It's amazing that Hermont camouflaged his flat, slice and kick pretty well. Without knowing beforehand, you couldn't really tell from his ball toss what kind of serve would come next. Maybe the kick toss was a tad more to his left, but they all had some sort of arch in that direction.
That’s what impresses me about Kygrios’s serve. His toss is so damn consistent and he can hit all three from neutral.
@@dps0610 Sampras too, back in the day
@@tennisteuton for sure.
One huge factor is the player knows beforehand it’s going to be a kick serve out wide. It’s way harder to return it during an actual game when you don’t know what kind of serve is coming.
Picking up the phone while recording your post game interview was hilarious. 🤣
Chantal: “ Can we do a practice🥺?”
Winston: “*No*”
Let’s hope that no one tells these guys that hermont being a small guy doesn’t even have a big serve for D1. It will make them feel better
It was fun to watch! A mix of both'd be great
Well done Winnie, your channel is blowing up now 👏👏
Excellent content one more time, Winston! I liked it. I think it’s a nice idea varying between matches and challenges like this. But the best content of all times would be a match between coach Chase vs Jarred/Karul. Btw, I’m missing videos with coach chase playing
Surprised how much I liked this video.
Remember recently ( Sept 2023?) , a survey showed 45% of over 50s thought they could win a game off a pro?
The iverv50s should watch this video 😀
This was so fun to watch
Nice serving and great efforts trying to return !
Hermont’s flat serve is a cannon. It’s gotta be at least 115. 💥
Yeah it looks about 120 which is impressive for his height my fastest was 117 in college but I’m taller
A Wilson ntour 95! Good to see such a classic from the henin era
Riley & Gabe are the coolest
Love the videos!
this is so fun! Great video! Have you ever pranked Hermont to do a vid like this against a 'new' player who is acutally an ATP player? That would be hilarious!
Just have Karue shave his mustache and put on glasses.
Two of the guys that I used to play with had 120 MPH serves. Both were 6' 5". One owned a construction company and worked construction with his employees. He also had a monster of a kick serve where you have to get the racquet above your shoulders to return it unless you tried to cut it off. One other guy I play regularly had a 110 MPH serve but he's in his 70s now. He's a former D3 player. My feelings on returning these serves is that you have to have some idea as to where it's going unless it's coming right at you. So you guess. If you guess wrong, then you lose the point. But you'll lose it anyways if you don't guess. The other guy was a competitive junior that went to college though I think that he wound up playing basketball. There's a video like this except with Roddick serving. With Roddick serving, it's more important
Saw the GQ challenge vid with Rick Macci, nice to see it recreated. What I got from that video is (tennis armchair video watchers are annoying) and it’s really hard to tell how fast a serve is with the naked eye. Hermont’s serves were def pretty big though.
I thought Rick did give good tips to the guy so he could have the highest success.
Not sure. I'd estimated the flat first serves at somewhere around 95 mph. They didnt hit the back fence as high up as I would have expected 100 mph serves to do so.
Chantal's racket is probably a n-code six one team, I used it as a kid and still use it as a backup racket. If there's pace on the ball I love it, feels like you can place it anywhere you want.
It's a Wilson ntour!
those flat serves were crazy!!!
Great stuff!
I live in OC and have been playing for about 4 months, is there a way to connect with some of the players in town on my level?
Lets go Gabe!!! My guy getting thrown to the lions on the first day
«That's what she said» 🤣
Thanks for this! Just saw a similar vid on some buzzfeed type channel and the guy serving was barely going over 80mph, and they called it 120.. Wanted to see actual 100's
If u clocked his flat serve it would prob be about 110-115 maybe even more
Chantal with the N Code Racket that's a classic
would definitely be fun to let hermont serve any serve at the location of his choosing.
Let’s go Gabe! I’m also from Calvin University!
It is funny watching Helmont playing… like a dwarf
Haha, this was fun to watch.
Hey @Winston Du What strings do you use?
I want to try this!
Just goes to show how important the "split-step"
is when returning; specifically in this instance; serves.
Them being relatively beginners;
being "flat-footed" gives them a slim chance, to none.
I always split step a fraction too late, I think the point the ball is about to be hit is when right? Or is it when the ball leaves the hand.
At contact is when you should be just coming down from your split, which allows you to pounce in the direction that's needed.
@@RonnieJamesOsbourne Ok I'll work on timing it, thanks. I always find when I do it I'm a little late. I see some pros who hop before rather than just one split step. Would that be advisable if you can't time it perfectly
@@LoosSerine It's preference.
Djokovic does like a horse stance (martial Arts) (wide stance) and then there's players like Nishikori/Murray, that do a side stance into a split, which gives them forward momentum. I believe Wawrinka does a combo of small horse stance into a few bounces into a split step...just practice several and find your prefrence.
I believe 2 minute tennis just did a video on split step timing that may help you as well.
Yessir majeed the goat
Most of the serves were out though? lol
A lot of those serves looked out.
what court does he play at? is this in San Francisco?
This beginners are good damn) most of the times when I try to play friendly match with Lower Intermediate players, they can't return my serves.. Frustrating
Go Calvin Knights🎉
It's not so much the speed of the serve, but nobody did a proper split step to be ready for the incoming ball, and always late.
