Tennis Pointer Review
I am not sure you have heard about the tennis pointer, but it is a training tool developed by Jiri Bartos who used it to coach top boys player Jonáš Forejtek. The video of Forejtek hitting with the tennis pointer went viral so there was apparently interest around this tool which pretty much looks like […]
Dominic Thiem’s Racquet
I have created another pro player racquet video and this time I talk about Dominic Thiem’s racquet. He has made major strides in his game and will be a real threat next year. 2019 was Dominic’s best year on tour so far. He earned almost 8 million dollars in prize money, won 5 titles and […]
Stan Wawrinka’s Racquet
People seem to like my series of short pro player videos, so I will continue with them. The turn has come to Stan Wawrinka’s racquet. Stan Wawrinka looked to be out of tennis for good with a major knee injury. But two surgeries, lots of rehab and a bunch of wobbly matches later he was […]
The Racquet of Andy Murray
Since people seemed to like my video about the three goats, I will continue with the format. Next up is the racquet of Andy Murray. If you haven’t seen the documentary about Andy Murray’s injury time-out, I really recommend that as a great insight into the struggles of a pro player. You really get a […]
Racquets for Coaching
Are you a tennis coach? Do you struggle to coach properly with your current racquet? Here are my thoughts on racquets for coaching. If you are a coach, you are likely an advanced tennis player (well I hope so!) and you might use a racquet that is heavier than average. But you are probably coaching […]
The Racquets of the Three GOATs
I thought I would try something a little bit different that is making a video about the racquets of the three GOATs – Federer, Djokovic, and Nadal. The idea of this video was to explain why the three GOATs use different racquets. Federer, Djokovic, and Nadal all have different styles as tennis players and you […]
Asics Gel Resolution 8 Shoe Review – First Impressions
There is one shoe I have used my entire “career” as my go-to model and that is the Asics Gel Resolution. So here is my Asics Gel Resolution 8 Shoe Review. The fit of this shoe has always appealed to me and my foot and almost all models have been really good. The only issue […]
Volkl C10 Pro Racquet Review
Here is another classic racquet. A flexible, heavy, spin-friendly stick for advanced players. Here is the Volkl C10 Pro Racquet Review. The Volkl C10 Pro is a true classic racquet. It has been around for many years but has kept its flexible feel, substantial weight, and thin beam. It is simply a great frame for […]
Classic racquet: Head Ti Radical Mid Plus
Here is another classic racquet: the HEAD Ti Radical Mid Plus. This time, fellow tennis nerd, Ferenc Ferdinánd Weisz do the reviewing. The relationship with this racquet was a very determinative childhood experience for me. My first non-cheap alloy racquet was a Zebra Radical Mid Plus which we bought used. In this time I had […]
HEAD Experimental Tour Preview
I have been testing a new string from HEAD called HEAD Experimental Tour. It will be released in January as “Lynx Tour” (as far as I know). HEAD Experimental Tour is a champagne-colored string with a hexagonal profile. It plays with a nice blend of control and spin. Some players who have tested this string […]
