<p>I think I've just hit upon a whole can of worms today...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Basically, I've realized I prefer the performance of a grip size smaller than is normal for me. Ie, I usually play with g3 or g4 (varies from brand to brand of course), but for whippy, spinny, wristy b-line play - I think I do indeed prefer my old PD+ and PD grip size of 2 (or 1/4)...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sure, a bigger grip makes for a more slid kind of serve/volley/groundie/serve return,etc,but for spinny Nadal like shots…</p>

<p>good idea to get going on a string discussion, if you play something new or you love or hate a string then let us know here.</p>

<p>RHs,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yes, looking forward to return to London (put forward to tomorrow) and getting playing again. Here in Devon I only have access to outside court which has been iced over.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Really looking forward to testing out a new, 'special' YTPP and the TF Vo2 320 and seeing if 1 or other can oust the APD. I also want to 'revisit' my old PD+, a frame that I was surprised to find I really liked when I hit with it fairly recently. </p>

<p>Finally, nice to see the FS/T section on this site operating. Providing it's not too much hassle to upload relevant info, I'll probably stick a few frames up here in a week or 2... I recently did a lot of business on ebay and it's been nothing but an endless chore with ppl pissing me around - I look forward to shifting frames in an altogether easier manner.</p>

<p>Peace and gloves tennis bums!</p>

Mine would actually be like Andy Roddicks' (and, no, I don't mean I seriously play anything like him, I just mean in terms of a general style.)<br />
<br />
I suppose because he just had a big impression on me when I got into tennis as a late starter and he was starting to make waves in tennis. In contrast to someone like our own Tim Henman, I did find him quite charismatic and exciting to watch. I certainly studied him a lot... the abbreviated serve (of course), the fh (in depth), that style (er, hit from…

In contrast to someone like our own Tim Henman, I did find him quite charismatic and exciting to watch. I certainly studied him a lot... the abbreviated serve (of course), the fh (in depth), that style (er, hit from the b-line like a headless chicken and just waft over that 2hbh as rarely as is permissable - ha, ha.) I even played the same frame as him then (PD+)...<br />
<br />
So, slightly embarrassing perhaps, I don't know, but that's the pro player who I maybe most resemble in terms of my game.<br />
<br />
How about others?<br />
