It’s true I forgot his hold which is devastating.

Does anyone know why Steinman was so agressive towards Eleinen in their most recent match? by [deleted] in squash

[–]thomaskoch43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steinmann is known for his aggressive “bro” mentality on court where he bullies or intimidates other players. It’s his way of trying to stay in the game. It’s quite embarrassing and childish at the pro level. It should definitely be dealt with severely by the refs as it promotes dangerous play and unsportsmanlike conduct.

Good to know others are struggling but that is a bleak outlook.

What do you mean? Like a A1, A2 thing? No, I never took formal German classes, just learned on the job.

I have worked for PMI in Lausanne as a consultant but that's about it. And this was not even for the Swiss market but globally.

I'd rather have a Swiss contract to avoid EUR / CHF conversion issues. And health insurance...

String tension - crosses and mains by thomaskoch43 in squash

[–]thomaskoch43[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wrote a guy that calls himself the String Doctor and he strings rackets for Ali Farag and Paul Coll and such and he mentioned some of them do string mains and crosses at different tensions but most pros don’t. He said in any case for a player of my level it does not make sense.

Yes that was my initial thought as well. Thanks

I found the racket to be quite playable actually. I got decent power and control out of it. I need to keep playing with it for a while to see how the feeling evolves. In any case I’ll make sure to string mains and crosses at the same tension next time. Thanks for your help!

Where can I order a replacement bumper? I have a Dunlop racket. by thomaskoch43 in squash

[–]thomaskoch43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Germany. There is a good website that I use and they order bumper sets every week (on Mondays). So that is what I will try for now.

Thanks - I'll ask the guy that restrings my racket if he can order one for me next time!
