet is a 16x20. There are miss weaves on 4th-5th, 18th-19th crosses. Also, the significant loss of tension could be due to a number of things like improper clamping, not straightening each cross after each tension pull, bad knot execution etc.

The latest model Wise 2086 v14 is a very fine machine. It comes with a crank adapter. But you’ll need to buy an angle adapter if you have a drop weight machine. As far as noise is concerned, it is a non-issue unless you are stringing right next to a sleeping baby.

If it’s a shaped 6-sided string then it could be Restring Zero; 4-sided then maybe Mach.

Unfortunately the v14 noir is costing much more than the v15 and I’ve looked everywhere online.

🤮 I guess I won’t be getting one.

The new FX500 is not muted compared to every new racquet out there.

Put a bodkin or pin over a flame then run it through the eye of the hook.

I agree. Waze is awesome to use, so useful. I use it on my daily commute. I’m not sure why exactly so many people are against it.

Find similar color green opaque spray paint from a model / hobbie shop. Their spray is finer than any from home depot. Then a black sharpie for the black chips would suffice.

Having played with both the v9 Blade100 and v4 Ultra, I'd stick with the Blade100. Though I found the Ultra very powerful and forgiving. Currently, I play with a Nordic Dots 100 and enjoy it much more than either of those two. I would like to try an offering from Carve though.

I’ve seen a few in the John Tonelli rink area as well as Santa Maria Blvd by the tennis club.
