The two handed tennis racquet???  Personally I think it's just ridiculous!

Hi Tim    You don't hold two handles with one hand.  You have one hand on one handle the other hand on the other handle.  Two hands on the right side, or two hands on the left side AND most of us that use it play single handed left forehand and single handed right forehand.  It is actually quite simple.  Anything new in the beginning just seems complicated because we are not familar to it.  If you are in LA, there are people that would hook up with you..

Definitely, Gregory. I brought a few friends with me to the L.A. Tennis Open and we were curious. If we could borrow a demo racquet or use one with your friends there, that would be very cool. I am in L.A. every Friday and Saturday hitting with my buddies.

If you and Gregory arrange this.  You must take a video!  We'd love to see it on here!

If there were four racquets and doubles, that would be wild! I have a little camera and possibly volunteers. :)

Yes, I would love to see a video of the first time users on the double handed racquet!

Actually, I'd like to see how it's done. With experienced guys on it. Wonder how to serve with that handle angled like that.

Say it ain't so!!! that is a joke

It's as real and serious as a heart attack Peter.  There's actually a group of users on Tennisopolis!  Check out the video here:

Did you see the Battistone brother's jump serve? He's a rightie, tosses with his RIGHT with racquet on his LEFT, then he switches racquet to his RIGHT, jumps and hits. Incredible timing and he gets alot of pop.

I know I felt the same way at first, Peter. But I'm going to give it a try, especially after seeing the video Mike's posted.

I did, It's like a hybrid of a volleyball/tennis serve.  Very unique.
