Hello Dan,
Please ask these players on how do they select a suitable equipment for themselves and how much time they spend with any new equipment before making up their mind?

PS: I am eagerly waiting for the Butterfly Marcos Freitas blade review which you promised sometime ago. :)
Thanks,
KM1976

Will you play a game against Dan so we can have another giveaway?(a match against them in doubles would be really fun):D

Also, Simon and Hugo are both known for their strong backhands. How much time do they spend for backhand training compared to the forehand?

Hey KM1966, great question ill ask this. The Freitas review will be out very soon don't worry :) Keep an eye out next week hopefully! :)

Please ask why don't they use carbon in their blades?

Already have this on my list, will do :)

Could you ask them how many (same kind of) blades they usually test before they pick up those they actually use and do they have any weight prefernces.

Thanks:).

Sure no problem, good question. I once saw Zhang Jike testing around 8 Zhang Jike blades at a Butterfly stand. He was knocking them for the sound :)

Can you ask them if they are planning on coming across the pond anytime? I've got a reverse pendulum with their names on it;)

Aha absolutely! They won't be ready for your serve Kevin! :D

Will you play a game against Dan so we can have another giveaway?(a match against them in doubles would be really fun):D

Also, Simon and Hugo are both known for their strong backhands. How much time do they spend for backhand training compared to the forehand?

Ill make a video of them talking about this particular area :) And also how to do it!

Could you ask them who was their best doubles partner they played with and if they will play doubles together?

Will do no probs.

Hey dan, no questions but can i get a greeting for my birthday :))

Im looking forward to the review

Aha! Happy birthday amekun, have a great day! Hope you got all the TT gifts you wanted :)

Lot of fun with Simon and Hugo today! Really nice guys! They did not go easy on me :D

<blockquote class="twitter-video" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is intense!
 
One question that pops up in mind is, how much of their training time is spent in doing body stretches.

Ask them if they have been over the design themselves or is it pure marketing?

Also if they have helping choosing the different veneers/plies of their signature blades.

Hi Giang, no probs I asked them that. Both Simon and Hugo came up with the concepts for the design :) They both talk about it in the review footage. Should be a good one!

One question that pops up in mind is, how much of their training time is spent in doing body stretches.

Around 1 hour per day it seemed. All the players there spend 1 hour in the morning doing lots of gym based stuff and stretching. It was impressive how professional all the players were considering how young the team is. They have 2 fitness trainers and a physio therapist. Impressive setup!
