From what I see kana looks pretty solid. Pretty good fundamentals. Jason has a western grip for his forehand. He seems a bit rush maybe needs to relax but nothing that can't be improved upon. His volleys needs improvement. especially his backhand volley. Nice vid
im sorry but how is jason a 4.0?! hes seriously not that good, i mean, im probably no better but theres a 14 year old kid at my club whos a 7 something, and by the looks of this, he would whipe the floor with jason...
@ribcat nice contribution to the video comments. Start posting videos of yourself playing before making elementary comments. In fact, I could care less about watching a 13yr old play tennis so, forget about posting your videos. You're dismissed.
I'm using the Volkl V1 Classic (came in at 10.2 oz) customized it to 11 oz with lead tape at 12 & 6 o'clock which upped the swing weight to I think about 326. Usually strung at mid or 2 below depending on the string. It's the most arm/shoulder friendly racquet I've played with. I love it! Thanks for the support! I know we have a lot to work on!
I bet at least some of the people criticizing the quality of play, saying they are better, etc., have never viewed their own games on video and realize how many errors they make and how slow the ball can look on film when compared to real life.
someone should teach jason how to coil on his forehand so he could really unload on it, but it amazes me at how much power kana has for her tiny stature
yes looks like she's got good power. Also looks fit too and got great form. But then again, she's got a semi-powerful racquet in stock form (looks like volkl V1 classic) to begin with and you can always tweak the power level with string tension and lead, which i'm sure she's aware of, if not doing it.
@djlpenguin well he has good directional hitting with depth. however he needs to establish a better net game. and again i have not seen him serve so i cant really put a finger on where he would fall in rank
What a beautiful view...Are you guys hiring? I could handle that every day. Chris is a great instructor.

@Mysteryman107,

Jason's a weak 4.0. no weapon. Kana's good and hot.
Chris may be a good 4.0 and maybe a 4.5

I'd love to hear a bit on their racket choices. I know they've done a review on Jason's racket of choice, but what about Kana's?

@tomsaunders123 not so. they help prevent forearm and elbow injuries, and with one on each arm can prevent tan lines

hes about a 4.5 i would rank him. all depends on his serve though....im a 5.0 simply because i serve up over 100 with some penetrating groundstrokes
