[AlexIverson333]

i fell like im at the match and i cant bielieve federers in front of me

[RyoSakuLoveforever]

hey'

[Ryslarks]

Best shirt ever made

[RSMS8]

my american twist is better

[Crosby4hyg]

@RSMS8 wrong

[MattScottUK]

What a rubbish clip!

[rmrooster01]

Some of the big pros have totally custom racquets made for them with the stock paint job.... Like Taylor Dent.... His racquet is a one off special custom made for his liking by Wilson, with the stock N Six paint scheme. Lots of people dont know this.... And I remember Jana Novatna had custom racquets too...

[martiniho12]

@rmrooster01 Yeh I heard fed still uses a pro staff tour

[GueorguiJoukov]

@martiniho12

When he played with an NCode, I suspect that he didn't changed since the feel wasn't quite as solid. But between the K factor and the Pro Staff, believe me that the K Factor feels like a steel bar and the Pro staff like chocolate aside of it.

[krabykevin]

For some reason I get the feeling, from looking at his stance, that he hasn't perfected his Arch yet, but skipped right to the toss O^O...

[MapleDynasty]

as a conclusion, federer uses 4 seconds to complete his serve xD

[krabykevin]

Lol...I like that! >;D

you should definately be one of those people who talk in the background of the games. One day, when I'm watching another one of those addicting tennis matches, I hear that phrase---and I go, Hey! it's that guy! xD

[Jaewon12345]

@MapleDynasty but where's the 4th second?!

[minh533]

is he using ncode?

[polipoli7]

this was around i think 2004-2006. hes using ncode at that time but when 2007 fed used the kfactor

[dual4aces]

i read in an article that nadal uses an older version of babalot and not the cortex, they just spray paint it to promote the cortex, i think the same goes for federers raqcuet it might be still the ncode just with a diff paint job

[polipoli7]

its not about nadal loser, its about federer's racket.

[dual4aces]

shut the fuck up its part of the explanation u noob

[polipoli7]

part? its all about federer

[dual4aces]

part of the explenation without that i couldent make my point

[PinoBomb]

i think its actually still his old pro staff tour. but definately true. alot of pros just change the paint job not the racket

[laperdepaperhond312]

that's not true

he uses kfactor at the time since 2007 till now

[polipoli7]

that's what i said.

btw he now uses k ps 88 with paintjob of k 6.1 90.

[bholloway546]

wrong...he uses a customized k90 which supposedly has a slightly small head than 90sq in

[GueorguiJoukov]

@bholloway546

Having spoke to one of his previous stringer who strung many pro rackets, including that of Federer, Federer carried around a genuine K Factor 90 tour, but do not be mistaken: it is not a stock racket. There is 8 grams of lead tape under the top cap.

[martiniho12]

@GueorguiJoukov Top cap?

[GueorguiJoukov]

@martiniho12

The plastic at the end of the racket head which follows the round shape of the head... he has 8 grams of lead tapen under this part.

[martiniho12]

@GueorguiJoukov The head gaurd, yes he does use 8 grams of lead tape, he also uses string savers

[GueorguiJoukov]

@martiniho12

This racket is 12,5oz unstrung and it's not enough...

362grams with the lead. It's nearly 80 more than mine, but mine is getting a little light for my swing.

[laperdepaperhond312]

yep

here he is using ncode

not at the moment

[MattyGEE26]

dang, i wish my first serve were that good lol

[bamibalboy]

practice my friend, practice

[juanchonsboca]

what is a kick serve ?

[erosennin4203]

lol.

[nekonaru16]

it's any serve hit with any amount topspin so it's pulled into the service box, bounces high or "kicks up" and forward. The most common type is the american twist which curves right to left if you're right handed and kicks towards the high and off to the right of the server

[bryanj2u]

its when u serve the ball with heavy topspin or topspin with a bit of side spin. for a righty it curves left and bounces to the right. a good kick bounces around 6 ft

[johnster06]

holy, that was soo nice

[BrotherTree1]

nice 2nd serve

[Tashi0106]

what amazing seats

[iwant2eatyourfacelol]

kick serve is a typical serve used by proffesionals on their second serve. It has a greater margin of error (which means, its more likely to get in) and when it bounces, it bounces awkwardly so it is harder for opponents to return.

[MintyFrsh]

a topspin serve is when the ball has so much spin that it easily drops in the court and has a high bounce to it. but the american twist serve is almost like a topspin serve but after it bounces it changes opposite direction, away from your opponent.

[AsianGangsster]

really? I thought the ball go higher?

[brianchowaniec]

It is a serve that jumps after it hits the court and changes direction

[Deven180]

what is a kick serve?

[NooDLES411911]

i was wondering the same thing, but i think it might be the ball has a certain spin and is going one way, but when it hits the court, it kicks and changes direction.

[andyelmago94]

the one in with the player instead of serving with his raquet he serves by kicking the ball

[genomesoldier7]

i hate the asshole bastards that think that "You can hit any serve from the same toss,like tossing it like a flat serve always",that's bullshit,either they cant hit spin serves or just are too stupid and don't know how to do them,and if you can actually hit it from the same toss,the players actually,for example on the kick or topspin serve,end up getting under the ball and doing the same thing after all,because you simply cannot brush the back of the ball from the flat serve toss,end of story

[tennisgeek3]

hey dumbass, andy roddick can roger federer can (he puts the toss behind his head on first and second serves) novak djokovic and do you know wat all those guys have in common no one knos how to read it so yea you can you retard

[iwant2eatyourfacelol]

Federer always tosses there

[whatever3222]

Wow chill man... Federer's serve is efficient and effective because of his ability( similar to sampras) to disguise his serve. Whether its topsin/flat/slice/wide/ down the T/ its at the relatively same toss position. The way the camera angle and that its behind federer makes it seem that its behind him. Its really just at 12/1 oclock position and slightly infront

[nathan155555]

ok u fucking idiot then explain to me why did federer just toss the ball behind them

[keneke45]

because you fucking idiot. In a kick serve, you should hit it above your head or behind you. behind you gives you a bigger spin, idiot!

[iwillnoteatyourface]

its a kick serve dumbass

[nathan155555]

people look at how rodger tosses the ball behind him not directly yp he tosses it behind him people need to now that if they want to learn a kick serve i have been posting the same comment for days now of how stupid people think that to do a kick serve you have to toss it directly above no non no you have to toss it behind you and cut up on the ball and by the way im only thirteen and it is sad that some people that have been playing for so long cant do a kick bcuz of the coach, dads a pro

[appppppppple]

lots of pros toss the ball way in front of them for their kick serves, then they jump into their toss and make it go behind them when they are jumping forward

[dudesomg]

nice kick

[dldragondx]

i can barely even notice where it curves downwards from the topspin

[BosnianFarmer]

what is BAGHDATIS doing in he audience?? wtfFFF!?!?

[gunot5656]

How can you tell if Baghdatis there?!

[TibxB0i]

lmfao

[BosnianFarmer]

serbia!! aiu ai!
