    Hitting lower trajectory, driving topspin forehands

    Hmm rings a bell - I got good results when I tried this but felt like I was forcing the 'wipe' with my forearm after my shoulders had finished rotating, rather the wipe being part of the natural acceleration of the racquet (which it should be from what I've gathered from the forums?) I.e. I was...

    Hitting lower trajectory, driving topspin forehands

    Currently having difficulties with unwanted loopy topspin shots - whenever I really try upping the swing speed to get more topspin I just end up hitting a very high trajectory, albeit very spinny, shot. Hit with a semi-western grip and have a forehand that kind of resembles Djoker's (I wish!)...

    comments about Adizero feathers

    Personally for me these are extremely comfortable and the shoe fits my feet like a glove. Wouldn't say I have extremely narrow feet either.

    YT PP - what are your fave strings?...

    Hmm but BHBR was less dynamic than tour bite to you then? I guess i'll be finding out any soon(ish) anyway and i'll definitely let you know how cyclone and black magic go, really looking forward to trying the latter seems to get a very positive response here... Yea PL2 was like that with me at...

    Why don't people trust good polys that sell for very low prices?

    Huh:confused: whilst tourbite is great but here in uk its not that much cheaper than lux etc...more middle class in terms of price :P

    YT PP - what are your fave strings?...

    In the same position as you mate will keep you updated on what i try! Have BHBR, cyclone, black magic and hyperion on the way (although you say you've tried hyperion?) Meanwhile...have you tried PL2? I have good memories of that string

    YT PP - what are your fave strings?...

    Hey Big Kahuna just wondering if you could tell me if you found any major loss in spin potential or control with your poly/syngut hybrid compared to full poly e.g. bhbr/ cyclone 17g/ tornado 17g thanks!

    YT PP - what are your fave strings?...

    Just broke my tourbite 17g in my YTPPs @ 52lbs More spin less power compared to PLII 16g..that's the only comparison I have. PLII probably a bit softer once broken in imo. Looking to try typhoon/black magic/ one of the big hitter strings and maybe something else...

    Which company has the best QC?

    Just got my second Head YTPP, a year after the first. Had a small circular sticker with Q/C E printed on it. Any significance? Haven't had a chance to weigh them yet

    Need EXCELLENT ball pocketing and LOW power!

    A low powered (co)poly strung at low tensions has decent pocketing imo. This is based on me using PLII at 48 in a YTPP could really feel the ball digging into the stringbed

    why does my shoulder hurt?

    Forget about equipment do you arm your serve a lot instead of using proper shoulder rotation i.e.reach up to swing at the ball with shoulders parallel to ground? I watched this video where the guy talked about how raising the arm above the plane of the shoulder and rotating results in the...

    So what do YOU think is the REAL reason behind Djokovic spectacular transformation?

    Because, after reading all the threads on tt bashing him, he woke up one day and thought enough was enough time to shut all the haters up.

    Microgel Radical Review (For Any That Still Care)

    Radicals are perfectly fine against heavy hitters if you have good technique. Anyhow for the power a bit of lead couldn't do much harm. For me an extra overgrip added enough really. Radical is a great racquet for playing around!

    Interval Training

    Take it your 'rest' is light jogging? If you're just starting out with interval training you don't have to kill yourself from day one could do something along the lines of: 40s at effort 5 -> 20s at effort 6/7 or something. Sprinting at full pace would obviously be effort 10 with lying on your...
