    Alcaraz New Custom Shoes

    Yes my local Nike Store here in Orlando had some in the clearance rack. That was about a month ago. I looked the other day and there were no more left. They were women's size 11 btw but they fit perfectly

    Alcaraz New Custom Shoes

    I have 3 pair of VP1's that I am holding on for dear life. I love that shoe and anytime I can find it at the Nike Outlet or Nordstrom rack I grab them. Given Nike's history on letting their players wear older models and not allowing the rest of us to have them is par for the course for them...

    60 minutes Australia piece on Agassi and pickleball

    That was so good!!. His book was so revealing, one of my favorite reads. His struggles are so relatable and a good blueprint to follow in terms of dealing with what challenges life brings to all of us.

    What does Carlos need to improve to get back on top?

    What I observe as a teaching pro for over 40 years that drives me crazy with Alcaraz is his positioning after he serves. He seems to take too much time after serviing to get back behind the baseline., He often gets caught with a ball at his foot after a decent return and is in defense at the...

    What was Nike's tennis shoe line-up like in the 1980's if you exclude Mac's signatures, Air Trainer series, and Tech Challenge series?

    I would say true to fit, I have a very flat foot so the front spreads out but from my memory I bought and wore the shoes a couple of times after testing them and I remember them to be a reliable, durable shoe.

    What was Nike's tennis shoe line-up like in the 1980's if you exclude Mac's signatures, Air Trainer series, and Tech Challenge series?

    Great post and memories. I remember pouring over ********'s ads in World Tennis and Tennis magazine. I was fortunate enough in the 80's to be a Nike wear tester. I tested the Air Aces and Meadow Max's before they were released to the public and also the original Nike Air Trainer 1's. The R...

    The Rossignol Vectris line???

    I actually worked for Rossignol in the early 1990's. I traveled on tour promoting the t-shirts and clothing as well as the rackets including the Vectris line. Our most noteworthy players were Mal Washington, he wore the clothing and used the rackets before he switched to Yonex and Reebok...

    I was watching the US Men's Claycourt in Houston last night and I saw that Taylor Fritz was wearing what looks like another PE colorway for the Zoom Vapor X in yellow to match his polo shirt he was wearing?? Did anybody else see this and I am wondering what the other male Nike players will be...

    Official Wilson Clash thread

    I have been teaching and hitting with students with my Clash 100 and its just a touch light, but the flex feels good, its a nice racket to feed with. Youn can definitely can feel the dwell time of the ball on the strings. One of the more unique feeling rackets I have ever hit with, and I have...

    Shapovalov's Nike Shoes???

    Yes that is the rumor, I saw on the Nike Vapor X thread maybe Fall 2019, and confirmation that it was a Raptors PE version. Thanks @NastyWinners you were spot on, that's why I joined this forum because I couldn't find anything online about his shoes.

    Shapovalov's Nike Shoes???

    I cannot find any reference to what I assume are Nike Air Zoom Vapor X possibly Flyknit shoes that Denis Shapovalov is wearing (other than in this forum) I even DM him on his Instagram hoping he might throw me a bone on if and when they will be offered. I wore multiple colorways of the the...
