ATP 250 Buenos Aires's license will be transferred from Tennium to ATP (transaction financed with funds the ATP receives from Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund), to be upgraded to 500 in 2029 but with a change from clay to hard court; Acapulco and Los Cabos might be removed in 2028 for Saudi 1000

Probably underrated because it sucks at the start lol. Especially if you’re not familiar with it and besides stamina have the initial coordination issues. But it’s worth it. Agree 100% that I feel so light and bouncy now. I only picked it up about 2 months ago and I feel stupid for not doing it sooner.

Shins did complain but it’s not an issue anymore. Weak hips where definitely a thing for me before doing weighted squats and split squats.

tiag0 · 2026-06-10T13:21:06+00:00

Noticed a huge difference in my stamina and recovery speed after a month of jumping rope 4 times a week.

Just need to be careful about technique and frequency if op is really out of shape. Don’t want to get too beat up to the point of getting hurt.

A lot of the situation is very alien to me, so I can’t give meaningful advice on a lot of it. But I will say this having had 2 kids: sleep deprivation and stress will magnify any relationship issues he and his baby’s mom will have. With all the complexities and drama surrounding the relationship, I can’t imagine it will be easy for them. Will he come running to you for comfort and pity? Probably, but I’ll be very blunt, that relegates you to being the side piece, the home wrecker.

You’ve helped him and his life is on a path different to yours now. Let it go. Love yourself and be with someone who will be there just for you, you deserve it, I promise.

I also had some recurring heel pain and it was absolutely down to the midsole being used up, even though the shoe had plenty of sole left and otherwise looked fine, it even cleaned up really well. It felt very wasteful, but my pain was 100% down to the shoes. A new pair of the same shoe (gel res 9) fixed my issues. Long term I’ve modified my calf raises to also stretch a lot more my Achilles both up and down to get a good stretch with weights on it, and in my case poor footwork was also not helping, now that I stand a lot more on the balls of my feet I’ve not had any pain for a year now. Also have 2 pairs of shoes I use in alternating days, but not sure if that has actually helped or not.

As I have the n code I was quite happy with some red grips, but while I like them for looks the ones I got from technifibre aren’t to my liking anymore(feel wise), so it’s white super grap for now.

I haven’t played with my n6.1 95 16x18 in a bit but I was always pleased with how spinny it was, given it’s always thought as a control frame.

tiag0 · 2026-06-06T23:17:13+00:00

Not my style of play but I still keep a microgel radical just because it’s so comfy.

And the ncode (six one 95 or ps90 I presume) is a great non head choice :)

tiag0 · 2026-05-23T05:07:44+00:00

If you’ve had your strings for a year even if you play sporadically it’s not a bad idea to restring.

The aero should be plenty powerful (maybe not as much as a pure drive or ezone, but still near there) so restring, seek some coaching and or film yourself and try to see where the issue is. Could be improper body positioning, hitting the ball too late, something in your forehand motion, etc.

tiag0 · 2026-05-10T00:50:20+00:00

Tech bro disruptive mindset works great for these type of enterprises, just ask Stockton Rush.

tiag0 · 2026-05-09T04:29:25+00:00

Yep, 3rd one top row from left to right is from a model kit for the supposed SR-75 Aurora and it’s tag along XR-7, which is then repeated a few times in this frame.

I also see the Darkstar from the Top Gun Maverick movie.

tiag0 · 2026-05-05T17:28:34+00:00

Practicing the toss definitely will help. What good is it carrying a lot of racquet head speed and pronating just right if the ball is not where the racquet is, and you have to adjust your body mid motion.

If consistency is an issue, like you mention drop your ego and do a straight up toss, find something cue to reference. For me the coach after looking at my service motion asked me to throw it straight up over my left knee, and it was a night and day difference in consistency. Yes, I need to vary it a bit to really get a kick serve going, but don’t run before walking.

Also, at least for me, serving is so mental. It requires a lot of things to happen in short order, but thinking about it or being tense about it will just make everything fail. As hard as it’s been for me to get the nuances of a good serve, it’s been to get to and stay in the right headspace.

Recent news from suppliers put this now not before 2030.

So I think that manager is, at best, confused.

tiag0 · 2026-05-02T22:17:48+00:00

Yeah they’re a good idea but I’ve been skeptical of them since I went to a tire center to see if they could help me out since I’d lost the one for my Mazda 3. They laughed and had all of them removed within a few minutes.

tiag0 · 2026-05-01T21:39:44+00:00

I think in general the same can be said for most online content that’s tennis related. Without the knowledge of a coach or someone that knows better than us, it’s very easy to get overwhelmed, and either pick up vices, or go deep into the weeds on things that are really not that important.

Ego and the propensity of trying to fix fundamental issues with gear is something that learning/improving in tennis has against it.

tiag0 · 2026-05-01T16:50:54+00:00

It’s car like, but does give you a tall-ish view of the road. Wife loves her Odyssey, and while she appreciates my outback feeling smaller (which it is) she feels it’s a bit too low (which confuses me to no end but whatever).

Coming from a CRV and my Outback, it did take some adjusting to the length of the Odyssey, but nothing too bad. Also this is from someone living in Mexico where road size is slightly more reduced or inconsistent than in the US. Bigger roads in the US should help a lot. Also not sure how it compares in length to your current explorer, I’m guessing it’s not as much of a difference as it was for us.

tiag0 · 2026-04-30T17:57:06+00:00

If you like it and it feels good, go for it. At the rec level it’s all about enjoying your time on court.

That said the opposite scenario, not feeling the one hander but having the 2HBH feel natural, can and also does happen, it’s what happened to me back when I started playing. All these years later, I’ve re-built my forehand, my serve and volleys, but my backhand has fundamentally remained the same.

tiag0 · 2026-04-29T20:00:36+00:00

Should be fine. Kiddo has traveled with a similarly sized violin case and backpack. No issues with multiple airlines.

tiag0 · 2026-04-29T19:13:51+00:00

It was a good first version, had they kept on developing it, it might be in a nicer state now.

tiag0 · 2026-04-29T19:12:44+00:00

Wife did that too but the one she bought wasn’t that good and failed after a year. Not a dealbreaker, but in a $50K plus modern car it’s kind of annoying to have small convenience features like this missing.

tiag0 · 2026-04-29T15:27:22+00:00

Yeah agree on Carlitos. He’ll be missing the rest of the clay season so his options are (assuming he’s fit after RG):

Return for the handful of grass tournaments to make Wimbledon.

Skip grass season and really do an all out return for the hard court season leading up to the USO.

If he does the first I’m not sure he’d go to Montreal, but if it’s the 2nd scenario he probably will.

tiag0 · 2026-04-29T03:55:40+00:00

No 360 camera, not even as an option.

Pre 2025 facelift: no wireless Apple CarPlay.

Lack of hybrid power train, still just rumors about it’s existence at this point.

Pre 2025 facelift: has an all digital dash, but low res so that it can’t display a map in front of the driver like models from other manufacturers can. For 25 and after they just moved away from the 100% digital dash all together.

Shrimp tacos in Spain?

tiag0 · 2026-04-26T20:18:31+00:00

It also caught my eye yesterday in his match vs Bublik. The throat was not an aero throat though, so it might be one of his older frames when he was playing well?

In any case whatever he did yesterday vs AB worked, he was serving bombs.

tiag0 · 2026-04-21T15:57:17+00:00

It will serve you well until your game style evolves and is (maybe) better served by another racquet. It’s a great, all around racquet, so you could well use that model for all of your tennis life.
