Gary, she was 30(+) but younger than 35. That tournament classified age group in 10-year ranges.

[hi10spro]

@namui can you get her to be my partner in the 70's mixed?

[namui]

@hi10spro Umm..Sorry G, I have no contact of hers. I know her because we were in the same team 7-8 years ago! She was a university player then. I think she currently works at Navy. That's all I know.

[hi10spro]

@namui you're right about the Navy. that's what they said. she's solid.

[ribcat]

dude, how do u know she's 35?

[hi10spro]

heheh I can tell by the way she looks... nah, it's an age group open 35 and over :D

[Strikerking8]

I hit my forehand like Del Potro easy to get power and spin, easy to disguise and very hard to read.

[hi10spro]

yeah but he's HUGE

[TennisFlip95]

i hit my forehand like federer, just brush up the back of the ball and follow through across your body so that the racket almost hits your shoulder, but unless i am hitting a really flat shot and going for a winner, i try and slow down the swing a little so that i don't end up hitting myself

[hi10spro]

i hit like Gary Sakuma...

[FinalFan0]

I tend to over-hit a lot, so I have compensated by following through and catching the racquet with my hand; instead of finishing over my shoulder.  But, now that I think about it, I'm not sure if it really matters...

[hi10spro]

that's a good question. I do both. I think if you go over your shoulder without the hand, you have more pop on the ball

[wind1357]

I don't like it when the racquet goes above the shoulder. Feels like I will wack my neck with my wrist.

[hi10spro]

don't do that?

[wind1357]

i try to do that. But then I went back to my always faithful reverse. Can't go wrong with topspin.

[IllnezzBD]

yeah even I prefer the reverse follow through....best of luck.
