  1. Re-Building the BEAST

    Yes I think this would be the best solution!!
  2. Re-Building the BEAST

    Thanks Der, when you say slowly? How slowly? Presumably the heat breaks the bond from the glue? Just been through all ten pages and found the answer!! I dont want a beast mod, just want a fatter handle on the solo, what do you think about taking handle off, adding a play same size as handle...
  3. Re-Building the BEAST

    What sort of heat did you use? I want to put bigger handles on my Xiom Solo?

    FANTASTIC HEREFORD 1 STAR SENIOR TOURNAMENT TODAY. Bubbles of 6 groups based on ranking, all very competitive and enjoyable!!
  5. How do you feel win or lost at 11-0?

    It is disgusting and disrespectful to give a mercy point to another adult player. It is patronizing beyond belief. I have beaten a player 11-0 in first set then lost 3-1 in match, it means nothing really. Don't do it to kids (beginners) or your granny, but do not give a point, just play a bit...
  6. Advice on BH technique?

    Maybe if I gain confidence from using pips, and improve on some of the many things I need too. Maybe some day I will use inverted again on backhand, but even then I would go for Chinese rubber or defensive rubber probably for the control it gives a player.
  7. Advice on BH technique?

    It is not just serve return! If I play those shots with inverted they all come back, every one is used to that. The shots I play with MP are harder for me to play but they are more rewarding when I play them well. I know it does not look that way, but in last 18 months since my switch to...
  8. Advice on BH technique?

    The only points I lost with my bh that are not in this clip are bh pushes to serves which got whacked past me with third ball winners. And the only other points I lost did not involve my bh. But Zyu if I use an inverted and play a good bh loop, topspin drive I am then the same player as...
  9. Advice on BH technique?

    Looking at some of my older videos, this stepping back thing is quite a recent thing, I am quite sure it is a reaction to trying to control a more repulsive blade. I am going to remedy this by going back to the Xiom Solo initially, and if this does not remedy the issue I will go back to the...
  10. Advice on BH technique?

    I think this is because I was trying to use a faster bat with lower arc and did not trust myself closer in. I don't normally do this, it was strange.
  11. Advice on BH technique?

    Hmm, I could try I always fear with long serves they will kill it past me. But I could try!!

  14. Advice on BH technique?

    What nobody wants to tell me I don't move and I should be using reversed on backhand!!
  15. TSP Swat: Unpopular Popularity

    This was largely my feelings too, I thought it would be stiffer. I think it is closer too a 5ply in feel than a traditional 7 ply. It feels a bit soft on bh pimples! I am playing with a pulled hamstring though, so cant really play properly.
  16. TSP Swat: Unpopular Popularity

    The QC is excellent, looks and feels very pleasant. Could this be my true love!! Even the handle looks like wood!
  17. TSP Swat: Unpopular Popularity

    I also just ordered a Swat from TT11 for the same reason as nymose!!
  18. Advice on BH technique?

    More backhands with Spinlord Keiler, technique still requires improvement!! Video 1 Sanwei Fextra Video 2 Force Pro Blue
  19. Inner Carbon Blades

    I think I would not like them on the fh. I like my xiom solo but the handle is too thin. I need to get someone to put a fatter handle on it. If it had a stiga legend handle it would be awesome
