Yeah I bought one. Months ago when I started this thread. And once again months later to confirm my original sentiment will bash it again. But I didn't buy it the second time. Just hit with it. And yes it's the worst tec I have ever come across. PERIOD.
You better buy another one in a couple of weeks just to be sure. :shock:
PK does make non-kinetic models too.

Yes. And those would be the only models that I would consider. I actually appreciate the build quality of the PK frames. It's just a shame that they implemented a bad tech idea into their current lineup.
How much longer do you plan on whining about this? Is it really bad technology or is it just your technique that's bad?
It amazes me that instead of looking at yourself, you're blaming a completely innocuous use of minute particles - akin to sand.
Go read the extensive reviews both on TT and on the TW site for the PK kinetic frames - going back at least 15 years. You're about the only person that finds the frames inconsistent because of the kinetic technology. That should really make your question yourself.
Please advise
My technique is sound. I assure you. I have a forehand that most 4.5s can't keep up with. I love just about every brand. But moving particles are just simply A BAD IDEA. any way you slice it. If the thread makes you unhappy, then I suggest you move on, and click the unsubscribe option

how about some video proof?
*proof. ..
Some video proof of what exactly?
see the part in bold.........your forehand that most 4.5's can't deal with....meaning you consider yourself a 5.0 pretty much.
Let's see some video to back up your claims. I am pretty sure it will never happen.
Ok, now it is on baby.
$1,000 and only backhands.
I'd like to see this match.

JACK BUDDY, YOU ARE A 2.5 ON YOU BEST DAY.. i will bet up to $1,000 to back up my claim if you would like to take me up on it.

Are you really going to run around all your forehands and hit just backhands ?
Really like to see this. I just don't see it happening.
I know where I would put my money on, lol !!
OP hasn't thought it through obviously (just like his "moving particles theory) But he can make up any challenge he likes, since it will never happen. Tell him to come to Atlanta and let's do it.
I only live 30 mins from the airport. If he's a legit 4.0 and can beat me with only backhands, then I will reimburse him for his plane fare. I don't think there is ANY 4.0 that could beat me with only backhands. What is he going to do when I hit every serve to his forehand?

I will post videos next week when my partner is back. What is a good way to video. ? From an iPhone ? Do I need a tripod?
ROFL! I figured this entire thread was trolling and this post proves it.
I'm around your level and will take your bet about beating me with your BH only :lol:
Be hilarious pounding shots to your FH side and watching you attempt to run around everything with your BH.

IPhone works fine. I just bungee it to the back fence with the "eye" in the middle of the fence links. I use a small, think bungee cord.
Bud. You have 30,000 posts. So it shocks me that you could be so wrong in identifying me as a troll. Au contraire mon fraire. I am as real as you can get. Just because my sig says Fedace, don't assume. As far as playing you with my backhand only, well I have never seen you play. And it's too late now. If anyone reading this thread is ever in the Central Jersey area, Long Branch to be exact, I would love to hit the courts with you.
My money says this exchange is going to end with a whimper or an equipment failure.
a reverse backhand lob or a reverse backhand push/slice on the forehand side.. ?? I have played and beaten many 4.0/4.5 players with this way.. it's call "Tous backhand".. every shots you have to play with your backhand grip including the ove head except the serve.. I once even made a bet on a backhand serve.. what you do is low backhand slice serve.. It depends on the players that you bet against actually.. It is much easier than people thought.. If you have a strong OHBH specially the slice backhand, you can beat the opponent with Tous backhand b/c they will target 99% on your forehand side so when you ready to return serve, you stay way way out to your forehand and force them to hit an ace or slice wide to your backhand.. An advanced player can run around hit a slice backhand or neutral the ball back to the court and get ready for the next shots.. You can see this kind of bet quite frequently in orange county.. Lots of Vietnamese players use to play this way and they bet thousand of dollars.. I dont know who the OP is or what his tennis skills but certain 4.0/4.5 guy play extremely well with this way.. They can't hit a forehand and running around hit with the backhand..
Claiming minute particles in PK frames ruin your game and then claiming you can beat someone running around every BH is trolling in my book.
As you can see many have stopped taking you seriously.
Thanks Jack. My partner gets back next week. I'll figure something out with the iPhone /video when I get back on the courts.
I just thought of a technical glitch. Can Dan hit left handed backhands when they play?
You think that will make things easier? Switching hands while the ball is coming and then hitting a backhand with your non-dominant hand? Sure, I'll allow that
Carry on boys...
lol.
I am going to try and find a really good local 4.0 or 4.5 volunteer to play me using only backhands just to show how difficult it really is and I will report back the score. I can't even imagine them taking 1 game in a set.
I will try and find someone with a strong backhand as well.

Hehe, why not make a video? I would love to see someone running around their forehand in order to hit a backhand return on a sliced serve on it way out of the deuce court

U can't imagine one game in a set. Not very logical Jack. Have you ever heard of service games for starters. You think you're gonna win any service games against a 4.0? I doubt it. Unless your opponent had a myriad of unforced errors. And again, I doubt that. So now that we've blown your mind and shown uiu how you're automatically gonna lose 3 games in the set, all we have to do is break your 2.5 serve once. Starting to see the grand scheme of things?
Hey Jack, do you have a link to your videos handy?
here is a set i played against "dimcomer"
http://tt.tennis-warehouse.com/showpost.php?p=8366821&postcount=1
I admit I look horrible on video, but I can beat most 3.5's more than half the time and
4.0's about 30-40% of the time.
you are a 3.0/3.5 . (thats not a bad thing) im giving you an upgrade.. this video proves that. if youre beating 4.0s, they shouldnt be 4.0's. but whatever tomatoes tomaatos. it would be a tough match . my backhand only vs u. probably be a very close game.
