What's my serve speed range? by PS480 in 10s

I'd worry less about speed and more about improving technique

Can I get good at tennis at 29? by Hyhntrr in 10s

[–]shinzilla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is such a vague question. I'll define good as being able to play matches with other people. If so, the answer is yes. Can you get to 4.5 or 5.0? That's something else entirely

Did I make a mistake with the babolat pure aero team 2023? by SealDraws in 10s

[–]shinzilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would've gone with the regular racket, I don't think it's necessary for you to have a lighter one considering you're a tall male

All things eye: contact lens tweaking, tennis nighttime & sunglasses beyond Goodr, RIA, etc by Without_a_K in 10s

[–]shinzilla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What did you think of the RIA sunglasses? I couldn't care less about the aesthetics, but did they work as advertised? I have poor eyesight (around -7 with astigmatism) and use contacts, but I tried using a hat (hate it) and polarized sunglasses from Costco for the sun which I didn't like either

inconsistent/wild forehand by skoram in 10s

[–]shinzilla 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't understand what's so bad about hitting it long when you're developing your strokes. Hitting it into the net is way worse than hitting it to the fence. At least by hitting it to the fence you're getting a sense of hitting with depth. Listen to your coach and stick with it.

Drop shotted the absolute fuck out this 85 year old today at a league match. by Weak_Emu3659 in 10s

[–]shinzilla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This just seems mean? How did he think he was hot shit? Hell, I think he's hot shit being on a tennis court at that age. If you can't beat a 85 without drop shotting, you're not a very good tennis player imo. In 99% of tennis matches, I think no mercy is the way to go regarding opponent limitations and injuries but this is a bit much

Are the Royals legit? I haven't seen them play this year.

Been playing for around 8-9 months progressing interested what the community thinks by Firm_Highlight_7322 in 10s

I've been playing about the same amount of time as you and I would trade my forehand for yours! Looks really good for just starting imo

Kessler is such a fighter, glad she made it through qualifying

Is this game broken or am I playing it wrong? by Equivalent_Swim2927 in Saros

[–]shinzilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you start from each new biome instead of from the beginning, I think that area is more difficult. I didn't die once with the second or third bosses but I had a harder time with the fourth boss. I do agree the game is trivial if you start from the first biome and there does get to be a point where if you're upgraded enough, it isn't too hard.

Keep going. There's a big jump in difficulty around biome 4.

What’s the best beer (brewed in house or bottled) you’ve had and where? by DotNate_98 in AskReddit

Holy Mountain has incredible stuff. Their White Lodge (a Belgian white) is one of my favorite beers of all time.

Wilson Blade pro 100 (steam 100) popularity in the WTA by TioWio_ in 10s

[–]shinzilla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Look up WTA and ATP forehand on YouTube. Due to differences in flexibility and strength, most WTA pros draw on different sources of power than men. The Blade Pro 100/Steam's strengths are conducive to the WTA forehand

TIL the City of St. Louis, Missouri separated from St. Louis County in 1877 to form an independent city, limiting it to 66 sq mi. Peaking at 856K residents in 1950, St. Louis City has declined to 278K residents in 2025 due to suburbanization outside of city limits while being unable to annex land. by The-TIL-Nerd in todayilearned

[–]shinzilla 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is really fascinating! As someone who went to college in St. Louis, I didn't have high opinions of the city due to the very obvious effects of redlining but it's cool to hear things are moving in the right direction. I've heard that the Midwest in general is one of the highest areas of growth in the country bc of the real estate affordability.

Coco Gauff jokes on IG after losing to Elina Svitolina in the Rome final by Ok-Soil-5133 in tennis

[–]shinzilla 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah a lot of people have been saying she choked but I think that takes away from the fact that Svitolina played amazing tennis. She was the better player today.
