I like the style of this player. What do you think about his technique? I mean the guy in blue shirt.

I think administrators misunderstood me, they deleted the threads that I didn´t want to delete. But it´s ok, now I edit this just to say now that´s the only video I will recommend because it´s the shorter video and has a good angle to watch the match.

He could probably handle everything TTW forum members could bring. The only exception would be the serve of Aurellian and ttwarrior.

huh? 3.0 tennis is painful to watch. But the clay courts built under a highway overpass are pretty cool!

What do you want to hear here?

Is your goal to hear negative comments about the playing style of said player?
Do you want to hear that he is *bad*?

Not quite following the intent of this thread.

Bottom line is, he is out there and he is playing.
From the looks of it he is enjoying it.

That is all that matters.
Unless you draw your income from Tennis, nothing else matters but enjoying the sport.

I just want that the video has a lot of views, because in general these videos has not many views, so it would be funny. That´s my goal. I prefer to read positives comments. I like the video and the style of that player.

Positive comment? Ok, your video is positively horrid.

not sure why many views would make the video funny, so i don't understand your goal.

my positive comment is that i see a good desire to set up tennis courts, even if it's under the freeway. i just feel the pain of not being able to lob with that low vertical clearance, even as i watched the video for a few seconds.

In my experience, there are times when the administrators do understand the poster and still delete some of his threads, even though such measures may be well understood to conflict with the poster's desires.

I think the fact that the video reachs many views would be nice and funny, because normally these videos of amateurs has not many views, just for that it would be great if that happens, would be cool if the video become famous and maybe appears as recomendation alongside the videos of Federer, Nadal, etc.

Much prefer his opponent's strokes if I had to strictly choose between the 2 of them.

@others: Weren't we all there before at some point near the beginning of our tennis journeys? Some improve and enjoy the improvements, some stay stagnant but enjoy playing tennis regardless. Not everyone who picks up a racquet has to be a 5.0 player to find enjoyment.

You seem heavily invested in this particular person wouldn't happen to be you would it?

That said 2.5? Or if better I need to go where you are and play some tourneys.

Props tho for the balls to be filmed and put your game on youtube.

If you are looking for a serious critique, there really much to talk about. It's not just the technique -- there is just very little athleticism going on at this stage of your development. But if you guys are having fun with it, who cares? Keep playing, have fun and no doubt you will continue to improve.
