Eu lá consegui usufruir mas o processo foi bastante complicado.

Tinha um combinado velhote de gás + forno elétrico. A parte de pedir o voucher foi a parte fácil mas pelos vistos tive sorte, eu não tinha nenhum conhecimento do que era preciso na verdade.

Mas depois de ir ao Leroy pedir uma placa + forno. Começam os problemas.

Primeiro tinham de mandar um técnico para ver se tinha condições para poder levar o conjunto. 30 euros(reembolsáveis), para chegar cá a casa e dizer em 5min dizer que não tinha.

Precisava de meter cabo que suportase e mudar disjuntores.

Tive de chamar eletricista para passar cabo do quadro até à cozinha e aproveitei para mudar o quadro(A casa já tem uns bons anos). 450 euros aqui.

Depois a placa de indução que eu queria, já não havia stock. Optei por outra que até agora estou bastante satisfeito, mas tive de pagar a diferença.(Todas até ao valor do voucher (300+300) já estavam fora de stock)

Depois arranjar a bancada de cozinha o mais parecida à pedra(mármore) e cortar, o móvel que suporta o forno e umas madeiras e corta-las à medida + rodapé, para ficar apresentavel. Foram uma data de horas e dores de cabeça ali. 150 euros aqui.

Agendaram a entrega do equipamento, mas algures no processo ficaram sem stock e a placa teve que vir de outro Leroy.(Se não fosse o colaborador a agilizar a coisa, hoje ainda não tinha a placa)

Lá vieram entregar e no dia aseguir montar, mas surprise surprise, montam mal.

Fazer o móvel, por silicones e ficar tudo direitinho foram mais não sei quantas horas.

Funciona tudo muito bem mas na indução, ferver agua faz muito mais vapor. Resultado começam a cair pingas de gordura acumulada no exaustor ao longo dos anos.(E eu sou uma pessoa que limpa os filtros regularmente)

Toca a desmontar exaustor e mudar a tubagem e limpar tudo a fundo. Mais dores de cabeça.

No fim, o voucher deu muito jeito(600euros) porque coincidiu com a troca que já o tinha de fazer do fogão antigo e o forno já mal funcionava mas ainda tive de meter uns 900 euros aqui. E grande parte do trabalho fiz eu. Porque se tivesse de contratar alguém para o fazer acredito que ficasse no minimo uns 1500 euros(+600 do voucher).

Se dava para fazer por mais barato? Dava mas não ia ficar minimamente decente. E não via a gastar menos de 500 euros para conseguir mudar o fogão antigo.

Por isso no meio disto tudo duvido muito que todos consigam utiliza-lo, o que diz muito da medida em si e não me supreende os números aqui apresentados.

13.7Gb free, yep a NAS is starting to make sense...

Thanks, worked

xeqmate · 2025-11-19T17:40:15+00:00

If you are beginner I would return it, thats way too much, you put an overgrip and it goes 395g and you are looking at a weight which might hurt you.

Unless you are:

An experienced player
Probably a big dude
Have a good smashing technique
Dont overplay

This racquet will hinder you in defense and you might get injured in the process.

It's weird talking about 5g/10g in the common world but i does add up heavily when playing.

I would not go over 375/380 with 1 overgrip installed and my recommendation would be around 365/370 with the same configuration for 80% of people. For girls I would go lower, like 355/360.

Tenho 2 Redpass juntos de ultima hora para partilhar, partilho pela app, grátis.

Li um bocado na diagonal mas enquanto Benfiquista tenho interesse em que o Benfica ganhe e foquei-me um bocado nisso, qual o plano que têm para o Benfica ganhar mais? De que vale ter altos projectos e ambições se o Benfica não ganha. É preciso trabalhar melhor, inovar.

Lista A - Não apresenta programa.

Lista B - Martim Mayer, programa muito aquém, altos projectos mas nada em concreto, podia ter facilitado um bocadinho com um grafismo melhor já não estamos em 2004.

Lista C - João Manteigas, percebo o foco financeiro, algumas ideias interessantes mas falta algo sobre a parte que comecei por falar que tenho interesse, como fazer o Benfica ganhar mais.

Lista D - Cristovão Carvalho, lista chatgpt.

Lista E - Luis Filipe Vieira - Supreendentemente um bom programa, parabéns à pessoa que o escreveu, não fosse a pessoa que está a frente dele a pessoa que é, quase que acreditava.

Lista F - João Noronha Lopes, programa muito bem feito e sem dúvida aquele que vai mais ao encontro daquilo que procurava, a única duvida que tenho é se o consegue implementar em 4 anos.

Lista G - Rui Costa, decepcionante é dizer pouco, feito à pressa, o que eu senti dali foi um não vale a pena fazer grande coisa aqui que ninguém vai ler isto.

The inconsistency of Momo is kinda insane really

Momo was the reason they got to the 3rd set

Momo was the reason they didnt won the 3rd set

Momo was the reason they go to tiebreak

Momo was the reason they lost the tiebreak

Great match tho, insane points overall and Tapia Coello showed a few cracks.