Yesssss Michelle as the co-host!! 👌
4:40 go frame by frame: the ball was out.
4:45 as well
quite a few of his serves were out
It wasn't that serious challenge. It would take an hour if they waited for all the serves to precisely landed.
What kind of speed gun is that?
Pretty sure the guy went 0-3 when hitting kick serves to the lady in the ad court. Hard to return them when they're out. ;)
the kick serve is the slowest; therefore, it gives you more time to react.
Is Chantal using a Wilson N Code? If so where did she get one? Been trying to find one. lol.
Also great competition everyone.
@@WinstonDu ah makes sense makes sense. lol
Probably from a long time ago, i do have an ncode as well, but i dont use it anymore. You might be able to find it on ebay.
You counted the faults. 😬
100 mph easy
Flat's the weapon, just ask Sampras.
Flat serves,but then there’s Michelle! 😎😎😎
The flat serve is only about 100mph at best!
put him against tennis hq guy
Return position was pretty challenging for them. The slice should have seen them closer, and maybe leaning to their right. And the kick serve, again, closer, but leaning to their left.
Also, the flat first serves were not 100% in. I think you should have allowed the returners another go for the serves that were out.
There's a 5.0 bodybuilder chick built like a linebacker just started tennis channel you should challenge. Be a hit video. I mentioned you on her channel. She was interested. In soCal area and asian
OliveTV?
@@theonlyJinXFirE yup. just found her last night. shes got good footwork, serve.and.strokes. and powerful forehand. I think she beats Winston du.
OliveTV practice frequently in Berkeley & I heard she is going to USTA Nationals 5.0 soon. I understand Hermont used to play much at Hercules. So, both of them are nearby each other in Norcal. It would be nice to have a match-up for the good name of recreational tennis in the bay & for youtube. Help boost subscriber & viewership for both parties too. Win win fun situation
th-cam.com/users/OliveTV-Tennis This girl? Just checked Olive TV out, wow she hits like a truck. I think she'd beat Winston
Honest question, do these tournaments drug test? She is most likely on TRT or some other performance enhancer (you can tell by her voice, no way you can tell me that’s her normal voice)
Po, nem ta gelado essas cervejas, sacanagem, kkkk
if (forgot his name) D1 is taller, the serve will be faster :D
Was Gabe part of Carleton Knights swimming team
@@WinstonDu oh ok nevermind. Thanks
No chance of returning the ball. The timing to hit the ball is way off (bad to worse). The slice requires less timing and a bit of experience, so I wasn’t surprise there. This reminds me of picking up a tennis racket for the first time.
That Olipop is disgusting I wouldn't even water the plants with it.
Is it even possible to serve a SLICE down the Deuce T?
The serve down the T at 04:15 looks like a flat serve.
technically yes. its just requires you to still cut the ball on the side but you rotate your trunk and shoulder less then if u would to serve out wide on the deuce side. essentially u would have to serve the ball out and let the spin bring the ball into the t. just lower margin for error. otherwise the balls kinda in no mans land near the t but sitting into the opponents (righthanded forehand)
@@Tommie22x I will have to check the video again. A deuce wide slice will curve away from the returner's forehand.A deuce T slice should curve INTO the returner's body. But it seemed like the deuce T slice just bounced straight ahead. It looked just like a flat serve down the T.
If they just did a hop step all of them would have had a chance.
Easy
I like the concept of the video but I feel like to be fair, the D1 player has to hit the same serve during each round because during some of the "Flat serve" round he hit a slice out wide and vice versa during the slice rd. If returning deuce court then flat serve she always be T or body and slice should be body or out wide to be more fair to the beginners.
Quite a handful of those serves are out - not a balanced approach to measure returns
Some of these serves are blatantly out btw.
Wots the girl with the black hats IG
When I saw this I was like 100mph pff I return that on the service line aggressively too but beginners are different
Hi flat isn't that quick, but his kick is pretty good.
Seems like Winston is making his moves on Michelle lol
His kickers don't really have the hop.
We need Lotti in every video
that dont count, all the recievers are a 1.0 NTRP lol
TBH the serves that were out should have not been counted the same as they won't in a real game.... That's kinda cheating
His arm must be tired after all those serves.
No his arms gets bigger 😅
He’s highly skilled and utilizes the proper kinetic chain. Power comes from the ground to the torso and then the arms do virtually little
@@ifeanyiikpegbu6465 its years of training not power coming from the deep of earth to the neurosystem😅😅
@@ifeanyiikpegbu6465 actually most of the power comes from the arm and the shoulder. Legs and torso just add a few percent
27 serves is not that many serves...
Haha. 14 year olds hit 100+. With the rackets and strings today anyone can hit with speed. That’s why tennis is lost. It’s handicapped.
Whos the new stripper 🤣🤣???
Just joking
Do you folks know that a 100 mph serve on hardcourt is going about 50-55 mph when it gets to the returner?
SABR attack!
Bro I think you already know you need to drop Chantal's @
@@WinstonDu lmao the internet is wild
@@WinstonDu also yes more content like this, have you guys ever played king of the court?
Great video. Now to the important bit. What is Chantal’s Instagram?
