Credit cards have fraud protection. You aren't liable for fraudulent charges.

paypal + ee-bay bites.
good luck getting your money back when their is a problem with ee-bay.
they also charge quite a bit when you add up all the fees.

suresh, when can we see a video of your game?

Funny how folk go from claiming to be incredibly brilliant when discussing technique, to incredibly incompetant when faced with the most minor of tasks.

I'm a neurosurgeon, but I can't do my laundry because the lint trap in my dryer is full.

Duct tape is hard to use. And bungee cord is even harder. Dont even try setting phone on a tennis bag propped up. That requires years of training.

I wish moderation was this gung-ho when people posted a false playing record, and said it was mine.

Did you report any posts? If so, did we (well, I shouldn't speak for TW Staff -- did I) take care of them :confused:

I do what I can with the time I have. I'm not perfect :(

(Also: I do get it if you don't want to feel like or take the route of 'a rat,' but if I don't have any indication things are going wrong, I can't do diddly. I see only a small, small fraction of the stuff going on the TW boards -- I'm a volunteer and I've got way less time nowadays than I did when I signed on.)

You're just being difficult/daft for the sake of it.

I suggest you place the bag outside doubles alley by the baseline. Voila.

And now, as I am not posting any video myself ATM, I will, as the thread insinuates, shut up.

It was a great post. Summed up a lot of people here.

It's very curious that so many people are afraid of posting their tennis strokes on a tennis forum. I did not realize that the fear of showing that you are an amateur on a forum dedicated to amateur tennis was this strong. If you haven't the humility to be critiqued yourself, then no one has any reason to assume that your advice is sound. Personally, I think it's fun videoing my tennis and having different opinions on it.

When I was on the tour I was very self conscious when I played in front of crowds because so many girls were screaming for my giblets it made it very difficult to maintain focus.

True, but I also play with the better players on this forum in person and get their direct comments. I am always rushing to play from some other work, sometimes even without eating. It is a burden to carry cameras and stands, especially for someone who doesn't even take pics on vacation. Getting comments from players on this forum who are much better than most over here is something I can live with easily. I also have a network of a few 4.5 players outside of this forum who have worked with me on the serve.

Dude, I reckon you could get a run on SNL. Seriously.

You are wasting your talent here. Unless you are AKA Chris Tucker.

I wasn't even referring to you; I posted that while still on like page 8 with people saying they "can't" for x y or z reason. You can only get better by having another set of eyes look at your technique is all I meant.

U have no idea.

I could bring SNL back to the immortal Belooshy days.

I can throw a football clear over that mountain, too. Coach said I could play first string in the big game.

Thanks! They are called shell courts, clay courts with an overlay of crushed seashells instead of brick dust or basalt. Beach colored :)

Very interesting! How do they play? I noticed you guys get a bit of sliding action going on? Is the bounce cleaner like a hard court, or does it get some funky ones like clay?
