hmmm seems like the others are working and studying until no reply, carto, can u call those registered to play and make sure, cos dowan any embarassing last minute no player for the sunway team.....

i will be on both side since im a neutral player, any of the two team players pengsan, shoe spoil, hair drop, hand pain, leg pain.....i will substitute hehehe

but will be there for while only to introduce both teams and support abit, bring your own water, food, shirt, underwear, towels and whatever u need during a match......there will be a convenient store where u can stock up on 100 plus and a canteen on food (at your own cost that is hehehe)

So those registered to play, come on, say ure ready:) bagi semangat sikit!!!!

sorry... stil got some questions....  sweat.gif

1. so i shouldnt string low tension with my kobra since its quite flex? and i shud try low 40's lbs on my ahem' stiffer racket?

Vobs wrote: u should not put low tension as you need a proper fluid strokes to maintain a control shot with such low tension, without those proper strokes it will fly like baseball.....smile.gif so if you can handle such low tension, by all means try lor, no harm ma if got budget:) just my two cent opinion....no harm intended

Additioal question:
a. so the low 40's lbs is to improve power or control? or depends on my stroke?

Vobs wrote: alot of people say low tension improve power, but i dont think it would (chicken and egg debate), cos low tension acts like a trampoline where by it pushes the ball further even without any power used thus alot of people will say its power when the ball is being hit long....also my two cents opinion, no harm intended.

b. what if i never had a problem with luxilon (or blackcode) at 60lbs? shud i stil try to string at 40's lbs and maybe it may suit me even better?

Vobs wrote: yes you can try as many types of tension as possible to see what suits u best if budget permits since u always say ure not rich but have custom made shoes, two racquets and nice nice stuff....smile.gif

c. do u suggest to string 40's lbs on a 100sq inch racket?

Vobs wrote: whatever suits your play will be best in regardless what tension or racquet size it may be:)

the above is from my experience and it may differ for different players with different strokes and muscles, i think Bro prae may have a more accurate answer to your question as he is more knowledgable:)

but prae.. im a poor man..

hehe i will use my string til it goes snap... even though it's low tension.. i got to love the 'feel' u think it will affect my arm on the long run?

the racquet im using is PSTGT "Plus" version.. should be the stiff stiff kind one...

now im on full synthetic bed which i find shiok for me.. at tension around 48lbs.. dunno by the time it putus god noes wat's the tension haha... u think it's ok if u use it til it snap by itself? oh ya the string gauge is 16g is u wanna noe..

Added on June 15, 2010, 12:03 pmhaha vobs.. my source gave me ur facebook... now i noe who u r d... haha.. LTAM coaches course ya...

Since you know who I am, do a full intro to me to be a fair gentleman:), and your source is a duck by giving people my facebook without my permission:) but anyway its a free world so im cool with it:) im flattered with your curiousity about me...thanks bro:)

hey, im looking to take up this sport.. any of u guys can gimme some tips on where to start? prolly like what racquet is suitable for beginners like me and the price range..  rclxms.gif
*
good to hear that ure trying this sports out, depending on ur seriousness in the sport, if u just want to try it out for fun then i recommend you join the sunway groups which are friendly and nice people, im sure some of them or even all of them will teach u some basics to see whether u like the sports or not.

if you want a more serious starting point, i recommend you go hire a coach (if budget permits)

Racquet depending on ur budget and your arm, below rm200 should get u a new adult racquet for beginners with strings. if u wanted a more serious racquet then rm300 should be able to get u some nice racquet too. if budget is a concern then look for second hand ranging from rm150 to rm300 depending on brands, conditions and demands.

Im actually selling a racquet that i recently bought, used for a session only, practically new, rm300 with strings, will add another set of strings for future usage, a grip, and a cover to top it all. its Kblade 98 wilson. check the racquet out at http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/Wilson_K_F...SON-KBLD98.html

PM me if ure interested:)

Nope bro vobs,never seen anyone here play like I said just for fun lah, don't put yourself down, tennis is a sports that must be played with confidence, if klboy use his apd-gt he also want to 'tembak' naughty panda! So in this respect, I give klboy a thumbs up!
I am not asking anyone to post their NTRP if they are uncomfortable, you don't even have to make a comment on anything, I did this as guess work as I only know you guys by your postings, I don't know your style of play, your strenghts/weakness, everything I know is by what you post, most of you have a very decent amount of knowledge, its applying it is where some of you go wrong, when in doubt just ask, or google it up.

wow, bro prae, never expected this reply as im just joking, i dont mind la as usual.....i know its for fun:) so lets have fun posting ya and apologies if offended:)
