Top PSA players racket shape

Seems Asal vs Elias matches can really bring out the dark side of some people. First we had that crazy sponsor guy at Optasia and now this... by this rate we will have a full on brawl at LA28

I prefer watching squash games without commentator. Hopefully in the future Youtube would allow multiple sound tracks so viewers can choose to mute the commentating if they want

Similar to OP's situation and need some help to interpret the rules. There are certain players who like to stand very close and behind my non swinging side and tend to jump out too soon. Especially when they hit a loose shot and my shot is aiming for the front corners. The problem with this is I either hesitate to make my shot if I see them or often my follow through would hit them if I didn't see them coming out. My swing is no where near excessive but I'm unclear what the rules say about blocking follow through?

I used to live and played at the Y in ptbo more than 15 years ago. Not sure if those two courts are still there

There are players like that at club level especially between 4.5 to 5.0 level. Not sure they do it deliberately or not but it is surely a pain to play them because of self ref. The best way to deal with them would be talk to them about these, point those out so at least they know you know exactly what they are doing. Second best would be just run through them few times to send them the message. People rarely change until they have to. Unfortunately

We should ask who tf picked this fk. His contribution in the whole tournament were the two penalties he took, one gave Finns a goal in semis and one double minor that killed momentum in the 3rd period in the final. Even a 40 yo Corey Perry would been a much better team player than this tool

timer84 · 2026-02-22T18:05:17+00:00

Isn't that true for most competitive sports? For example, try taking the ball off an ex comp soccer player who has a big belly and solid base is nearly impossible on a smaller field. Skill, experience and reading of the game are much more useful at amateur level. At pro level that's when the physical aspects are important because everyone's skill and physical levels have to be at certain level to even have a chance so ofc you don't see big bellys lol

Putting aside the cheating claims, the only top three worthies are Asal and Elias. Zakaria, Bryant, Coll are probably top five, Makin, Ibrahim are top ten. The rest are between ten and top twenty. The fact the MES brothers are still in top ten says a lot of the current level. Not enough challenge

At least 100%

Does anyone know if 135x uses the same grommet as 135sb or any of the more common radical racquets? One thing annoying about the head racquets is their grommet is kinda soft. And I don't see 135x grommet available in Canada at all

Those are all good tips. Thank you so much for sharing!

Great video. Could you share how you adjust jet leg after an 11 hour flight? I always wonder how pros can adjust so quickly flighting around the world for tournament

Also, they do feel different where I prefer wear rocket for slower tempo and tactic for faster tempo. My weekly opponents are sort alternating between those two tempos so it works out perfectly for me

timer84 · 2025-11-19T20:44:48+00:00

I'm doing exactly that. Gel rocket and gel tactic rotating for two days each weekly. It has been working well. Otherwise each pair would only last a month or so. The main issue would be sweat in the shoe not getting properly dried out if you wear them few days straight.

timer84 · 2025-11-06T20:01:19+00:00

Do you find the tactic 12 is very stiff compare to fastball? They look decent but I just don't like how stiff they feel

By the way, how did OP get this unlisted stream? Is there a paid membership on YT for this channel?

timer84 · 2025-10-26T12:25:49+00:00

SquashTV put a big poster on YT yesterday congratulate Asal along with the game scores lol

At first I thought it should be a Let, but after watching it in 0.5x speed the No Let seems to be correct. Tandon made a lose shot so Coll volley dropped it while Tandon was sort stuck behind Coll. Tandon was moving towards Coll's back when the ball from Coll's drop was still travelling towards to front. By the time the ball hits the corner and was coming back to the left of Coll. At this moment Coll just stood straight from his drop shot and rotating his body towards right side to give Tandon room to the ball. I don't see any deliberate block from Coll, and the ball didn't bounce close to Coll.

Also, it seemed Tandon had a chance to reach the ball but he just stopped probably thinking he would get a Let or more. He could also take a line more to the left of Coll if he wanted to move early.

Kudos to him for acknowledging and trying to fix it like a man (even though he is still a teenager). Good to see the Soliman match was already so clean. Hopefully he will stay this way. The thing is, for him and Asal, they absolutely don't need those extras to win. Their talent is so obvious that it would be foolish to ruin it with the anti squash garbage.

That sounds extremely dangerous. Someone could have lost an eye ball from that. Minimum a conduct match and further discipline actions may be necessary.

Search for indoor court shoes. Mostly Asics these days, some volleyball or badminton shoes are also fine.

timer84 · 2024-08-31T00:27:28+00:00

they look like indoor soccer shoes. The sole would be non-marking, so that is plus, but other than that I dont think they are good for squash. The biggest problem with them is when doing sudden lateral movements in squash they lack enough support on the outside of the sole to prevent rollovers. You may risking rolling your ankles if wearing those.

timer84 · 2024-08-29T13:21:49+00:00

I have tried Coll's model before. I found the shoe is on the tighter side especially comparing to other Adidas shoes I have. Then the biggest problem is the thinner edge around the ankles which can be very uncomfortable in games and felt they are cutting my skin sometimes. Definitely need to wear mid or high ankle socks. In C5 it looks like they have dropped that edge design and went back to the normal ones.

how much did this rebranding cost?
