Tennis Stomper
Submitted by Redskinfan on Tue, 10/16/2007 - 11:33am.Imagine walking out on the tennis court with sheer confidence knowing your opponent better be on the top of their game, to even stand a chance... The type of confidence that comes with knowing your 'secret' weapon won't fade as fatigue sets in during even the toughest match.
Imagine the ability to walk off the court leaving nothing more than a few beads of sweat, and waking up the next day ready to go again, full speed ahead - without the slightest ache or pain.

Chop, Half Volley, And Court Position
In Tennis, a chop stroke is a shot where the angle towards the player and behind the racquet, made by the line of flight of the ball, and the racquet travelling down across it, is greater than 45 degrees and may be 90 degrees. The racquet face passes slightly outside the ball and down the side, chopping it, as a man chops wood. The spin and curve is from right to left. It is made with a stiff wrist.
Choosing a Grip
Choosing the right grip size for your racquet depends mostly on hand size but also on strength, style, and other factors. It is important that you choose the right size grip or you may end up with an uncomfortable racquet which can not only hurt your game, but can cause injury.
