Who did you contact to get this?

Yes he is younger. I am very intrigued as to who you are right now! But I won't ask.

Thanks for the compliment! Don't want to big myself up to much but I think I play slightly above my rating, I just don't play enough tournaments to have a high rating. Do you know my brother aswell?

Bretto, apparently you know me aswell?

Pete I'm just going to stop listening to you. Sorry but I'm starting to get frustrated. I'm 18, 6 foot 3, 6.2 and have recorded serves in the 120's. I think i hit the ball harder than you. Sorry to everyone else im starting to sound as arrogant as Pete!

OK but to be honest, you stink of desperation.

Yeh i got them working. To be honest you seem like a solid 8.2, maybe an 8.1. One thing that has annoyed me slightly was that you said about my play "i could easily hit those type of shots and never miss" or something to that point. In your video you dont seem to be hitting the ball with as...

Take into account the fact that I haven't seen the videos yet. You shouldn't take our opinions as more valid and truthful just cos we are higher rated. We are all tennis players and im sure we all know what good technique is. And can you please stop saying "8.1 plays like a 6.2" etc etc. if...

i'll wait for the video, thanks.

I really hate having to bring my rating up again but if you can hi those kind of shots all day long without missing why are you only an 8.2? I look forward to your video.

What did you think then? Horrible and rough?

Cheers, how can you see where my shots are landing?:confused:

I just turned 18 on friday. I'm playing with my 14 year old brother, I mentioned him earlier in this thread. Yeh i saw the dog! Funny stuff!

Cheers! 10

Plus there is a little bit of lead in the handle. Thought i'd give you all the details haha!

http://uk.youtube.com/user/bwest91tennis Some videos of me playing. try to watch both side and back views, gives a pretty different perspective! Unfortunately i dont think ive got enough content in their for my course so i'll have to go out videoing again! Not realyl going for it in the...

It's pretty good, a massive step up from GCSE! Literally huge. I got a B last year but re-took a module in January. Only need like 3 marks so hopefully will bump up to an A! I'd recommend it for sure. I've got some videos of me. Hopefully put them up soon.

Instead of all this arguing about how ratings mean nothing and how "I play like a 6.1", why don't you upload some videos of yourselves playing so we can see! I need a video for me A level PE course so I will tyr to get it on here when I record it.

petekbladetour1, i don't want to be a downer but, i'd give up on your hopes of getting sponsored by wilson, seriously. In fact, stop thinking about getting any kind of sponsorship. I know someone, played junior davis cup for GB last year. Will Wilson sponsor him? No.

Yeh, I've played at Welti. That place is ridiculous!!

I played county cup there last year! Nice place.

I hope you realise rackets aren't just "inch thick peices of graphie". they are hollow and have to be moulded.

Tennis is around 90% lactic acid system, the last 10% is the phosphocreatine system. This system produces ATP (the only form of energy the body can use) quicker than both lactic acid and aerobic systems, but can't produce very much so is used in sports like 100 metre sprint. So yes, I suppose...

I've read a few posts in this thread saying you need to train more reps/lower weight or do running or endurance exercises so your not tired out between points. In my opinion, this is rubbish. Tennis uses the lactic acid energy system. Meaning during a point your body is producing energy...

I have no idea! Hopefully he will have a good winter and go up again anyway!

I can see your point. Right now, though its more important to be educated and get some GCSE's. Tennis is a hobby, it's great fun and him and I have both made some fantastic friends and have some great memories. That's what tennis is, not really a career option.

Do I know you? Yeh but we are appealing he go up, he had like a million wins and beat a 5.2 and 2 6.1's? For the mean time i'm calling him a 6.2! lol

If you want to be able to lift heavier weights; you lift heavy weight. If you want to have greater aerobic endurance; you do endurance training. Tennis is neither of these. Brute strength exercise's use the phospho creatine system to provide energy, endurance exercise's use the aerobic...

Maybe, But if your not hitting the top 150 your not making ends meet financially. So playing futures your whole life doesn't make any sense. Tofi, I'd rather not name names, but i'm sure Alexio92 will back me up about my brother.
