  1. Racket sanding (did I do it right?)

    Translation: "I wouldn't suggest putting polish on the racket head. First, you will lose feeling, contact and the wood will play completely differently. Secondly, there is a possibility that the tires will not stick, because the glue does not stick well to the varnish. I've had it and I'm...
  2. Racket sanding (did I do it right?)

    Translation: "I would like to varnish it all, do you know of any material that is like the stiga factory nct? That which binds the surface but is impossible to understand"
  3. Racket sanding (did I do it right?)

    Translation: "I don't mean varnishing the handle, but the surface between the rubber and the handle"
  4. Racket sanding (did I do it right?)

    Google Translate translates this as: "I was thinking of applying varnish, but a friend who has applied it didn't help me at all, my hands sweat a lot and the racket slides, I don't know if it plays a role in penhold though"
  5. Racket sanding (did I do it right?)

    Google translate translates this as: "How much you "eat" it with the sandpaper is purely a personal matter: Depending on how you hold the racket, sand it as much as it doesn't bother you. However, note the following: Since this particular spot is vulnerable to sweat and moisture, I would...

    Yeah. Really hard to understand what is actually happening without seeing footage of the issue.

    What I said about FXP is how I like them. You might feel differently than I do. Nothing wrong with trying H3 if you want to. The blade I suggested should be fine. The blades you were looking at would be as well. With a rubber like H3 on FH you probably would be better off with something...

    I think you could get a Tibhar Stratus Power Wood and FXS on both sides and it would probably be fine for you. It could be FXP too. I like MXP and FXP better for me than the S versions....for me, they feel more alive and dynamic. It is not as easy to generate spin with them but they are more...
  9. Which side of the ball I should flick in some circumstances?

    Are you nominating him to post video tutorials on how to do a BH Flick?

    If money isn't tight, get whatever you want. If you don't like the blade or the rubbers, you can always change the part you don't love.

    I guess it is a reunion day. It is good to see both of you guys back in action even if, only for a few moments.

    Yep. And by the point of contact, I think his arm is not in that space between the ball and the net: So, he does pull the arm back and out of the way, he just does it after the ball falls back down below head height. And I think it would be hard to toss the ball that high and pull the...

    Interesting, I always interpreted the rule to mean that the arm had to be gotten out of the way before the ball fell to that height: that the ball had to be visible, and there had to be a clear view from the ball, wherever it is, and the vision of the returner (or the net): that, if the ball is...

    Interesting read on this. If the ball is that high, and there is nothing that would stop you from seeing the ball, and nothing directly in between the ball and the net (if you were looking from any part of the net, you would see the ball) can you explain what makes you say Der is doing...

    1st, read what NextLevel wrote. 2nd, you are talking about images where the ball is above Der_Echte's head, how can his arm be in between the ball and the line of site of the receiver (NextLevel) if the ball is above his head and arm. In all of the stills you made in your post, there is...

    Mikey, first, have you read the first post in this thread? If you have not, I recommend you do so. The first post in this thread informs people who can and cannot comment on TT play in the thread. Here, I will quote the first post so it is here too: Basically, it says only the people on...

    I would say, learn to serve without thinking you are imitating the pros. Watch the video NextLevel posted from Brett Clarke and see if you can focus on how your racket contacts the ball and how you get the racket head to accelerate so the racket is moving fast with spin contact.....that is...

    Copying pros can get you in trouble because, you may see things that they are not doing. And you have not spent the time they have training, or the time they have in their bodies. Each pro has strokes that look slightly different. Part of that has to do with the training they have been doing...

    The phone in a shoe, with the camera lens up, and the shoe put onto something like a chair or counter, can be a very effective tripod if you are filming from someone's phone. And when you film, you want to have the camera far back enough to see you and at least most of the table, if not all of...
