Just seen the new YT Prestige TW video reviews on YouTube and wanted to say how much better they are than the old ones (which were fine, but not great.)
My two pence.....
1: Videos load for me quickly on YouTube (not so on TW's site, not sure why, it's no issue though if I can watch them on YouTube)
2: Picture quality is really good even without HD
3: Extra graphics/polish looks nice and the effort made to show all of Chris's Prestige Mids for example was worthwhile. This sort of attention to detail makes a difference.
4: More court action with the review racquets is the way forward (IMO.) Rather than a static shot of the reviewer talking we get to see them hitting with the racquet and from a good angle where you can see everything.
5: Better setup with reviewer and presenter. No need to say 'how are you' or 'nice shot Jason' etc, just cut to the chase.
6: It would be nice if the reviews could be less partisan but I think overall the somewhat diplomatic use of language is a reasonable compromise considering the potential conflicts of interest.
7: That's all I can think of for now. Very useful online racquet review service and hopefully it will be online for years to come as a reference archive with the rest of the TW reviews (best tennis gear archive on the web IMO, could be formalised as such infact so you can search for old reviews more easily on the site? Almost like a wiki. I normally end up using google to search the site instead.)
Good work/congrats.
