    Junior Tennis in NYC

    That post just shows the kind of person you are to be quite honest. And I'm not ripping into NYC Tennis unless stating facts like it's very weak is saying something completley untrue. You on the otherhand no nothing about me and are posting under a message board username bashing me, shows your...

    TW Review: HEAD YouTek Prestige Mid

    I love the racquet to be honest, I strung mine at 60 pounds with Techifibre Red code/Sensation combo. Going to try a lower tension now

    Junior Tennis in NYC

    There really isn't a solution. The programs in NYC are very weak as said before. It's just become more and more about money. The program at Westside is decent but alot of families have issues with money. It's sad when kids who're supposed to be representing the East don't even play in the East...

Haig Schniderman is playing 3 for Columbia who is ranked 50 in the country. Jo Michalsin is playing one for Fairfield and they make the NCAA...

    Junior Tennis in NYC

    First off if you could read properly I said I lost my only two matches of HS my freshman year when I was changing to a one hander. I was 14 years old then. Thanks for reading! Second Eastern tennis as a whole is WEAK. Whens the last time an Eastern player did anything at Kalamazoo or even be...

    Junior Tennis in NYC

    I was ranked 2 in 16's and 3 in 18's in the Eastern Section. The people you named: Max Haskin, Shutov, Klonski, Roth won't even be starting for their college teams next year and you're trying to argue they are good players? Gary is the only decent player you named. Raude is from Cardozo, you...

    Junior Tennis in NYC

    You keep blabbing about how NYC tennis has a solid foundation and what not, yet you fail to mention any names. It's nice to believe that NYC is good enough to compete against other teams but they just aren't. Was that really a rebuilding year for Horace Mann? They lost no one and had their best...

    Junior Tennis in NYC

    Yeah when did McEnroe play? Yeah thought so, want to name the last great tennis player from NYC since 1990? Yeah ok didn't think so. Horace Mann basically the top HS team in NYC went to California 3 years ago and finished 9th out of 12 teams. Want to keep arguing or are you done living in the...

    Head Youtek Speed Pro

    I get them for free so it really wasn't that big of a waste it's just annoying playing with a stick for 4 months and never really feeling the racquet :/ I've switched to the Youtek Prestige Mid and so far it's felt good so we'll see

    Head Youtek Speed Pro

    I switched to this racquet from the Microgel Prestige Mid and I felt the racquet was just garbage... maybe it was the string pattern or because it was 16-19 What are your opinions?

    Junior Tennis in NYC

    NYC Tennis is basically garbage, I played for a high school there and when we played other schools it was a joke. Some kids barely knew how to hold a racquet properly. If you want to get better you need to find a private coach, only way.

    Making the switch....

    In September I needed new racquets because I cracked my Head Microgel Presitiges Mids to the Youtek Speed Pro (Whites) and I hated them. My whole game just fell apart, lost my forehand and slice. I've asked my college coach to get me the new Head Youtek Prestiges Mids and I was just wondering...

    I'll give you a quick breakdown since my team plays every Ivy Brown/Dartmouth are out along with Princeton, the favorites are Columbia, UPenn, Harvard, Cornell, and Yale Cornell is not very good, they have a bunch of over achievers and both their top players Jacklistch and Fife are...
