I have looked carefully at tennis videos of strokes for years and missed things in front of my face. Once these things are noticed, I always notice them after that. Over the last year, I've been paying more attention to the orientation of the chest on the kick serve and noticed that the...

During the recent CA wildfires we had very bad air quality. Our advice - heard many times - was to "stay inside and close the doors and windows". While learning about smoke, HEPA air cleaners and other subjects, I found CO2 and its relation to building ventilation to be a very interesting...

For the kick serve there are many disagreements in the forum posts that could be resolved easily if a few videos were taken. What is needed is a strong kick serve that bounces clearly to the right and a 240 fps camera with a fast shutter - many smartphones will do - and small motion blur...

The footwork on the tennis serve and the jump is not an easy subject to understand. Sometimes one foot does not seem to push on the ground, ??. The serving technique of Pete Sampras is one successful footwork and jump technique that is particularly clear to observe. What does Sampras's back...
