Haha I'm online at school right now too.

teh-pwns-the: Lol they dont have clay courts in america. Well some clubs do, but only like really rich ones. Clay courts are fun to play on lol, i like sliding like six to ten feet, but i hardly am any good on them. Clay really kills my serve beacuse I hit flat w/ a lot of power. I have a decent topspin serve, but it doesnt kick enough to try to use it for anything other than my 2nd serve.

ha yeah same with my topspin serve... im happy membership at the club with courts comes with lessons, so i can go lay whenever... clay makes spin count for so much more, haha i can actually get dropshots to bounce back into the net after going over haha. in america its mostly hard courts right? never could get used to those, diving for a ball ends up murdering your elbows/knees haha clay they jsut get scratched a little.... have you ever played on grass? i want to sooo bad haha

Haha yeah america is hardcourt. And unfourtunately I've gotten pretty badly scraped while going after the ball (I'm pretty determined to get to every ball lol). One time, during tiebreaker of the 3rd set, I scraped my knee and it was bleeding down my leg, but since there was like 6 points left I decided to play on it and won XD

Grass sounds so fun to play on, but those are so high maintenance that i dont think i'll ever pass by one. Not even the millionaire club (seattle tennis club) has grass.

Anyone else have some crazy tennis (or just general) stories. I've got tons lol

man there was this one point and i was like 5 feet behind the baseline cause i had just chased down a lob, and the guy smashes it and i see taht its going out so i try to get out of the way by jumping and trying to make myself horizontal, except he pegs the tip of my foot and gets the point haha... still beat the guy pretty bad, he only got 2 games the whole match haha

XD I've hit ppl between the legs w/ my serve before. I feel bad especially since i can serve 104mph. Regardless every match i've done that my opponent plays worse for some reason lol.

Not sure yet I got knocked into losers by 1st then 3rd or 4th kicked me out out I think like 13th out of ? I was told I'll get it into the turny thing when I know for sure.

Reaction: After my friends told said they were thinking "what is he doing using his upB that close" but then after I did it and hit the guy, 10 secs after they were like "that was a wing dash!". Also I can't wing dash when I practice yet I can in game when I don't try to hard or think.

Then lost the pepper crew match (our first guy didn't take a stock) its the vid Im going to have up soon

Awesome, I can't wait to see the video. Its funny how you nor I can't do wingdashing well in practice, but can do it in a match relatively easier. I wonder if this is the same for others...

And based on the reaction, I see that wingdashing isn't well known except among us. I thought it would be a bit more popular than that but hey, it gives us an advantage I guess. :laugh:

Ok so they post the final results up later? That makes sense, so I will know how I placed in my tourney yesterday, not so well so I probably not post in the tourney thread. :urg:

No they knew about wingdashing but never have seen it in real combat aside from your vids I have shown them. And it is very quick and can be hard to catch some times.

lol, well Idk how old you are, but if you get really good, tell them the reward. Say that you have an opportunity to make $200 in 4 hours so that is $50/hr about. Say that it is good way to connect with others while making money. Tell them the rewards and I think it will help. But they might say that school is more important which I agree.
So maybe you can work something out with them like, you will do your homework as soon as you get home from school so that you have the rest of the day off to get better at smash and possibly make some money.

Also, smash tourney are performances. So if there is something you do that requires ease under pressure, this will help with that.

But I say the thing that will impress them the most, is that you are the one to say that school is more important and that it comes first, then smash with the rewards.
Hope this helps!
