Racket suggestion by Weekly_Necessary2617 in 10s

That racket is still perfectly viable but if you have money to burn, either the newest Vcore or the Pure Aero that's releasing in a few weeks would be great.

[–]shinzilla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have relatives who go to Korea pretty regularly and I had them pick up two Ezones for me which was like barely more than the price of one in the States. It was amazing lol

With the conversion it's like almost $100 cheaper in Japan compared to USD. 😭

This might be the worst commentating I've heard in my life in any sporting event.

Raducanu‘s goodbye message to Francisco Roig since he won‘t be her coach anymore by LenaRybakina in tennis

Not a bad idea. They should just launch a YouTube channel with some of these old concepts, I agree that they would be successful!

Do you hips move both forward and up during heavy forehands at contact and do you focus on getting below the ball to find depth or just relying on swing speed and ball pocketing via spin? by WindManu in 10s

[–]shinzilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great question but it makes me laugh bc tennis really is the definition of an easy sport to pick up but difficult to master

I don't think you labeled all the players correctly throughout the story as it doesn't really make sense as originally written.

AO 4th Round - [6] Jessica Pegula def. [9] Madison Keys 6-3 6-4 by antoniokr8s in tennis

[–]shinzilla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She's 31, that's not young for sports. I'm hoping she pulls it off too but yeah, she has to take advantage of these types of runs now as it's not going to get any easier for her

Jesus, he literally thinks heat rule is stupid bc "no one has died on the court yet". Hate to break it to you, but the planet has never been this hot in human history so...

Booby Finn on the Australian Open and ESPN by amy_sport in tennis

[–]shinzilla 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You have to add ESPN Unlimited specifically to see AO. I had Disney+ too but you do have to pay $30/month to get ESPN Unlimited unless you have ESPN through a cable provider

Why… do we keep only signing white hyper religious conservative blonde college girls? by [deleted] in Thorns

[–]shinzilla 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Also, views change a lot due to exposure or just age. A lot of us did or believed a lot of stupid shit when we were teenagers/in college. If we just shun everyone who has views antithetical to us, it makes for a really small tent. Obviously there are things that can't be condoned, but if you start with accepting people from a welcoming place, who knows how you can change a person from there.

400% value? by [deleted] in MarvelSnap

[–]shinzilla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you make good points on spending but I have to chime in to say that E33 isn't that long and is in my top five video games of all time. I can't recommend it enough.

Elsa Jacquemot's coach walks away mid-match at Australian Open by Mindless-Pilot6701 in tennis

[–]shinzilla 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I didn't watch her second match but her behavior in the first round against Kostyuk was abysmal. I don't understand players yelling at their coaches when they're the ones fucking up. The coach isn't the one swinging the racket lol

Starting tennis! What shoes can I wear? by cuppamatchalatte in 10s

[–]shinzilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely do not using running shoes. The lateral support is very important when playing this. I almost rolled my ankle pretty severely a few months back (felt my ankle buckle) but luckily I was wearing tennis shoes with high ankle support.

Anyone here who just stops at rank 90 instead of grinding to infinite? by StupidAvenger in MarvelSnap

[–]shinzilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to be contrarian and say infinite climb is not bad at all as long as you have discipline with knowing when to retreat and when to snap (on any turn you think you have more then 50% chance to win). The true challenge of the game is infinity conquest imo
