Roger Federer top 10 best points

2007-04-09T20:09:00.000-07:00

A selection of the best 10 points of Roger Federer (in raphk121's opinion). Top 10s and "bests of" lists are always fun, because they are so arguable.

Some of the points showed here, were already posted in this blog, and are amazing. I'm not sure I agree with the ordering.

Australian Open 2007

2007-04-09T20:04:00.000-07:00

Selected moments from the australian open. Among them a little bit of Federer vs chile's contender Fernando Gonzalez. I confess I wanted Gonzalez to win. Enjoy!

Amateur tennis serve video. What do you think of it?

Amateur Tennis Serve

2007-04-07T08:16:00.000-07:00

Amateur tennis serve video. I'm not sure the ball is landing where it has to. the technique seems a bit sloppy, I like the fact that he jumps right before hitting it. I've seen the masters do the same thing, its not for everyone.

What do you think?

When sky is the limit in Tennis

2007-04-06T15:02:00.000-07:00

Topspin backhand by Tommy Haas

2007-03-22T07:18:00.000-07:00

Backhand's approach, execution and follow up. Nice.

There's no beating Federer

2007-03-22T07:08:00.000-07:00

I like the smirck in the guy's face, at the end, you can't help but just smile, and accept it, federer is a tennis freak.

Federer & Hewitt slow motion forehands

2007-03-22T06:17:00.000-07:00

Again, federer makes a little jump before actually hitting his forehand. Looks like this allows a more aggressive and powerful stroke.

Roger Federer slow motion forehand and backhand

2007-03-22T05:51:00.000-07:00

I like how aarontiang observes his eyes never leave the ball. The backhand is returning a serve at over 190km/h. Remarkable!

I'd like to note also the way the makes a little jump on the forehand, with it he gains a better approach, I guess otherwise he'd have to change slightly the grip used, and it would be maybe a less powerful hit.

Tennis Grips tutorial

Another amateur serve sample. Far better than mine :(

Tennis Serve basic tutorial

2007-02-24T18:37:00.000-08:00

This is a basic tennis serve tutorial. The stress is on the basic word, since it does not discuss many aspects, still I think it's useful.

Rafel nadal forehand

2007-02-24T18:24:00.000-08:00

This a mercedes play of the week. The video shows Rafael Nadal scoring a point with a parallel forehand, achieved in a sprint.

Federer winner forehand in slow motion

2007-02-24T18:16:00.000-08:00

This is an incredible capture of federer in a winner forehand shot, approach and all. The way he jumps is awesome, his timing is perfect.

Service rear view

2007-02-24T17:55:00.000-08:00

Look at this guy's service, I'm not sure I like it, even though it's much better than mine. It looks like he kinda looses balance. What do you think?

Fernando Gonzalez backhand in slow motion

2007-02-24T17:23:00.000-08:00

I find interesting that he starts with a two handed grip, and finishes with only one, is this normal?

Truly amazing tennis points

2007-02-24T17:09:00.000-08:00

This is a capture of some awesome tennis points. In particular the first one, between Roger Federer and Lleyton Hewitt is incredible. Enjoy!

Grip styles in the Service

2007-02-04T13:49:00.000-08:00

David Kemp discusses different grips that can be used for service in tennis. Again with David podcast I get the feeling the message is not very clear.

Watch a warm up session

2007-02-04T13:33:00.000-08:00

This is the video of an amateur warm up session. It provides reasonably good examples on forehands and backhand strokes, I wished I had that backhand.

It seems to me his forehand stroke is sending the ball too high.

Watching a tennis pro coach

2007-02-04T13:21:00.000-08:00

This is a video of Pablo Cribari, a tennis coach from Argentina. While the video has forehands, volleys, backhands and services examples, is his backhand the stroke I think is better performed in the video, and provides a better example.

Forehand basics with David Kemp

2007-02-03T14:02:00.000-08:00

David Kemp, with his nice british accent instruct us on the different ways to do a forehand stroke. It's not terribly clear, but it's worth the time.

Another slow motion tennis video, this time is the turn of Maria Sharapova. Isn't she just gorgeous?

2007-02-03T13:33:00.000-08:00

Here's another slow motion video, of one of the best current players, Andy Roddick, the man with the dangerous serve.

The following slow motion video is awesome, you can appreciate the grace, and technique achieved by a professional player.

Learning Tennis Online

2007-02-03T08:01:00.000-08:00

I'm taking up tennis, at the age of 27. Since I'm not planning to pay any kind of teacher, I'll try to learn tennis by myself, based on online resources.

Right now my game is just lame, but I'm getting better. I'm trying to get as many people as possible to play against me. I'm playing a couple of times a week right now.

This blog is an online recopilation of tennis resources I've found useful to help me learn tennis, and that could be useful for other self-taught players.