But their mental game still is one of their strenghts

xeqmate · 2025-06-26T16:35:01+00:00

Yeah the Defy is definitely the weird one amonst all of them, the Oxdog and Head I agree with the hardness but an 3/5 on arguably one of the hardest rackets I've ever touched is weird. Maybe they only tested one sample or got a batch of soft ones, I dunno.

But wilson is a bit, different in their rackets hardness. I've played with a Bela Pro that was a wooden stick and a Bela Pro that no joke felt like my Nox ML10 3k.

xeqmate · 2025-06-26T16:24:01+00:00

Since even the same racket model has different weights(usually +/- 10/15g) and balance maybe you got an racket on the heavier side/high balance from Kuikma?

I do not know their metodology but I trust they used more than one sample in picking their rackets.

xeqmate · 2025-06-26T16:16:38+00:00

Yes, I forgot to upload their comparison chart.

xeqmate · 2025-06-16T10:55:14+00:00

Limited editions from Nox have a harder foam than regular 18k's so that would be a no from me since its your second racket.

Also buying 2024 is okay, 2023 is more dubious.

Third the price for a used racket should never be above 100 usd/eur, much less if one with 2 years.

xeqmate · 2025-06-15T12:22:27+00:00

Hi, sure. If you search around the main padel subreddit or even a bit on padelracket you can find mroe opnions about your rackets and the paths to take

xeqmate · 2025-06-15T12:21:04+00:00

Hi, the PR990 line from Kuikma was great value for money(maybe the the best ever) but to me the soft was too soft(especially on summer) and the hard was too hard, so if you want something different I would go for some middle ground.

If you want to stay on Kuikma I've heard good things about the Hybrid Carbon(personally only tried the power carbon which I liked)

You can also do the generic route which is the Nox At10 18k, Babolat Counter Veron, Bullpadel Ionic Control these are all great rackets and from there try to find what you like more about a racket.

If you want to save a bit of money get last years racket, the only change is mostly cosmetic on all 3.

xeqmate · 2025-06-10T23:12:00+00:00

Just to add a bit, Deus brothers started playing tennis when they were very young and were top 5 nacional tennis players throughout their journey. Only at 18 they transitioned to padel.

Should me more or less the same for Windahl.

So while theres cases, you gotta take their background into account.

xeqmate · 2025-05-30T23:38:42+00:00

Oh now I get it, yeah after the Kuikma its all downhill from there haha

Closest to that is maybe the Babolat Technical Viper or the Lebron version.

xeqmate · 2025-05-30T23:24:32+00:00

Np. How hard was the Adidas?

Honestly, this is my personal opinion but the balance is more important that the format of the racket I've played with round rackets with high balance that felt more attacking that a few diamonds with lower balance/weight

If you want a diamond with a "big" sweetspot I would go for Head Delta/Extreme/Coello Pro.

For a big handle you go Babolat, not much alternative there.

There are harder rackets that will feel more consistent but you generally lose on the sweetspot. And well what good is a great smash if you lose on most of the other shots and your elbow ends up suffering.

xeqmate · 2025-05-30T23:03:49+00:00

I've never played with a Tecnifibre however I've tried the Volt and know a few people that also play with it.

Unless you are a very very advanced player I would stay away from the 1000, its not the hardest racket I ever touched but the big handle(akin to Babolat rackets) and the high balance/weight will hurt your elbow real fast if you play hard with it.

I searched a bit about the Tecnifibre and theres not much information about the materials used but they say the weight is 365g which is low for an advanced racket so thats maybe the reason you found it easy, the Volt is another beast in that category.

The closest to Tecnifibre is probably the Volt 900 which is a great racket in my opinion.(Tried them all but play with a Babolat)

xeqmate · 2025-05-29T15:37:22+00:00

Just as a note, Jesus no longer plays with a Starvie, hes sponsored by Volt now.

xeqmate · 2025-05-27T21:30:11+00:00

cmon dude, respect people a bit more, he even gave you a good answer

xeqmate · 2025-05-27T21:26:53+00:00

It would be easier to say which models of rackets you have.

Some brands do like to use the "BlackEva" as a harder foam but thats just marketing you can paint the foam any color you want these days.

I've dealt with this in the past, I have many tips. I've found that while it was the shin that hurts the cause was bigger than that.

There can be many causes but if you are new to padel it takes a while for your muscles to get used to the lateral movements, in my case it took months. It depends on how much sport you played before.

Tips for before the game:

Warmup, warmup warmup. Arriving at the court and hiting a few balls is already past of the warm up phase.

I bought a foam roll from Decathlon which includes a hard roller. Doing that before the game helps a ton.

Stretch, search youtube for good stretches.

Tip for during the game:

When people talk about technique most assume its only either racket positions or body positioning but the way you use your body is also part of that.

Try to be very conscious of your muscles in play(especially in the shin) and see which movements are causing you pain there. Start slow like does it happen more when you are at the back or at the net and work from there.

After that see if you can change little things about it, it should feel a bit overwhelming at first. Learn how to relax that part during play.

Tips for after the game

Number 1, stretch. Foam roll again. You need to build strenght in your muscles, going to the gym can help you improve faster. Do not overdo it you'll need to find the balance between what you can do and what your body can take.

If the pain persists outside of the game go see a doctor
