First of all, sorry for the lousy angle, the perimeter tarps at indoor facilities are always a wildcard of whether the angle is good or not. And this time it wasn't. However, I still think the footage is pretty great for entertainments sake. This was for a 4.0-4.5 league and I'd played and lost against this guy a couple times already. @Max G. knows him. He's calm and collected as long as he's got a comfortable lead, but will turn into quite the chatterbox if you can get up a break or so. I figured I'd lose to him again so I picked that night to compare some wood frames in matchplay. First up was a standard run-of-the-mill dept store level woodie, followed by the Davis TopSpin Diagonally strung frame. The Davis was bought NOS, and luckily I was given a slip of stringing instructions to give to my local pro shop, who did a bang out job stringing it. (Technifibre X-One Biphase 16 @50lbs). The Davis can definitely produce some great spin for the time, far more than a standard wood. And the literature made sure to clarify that the racket is perfectly legal for all major tennis leagues!
Anyways, enjoy the video and pics!
Video is just a collection of decent or noteworthy points, leading up to the drama at the end. Match went down as him forfeiting lol.
Round 2 - better play and camera angles, and a more sane opponent...
