Any information on these? I did a search and didn’t see anything on the 3.5s (lots of threads on the 3.0s). The TW Labor Day sale has this colorway for $45:

Snagged a couple pair. Worst case scenario is they don’t fit well and I send them back. I normally wear K-Swiss Hypercourt Supremes + ankle braces. Wondering if anyone has tried them and had thoughts/comparisons to other brands. @dr325i ?

Either way I’ll post my findings here, but at $45/pair, it’s almost as if I’d be losing money if I didn’t snag a few…

Those are not the PRO version. Those are basic model version.
With that, I only tried the original Sprint SF version and have not tried the 2.0, 3.0 or 3.5.
However, all Head guys at the HQ absolutely love the Spring PRO 3.5

The storm hit a relatively low population area so definitely not as bad as some other storms recently.
Good to hear. My daughter doesn’t live there anymore, btw. She quit the USTA and moved to Denver a year ago for a completely different job.

8 months later an old co-worker from the USTA reached out to her to tell her about a position at the ITA. Thought she’d be perfect, so she applied. She got it, and is now working for them. Thankfully it’s all remote work, so she didn’t have to relocate to Arizona.

My daughter is at the UF (Gainesville) but was away in Utah (yikes) during the storm...

Last trip to Fla. stayed in Spring Hill before attending a Wedding in Tampa. Storm hit either? Tampa still have a club downtown?

Sorry to hear that…(kidding…my daughter graduated from FSU ~ 4 years ago). Good that she was out of town and safe. We had to fly our daughter out a few times while she was at FSU.

Does your daughter play for the team? Mine didn’t (not good enough…4.0 level player), but she did play Club tennis and really enjoyed it. Actually was the president her senior year.

No, she is a Senior in the Sports Journalism and Management program. And she is a part of the Gators recruiting team this year, previously worked at ESPN Gainesville...
1.5 semesters to go, then we have only one (Razorback) left for 3 more years :)
And a 10 year old to follow
SEC or nothing (though the 10yo is set on UCLA at this time haha)

Nice! We thought we were done when our youngest graduated from OSU (…Oklahoma, not Ohio) last year. But, she was accepted into Virginia Tech this fall for a Masters program (trying to get into Vet School, which apparently is harder to get into than regular medical school).

Thankfully we had claimed her on our taxes for 2022, so she’s still considered a Virginia resident and gets in-state tuition…

On a side note…I apologize for the side conversations. I’ll post an update on the Sprint 3.5 LTD later this week. TW has already shipped them, so they should arrive by Wednesday.

Our middle daughters BF is on the full ride (baseball pitcher) at OSU and she is in Stillwater as we speak. Hopefully will find her way south this weekend (DFW)

In case anyone cares...my shoes arrived yesterday. At first I thought they were going to be a perfect fit, but then I stood up and started to walk around, and my toes were just touching the top of the shoe.

I ordered a 10.5, as the sizing chart said 'true' for length, but clearly they're a bit short. Not sure if I want to send them back for 11s...I feel like they're going to be a bit long.

in theory going up 1 half size should increase the length by 4-5mm and the width by 1-2mm. not sure if that is helpful though.
