Definitely enjoyed watching and prefer the context of all points over just highlights. Your opponent's footwork was insane. At times it looked like he was sped up in the footage!
Definitely show all the points. As stated below, It adds to the context of the tactics as well as adding to the drama. Helps us lower UTR players learn how to plan out points. Thanks!
Minor suggestions coming from a viewer: (1) rotate your video so I don't want to tilt my head when watching and (2) have set score on your scoreboard be first, and game score be at the end (it's just what my brain is used to)
I'm new to your channel (and have just subbed). Alexey hits bombs I couldn't begin to handle as well as you. That established, I hope you'll indulge my observation that your TFight 305's high swingweight is holding you back against such a heavy hitter. Your 1st solution, of course, is to abbreviate your takeback to effectively bunt back his ridiculous pace. Then you might consider a lower recoil-weighted frame against heavy ballers like Alexey. (Please accept my apologies if such input isn't welcome; again, I'm new to your channel.)
Agree, we all make mistakes sometimes - I’m sure he realized with the edit but left it in of course . Recording my own matches made me realize I make bad calls too sometimes 😢
High level hitting 🙌! I'm personally more a fan of full match footage like this but I understand it takes more time to edit. Alexey was putting in work with his forehand this match. I noticed that when your forehand was rushed this match it often went into the net -- wonder if there's a technique or some adjustment you could make to alleviate that (not being sarcastic lol it's tough).
I noticed that too. I found his chest was opening up too soon and so it was mostly the arm working by itself without the benefit of the unit turn (there is a definite power leak). On his better forehands his left shoulder stayed closed across his body longer. To be perfectly honest I have this problem too and it helps me when I see it in other people so I can use it to improve my own game.
I don’t have utr premium and I have been signing up for tournaments through USTA. Just gotta find tournaments that are around your level/ rating and they should provide you with some good matches. Hope that helps
Honestly only thing I think holding you back from 11+ is getting your forehand stronger. It would probably require you to technically change some things which could cause you to dip short term. If you are serious about it hire a good coach for a few sessions and start hitting a lot of swing volleys with a partner or ball machine that will fix most forehands naturally. I think you need to shorten it up but I think you know that based to how often you go to the slice. Amazing game nonetheless.
Nope. That was out and correct call. Watch the same point at .25x speed, you will see the ball bouncing out. Sometimes that happens in how video players chose to render what frames.
High level tennis. But, I always try and see how the person who post could play better. You get too high when you come in on balls either just to hit a ball or too come to net. That is why you hit too many balls into the net-you are above the ball.
I personally prefer all the points! thanks for sharing the full video, enjoyed the high quality match!
Appreciate the love! I’m always looking for ways to improve.

I thought that too. Kept checking if my 1.25X speed was on lmao

Appreciate the feedback. Means a lot!!
Greatly prefer seeing every point to really see how the match unfolds, feel I can learn more that way
Got it! Thank you!

Super helpful. Thank you! Will work on both of these points for future videos.
@@Eternal_Tennis Thanks for taking the input. I'll definitely be watching either way!
Just use a stand! When you mount it on the fence, this can happen sometimes. @Eternal_Tennis
Alexey played on my college team, he was as high as 13 something utr for a long time before he started coaching. Insane player.
That's awesome that you know him. And yes, I agree...Insane player! I can 100% believe that he was a 13 at one point.

Shot at 7:30 looked way in..

Love the feedback. Will definitely be sure to work on that part of my game haha! Thanks again for the comment.

Do you pay for utr premium. Where do you find good tournaments. Assume it has to be west coast vs east?🎉
I don’t have utr premium and I have been signing up for tournaments through USTA. Just gotta find tournaments that are around your level/ rating and they should provide you with some good matches. Hope that helps
4:45 wasn’t a good call from the footage I see. I think that set the tone.
Was close. Tough to tell from that angle
If you don't mind me asking, what shoes do you wear and do you have any special padding or insoles in them?
He's wearing the NikeCourt Air Zoom Vapor 11 Attack
Yes these are the NikeCourt Air Zoom Vapor 11 Mac Attack. Also, no, I do not use any special padding or insoles with the shoes.
Looks like you played Winner Only from the future
Great playing, I prefer seeing all the points!
Haha! Love that comparison. Thanks for the comment and feedback.
Alexey's compact strokes 🔥

7:30 - slow ball that you clearly could see drops 2 inches before the baseline, and you call it out... man...
Ball did look like it was in. Camera angle makes it a little deceptive though.
Hm it is clearly past the baseline, difficult to tell if the back is touching though
Nope. That was out and correct call. Watch the same point at .25x speed, you will see the ball bouncing out. Sometimes that happens in how video players chose to render what frames.
Looks even more in at slower speed. @@iAshwin
hate watching this on vacation i just wanna play
maybe i'm in the wrong, but it seems as if every point was counted to the opposite/wrong person or to be clearer i think you mixed up the names
green shirts backhand is way better than forehand
The one in the green t-shirt has some weird racket swing ....which is unwanted .... And unorthodox
True
All points over highlights. Nice rallies.
All points 👍
Thanks for the input! Will keep that in mind for future videos!

Appreciate all of the tips! Always trying to get better!
Bro fix the tilt on the camera lol - takes 2 seconds before you start recording or 2 seconds cutting up the vid haha - great playing though
Man this is only UTR 11... Pros are just not human UTR 15 lol. You guys make it look easy.
I know, right! The pros are on a different level. Appreciate the comment!
7:30 way in
you have achieved 50% level playing field in your videos. The tennis is great, but I cannot stop laughing at the other thing.
