  1. FS/Trade : DHS W968 provincial (Letters)

    Selling my W968 - it's a 2019 model with larger handle size and standard head size. I purchased it new about a month ago and have played with it for about 12h so very light use and no damage or marks I can see. Comes boxed with tags etc and I have validated it at DHS and have the hologram and...
  2. Butterfly officially announces Glazer and Glazer 09C

    I agree - I love D05 but prefer it boosted a little to soften it whilst retaining the lovely top sheet. I hope Glazer might be an easier to access option.
  3. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    What I like about this is the compact efficiency of the stroke - a bit like the FH loop vid of yesterday
  4. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Wow, that's a great video - I am super pleased you found that. Her stroke is just so neat and compact and really looks repeatable and effective. Thanks.
  5. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Got it - makes sense.
  6. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    This is an image I can work with, thanks.
  7. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Agreed -I did feel like I was being beaten, knocked down and getting back up etc. That having been said I did think I was serving him short(ish) side spin with pendulum and reverse pendulum.
  8. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Thanks for the detail DE, I can 100% see what you are getting at and I think I can visualise the stroke mechanics we‘re after. The challenge is getting my body to do it. I’ll focus on that tomorrow at practice and work slowly to try and ensure I minimise upper arm and maximise forearm, wrist and...
  9. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    I can do that at my club - watch this space!
  10. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Thanks for the videos, I can see what they are both trying to achieve (in slightly different ways) - and I can see that the strokes are much more compact and focused around forearm and wrist (a bit like the BH loop which I guess by default has to be more compact and less shoulder focused) I was...
  11. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Hi NL I did watch this when you first posted it and liked the approach, but need to rewatch it and see what practical steps I can take to work on that wrist and whip. This weekend I spent some time on my FH trying to focus on whip and hips - does this look more like it or is it still miles...
  12. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Ok LDM and friends - here's last nights story (of 3rds..) In short, I won 1/3 but the 1 was against their top player (Tony) who I have never beaten before. He was 2-0 up and 10-9 match point up in 3rd and somehow I managed to claw back that game and then then win the next 2 fairly easily to...
  13. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Thanks for the very kind words of support, that made me smile. My match was mixed - I beat their no 1 player 3-2 after being match point downing game 3 so I am very pleased with that. I lost however to the other two players who I should have beaten. I will share video later..
  14. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    I will be repeating that mantra in my head at tonights match - wish me luck!
  15. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    I often find that by playing the shots I want to learn and focus on in matches (usually more offensive / less pushing) I will win more points by taking a pro-active and intentional approach. When I forget to do this and revert to safety I often lose anyway and then feel terrible for lacking the...
  16. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    Good points - finding a way to slow the rhythm if things are not going well and relaxing grip is a good call. That's been a painful season so far for you - I am not much better but the most recent win I had was against a very good pimple player who I had never come close to beating. I had no...
  17. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    You have my deepest sympathy - I can resonate fully with this and it mirrors my own experiences completely. My coach has even said that he doesn't recognise the player I send him in my videos vs the player that turns up to lessons every Friday! Tightness kills so many of my shots, but it also...
  18. How Did I Win or Lose a Match?

    This applies to many of us - it is my biggest issue right now too..
  19. Should I boost my Rozena rubbers?

    My experience is very different. My coach boosts his T05 and I also boost my D05 with a layer of Falco. The results have consistently been excellent for me (with T05 & D05) - rubbers seem to take the booster well and play beautifully afterwards. I have seen many pro/top level players use boosted...
  20. Ultimate battle between Viscaria and W968

    I have a Viscaria that I like a lot, I imagined that a golden Viscaria would be the equivalent of a W968 to an HL5
