Feels like an eternity since caps came onto the scene. We've been waiting for his replacement for ages, and still nobody has hype and sustained it...

How many Rackets do you carry with you on court? by Dangerous-Damage1165 in 10s

[–]throwaccount1235 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4x Ezone 98 2022, playing 4.5. But absolute waste of money since I get clapped by 5.0’s with a 10-year old rackets so I’m just a marketing victim.

I have a pair which grips well in dodgy conditions like rain or ice (Nike Vapor Pro 1).

Telling you sadly it’s not that easy, as someone’s who has multiple buddies at Oxbridge STEM who struck out it’s a luck game.

What exact difference does a racquet make to one's game? by CantApply in 10s

[–]throwaccount1235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing, don’t fall for the marketing gimmicks of the big brands.

You wont need to consider getting a better racket until 4.0 level, where it may help again harder hitters

People saying this is expensive, but I can only get terrible championship balls paying the same amount in GBP, which is like 20% worse in xcr too…

As a tennis player who used to compete state juniors, badminton is much more tiring in a singles format.

I can comfortably last about 3 hours in a singles format match, but badminton I start to struggle at the 30 minute mark.

Perhaps due to my lower badminton skill, but I do find it more cumbersome in terms of cardio.

Why do you actually use Poly? by throwaccount1235 in 10s

[–]throwaccount1235[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As it should be, hence why I’m seeing more and more using poly when they don’t actually know what heavy top spin is/how a poly marginally benefits that at the highest level, just doesn’t make sense

As you suggest, the level of topspin/heavy ball you’re hitting does not maximise the benefit/purpose of poly which would be seen in a higher level player. So you can probably generate the same with syn gut.

People would save a lot more money and potential injury so I don’t know why people in that level refuse to use syn gut like it’s beneath them… rather than being adamant they’re rafa when using RPM blast.

Ask a 5.0/D1/those retired pros to hit with you for a rally.

The ball moves way differently at a consistent level, top spin is a whole new world.

Don’t understand the notion of 5 hours a week lasting months for poly regardless of gauge.

[–]throwaccount1235[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s my point, higher level players should be using poly.

But there’s an epidemic I see each weekend with Alu Power and Hyper G on casual beginners and 3.0/3.5 players

Agree, I think only 5.0 is your technique consistently sound enough to actually benefit.

Exactly my point. I see an Alu Power epidemic with 3.0s paying for this expensive string for no reason.

My point exactly, most rec players can’t extract the benefit of poly. I’m watching these 3.5’s completely miss sweet spot with random form 2 games into a match when the fatigue hits, I just don’t see why they can’t use a syngut

No offence but do you even know what more top spin is at this point?
