This is a match against my son, proper match in summer league. I am better than him but he has a 5-2 record against me going into this match.
Not the best game in history. I play too many 'pussy' shots.
I am pleased with my put away shots with Hurricane though, considering it is Hurricane.
It feels very fast and quite bouncy, I am quite surprised how fast it feels. With Hurricane on the fh though it was still very spinny and controllable.
I am very very pleased with the quality, you really do a beautiful job on these blades!!
The limba-limba-textreme-ayous-textreme-limba-limba blade was made for me.
The quality is excellent, really well made, Feels better than any mainstream blade I have ever tried.
I have been trying different pimples on bh for 2 seasons with varied success.
Last night without any training I used reversed (Evolution EL-S) on bh, I thought i played ok considering?
I am the handsome looking older guy!!
Because I feel the gains from short pimples are not really outweighing my losses.
eg spinny bh opener, spinny bh push I have decided to go fully back to reversed both sides.
As my bh would need hours of work and training with the short pimple (and no one really wants to train with the pimple...
Played another tournament yesterday, played much better with the Force Pro and 1.9 tenergy on fh again. Harder work but made me play better.
I was putting the ball away well with my fh against better players to, not enough to win but enough to feel encouraged and positive for a change.
Carl,
thanks for the pointers. Clearly my problems are mostly footwork and years of timid pushes based. It has helped clear my mind about equipment.
I need to stick with the short pimples and work on stuff properly at training!!
I have been trying to meet the fh a bit earlier recently and...
Yes the trouble of posting videos of your weaknesses is it exposes them to people who may not have known, but then if everybody plays this way I will get better at it.
Ha ha
Here is another match with me playing a modern player with reversed both sides.
Be interested in any suggestions about returning his chop serves to my bh, which I felt got him through the game in the end??
cheers I am trying to take the fh earlier, but also this is a stiffer blade and i think it helps with my fh control.
for some reason i find it hard to hit flat with the sp and I am very close to giving up on them.
too much muscle memory built in to this old body of mine
Trouble is hard to roll that ball back with my SP, it just slides down them when I try and play a slower roll.
Something I need to practice a bit.
But noted and will try and train a bit on it and what you suggest!!
