Glad I have watched Federer match this morning. Though I kinda sleepy coz I woke up suddenly at 3am and the LIVE already started.

Hurry guys match till 12pm.

On other note, did someone have cheap tennis shoe for sale? Below rm 70 would be nice

well here have Dunlop entry lvl shoe for rm 80. here i mean Kelantan. I have bought it b4 n quite satisfied with it. but my problem with every shoe that I bought for playing tennis is, the left shoe always became the first to get hole.

I dunno how is that happen. I dun care bout the performance of the shoe n only focusing on the longevity of the insole. if the shoe can withstand 3++ month usage on a 6 days per week, 2 hours session each of training, I'm ok with that.

That's one heavy racket! I think it probably 13 g or something.. My coach got that racket and he has an arm like Nadal lol!

guys will Astro broadcast Monte Carlo Open? It's today or tomorrow?

Update
I've checked Astro TV Guide and there it is the Monte Carlo Live! Tomorrow at 4.30pm. But sadly though, we'll not gonna see Djoker as he withdrawn from the tournament due to knee injuries. Man... sad.gif

Just got back from hitting. smile.gif . Ya man tk, this racket needs very good preparation. I baseballed one home run. Haha after just a few strokes . But when it got the sweet spot it is damn nice. The plowthrough of the racket makes the ball go very fast. Very nice for hitting flat shot. On volleys I was very impressed with it's stability and easiness to control the shot. But after awhile my arms get very tired man. The head fibergel strings are quite good man. Very soft n nice feel. Quite easy to spin the ball.

Added on April 10, 2011, 12:51 pmIt's around 340 to 350 g .

Haha I've mistaken it with ounce. I wanna say 12 ounce actually. My personal racket is Wilson Kblade 93 Tour. 11+ ounce. Before this I'm using big grip that's not fitting in my hand. Now after I've got advice from my friends, I use only 2 grips and the racket feels more controllable and most importantly it's become light to swing. rclxms.gif

What tension do you use?
