  3. Backhand service return %

    Not going back to inverted yet.
  4. Backhand service return %

    Cheers, it is difficult to do lots of variation IMO with the short pimples, if I roll back or play slow or push the third ball gets destroyed. I am considering twiddling and doing some spinny bh retunrs with the hurricane.
  5. Backhand service return %

  6. Backhand service return %

    Here is a video of my serve return on Sunday at a tournament. All 3 players are higher ranked than me, a fair bit higher, In theory they should always beat me. I have beaten the last opponent once, sometimes i get a set often not. I feel like serve return is the biggest difference between us...

    It tend to be the longer lower ones that cause me trouble, the short ones I am getting better at whacking or touching back.
  8. Backhand service return %

    As always some great advice!! I think I was asking if my terrible return percentage was affecting my results, which it clearly is. On the same day I beat a much stronger opponent in the morning I returned every serve to my bh in all 3 sets. I am trying to attack all serves to my bh with the...

  12. Short Pimples on a carbon blade! Yinhe M202

    When I have tried briefly to use short pips forehand not enjoyed it. I only played soft in this match at times because opponent was not attacking, I was very hot and not feeling that well. Always felt in control though.
  13. Short Pimples on a carbon blade! Yinhe M202

    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.
  14. Afrobro's Handmade Blades

    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!!
