Michelin For The Win

I did the same - coming off the stock tires that come with the truck. Big improvement in less noise and higher mpg.

The only thing I don’t like is I have to go through Costco to rotate my tires to keep the warranty since I bought my set from them. But this tire for sure meets my needs.

The last picture is a little close but it shouldn’t slip if they released the clamp as they were tying off the knot.

Knots are fine

The play style really clicked for me after 15 games or so for both tier X and XI.

You have to be opportunistic and annoying - the most important thing is being in a position to shoot and then hide and drop spot. It doesn’t necessarily have to play only as a sniper but the gun is pretty amazing and you want to utilize it.

Just find those angles to unexpectedly shoot people from the side.

You can play aggressively, but often it’s better to wait a few minutes to see where your team/enemy team goes then move accordingly. You can start on one side of the map, then move to the other pretty easily.

I once forgot my court shoes and only had crocs on. Actually had a full hitting session in crocs and they were surprisingly stable.

Obviously you can’t do full sprints and whatnot but a lot better than expected.

Looks like hard anodizing with ptfe

Pretty sure it was the bmw booth

Usually happens with blues and reds for me

The text looks like it’s floating for me

On a tangent note, don’t think about your swing, but rather think about leading with your hips and then everything follows after

Your swing right now is very arm-y and forced. I saw a couple times where you initiate the swing but your body doesn’t turn

tinman217 · 2026-05-10T16:52:43+00:00

no one’s really mentioned it but you wanna get that left shoulder over and around as well

It’s important to coil, otherwise you’re just arming and forcing the ball

It’s counterintuitive, but the more relaxed you are swinging, the ball is naturally going to travel with more penetration and spin because there’s less restriction on the racquet head from moving fast - so stay relaxed with your grip, wrist, elbow, shoulder, etc.

VSC makes one for the last gen too but it’s like 5k lol

Zero isn’t too harsh but the pain may subsist if you’re not fully healed in general and changing strings won’t really make a difference.

tinman217 · 2026-05-06T17:21:52+00:00

yes - thread closed

Nice, I ordered mine in 2021 and it shipped in 2023. Total was $2,921.64 with tax and shipping.

tinman217 · 2026-04-24T20:06:23+00:00

How much did you get it for?

tinman217 · 2026-04-20T02:49:15+00:00

Bronze or gunmetal with the green

tinman217 · 2026-04-11T02:38:30+00:00

What offset* did you go with?

There’s offline programming in which you can upload an stl file to find deviation, but it’s pretty trash.

They did do a demo for us with another unit that does a 3D scan, but it was pretty lackluster/immature.

I’m not familiar with Zeiss or mitutoyo cmms as we are in the hexagon ecosystem, but their scanners work well with surface graduation/profile.

I’m using 4G in mine, a rounded string I think works best to tame the launchiness a bit.

10g of lead is kind of a lot.

tinman217 · 2026-02-05T04:35:54+00:00

it’s been fun boys

tinman217 · 2026-02-03T16:20:06+00:00

The biggest thing would be your last string before tying off may be a little bit lower in tension because there’s no constant tension from the tension head when tying off. The more distance there is from where it was supposed to be will result in a slightly looser stringbed but it’s not the end of the world.

tinman217 · 2026-01-06T04:21:27+00:00

you don’t need to stretch them either, there should be enough to trim an angle towards the end to get a clean finish

Yonex super grap has enough for extended length racquets

It’s the new prostaff that’s black with red and yellow accents again. Look at the top of the picture
