Welcome to LYN Tennis Thread v8

This thread is intended first and foremost for people to share and discuss about our favourite game - "TENNIS" and secondly to make new friends and to have fun on the court. Feel free to ask some of our resident sifus here on tennis equipments (racquets, strings, customizations), tennis techniques, great deals and places to play. Would love to have more active members posting their experiences and sharing their thoughts. Mostly let's keep this thread clean and try to STICK to tennis related talks though sometimes we can always have some fun jousting and poking at each other smile.gif

Bro, wake up la, in this world nothing is without sacrifice...... if u want to win, invest abitla, always say not enough this, no money to have this, no that no this, sell those many racquets of yours, just keep one then go buy training balls and basket, ask someone good in miri to drill you with those balls......if u want, i have contact of some coaches there to guide you but of course if budget permits la:)

But, if budget is really a matter, let me give you some free advice, you only need 2 things to win, consistency is what you need first, once you develop this, it will take you into a few rounds in a tournament. get your consistency right by drilling some rallies with a good sparring partner who is willing to play with you.

Once you master consistency then pm me, i will give you the 2nd thing u need, this one will take you deep into tournament level.

Tada!!!! refurbished, new 17g strings @ 55lbs, new replacement grip, new overgrip, YAN! time to be the ultimate wall and this time the wall will hit back:)

user posted image

abit of review hehe, tried with 16g synthetic babolat at 53lbs and some unknown grips.....

basically a racquet for swing happy player where it provides control, need to be more aggressive as it does not give as much power as those oversize or thick beam stick. really need to be precise on this as off centre hit will make the ball fly in different directions or a weak return. though feels heavy holding it but the swingweight is quite light:)
*
wat stinrgs u using ? poly ? actually i heard quite a few said the microgel radical mp has nicer feel... our taiko Altezza. But so far using the youtek i luv it since u can swing hard at it .. n still able to not overshoot too much ...

hoho.. to let go my second 4D300 since i have 2 of them, the 300 tour version is my current target~ hehe

as i remember, yan used it once...
*
yah i used to hav both the 4D300 and also the 4D300Tour smile.gif ... still feel the 4D300 is a very easy racq to use.. tho against hard hitters and flat hitters a bit hard to handle and not that stable. But overall v nice racq. So you going for the 4D300T? u know right the string pattern is different .. ..
