2007-06-08julian10101010YesPrompt reply , Excellent
2005-03-29Peter10101010Nothanks so much for the info
2003-05-23Kyle Mara10101010Yesthanks, rob! you did indeed answer my question. (we knew that returning "on the fly" before it hits the back wall was good, but i guess i wasn't too clear about that.) i will now confidantly call my own long serves as needed, even if my partner doesn't see them hit the back wall before the floor. thanks again.
2003-03-27Lisa McKenna10101010YesThx for the input. Researched a bit further yesterday and found what I think to be the best deal for me to break back into the sport. The Head Ti 175, which I can get for $69.00. Its (i165/185) replacements may be better, but will also cost. Thx again for your help Rob. I will let my wife use the old Ektelon Toron until she acquires some skill, ha!

Expertise

Racquetball. Know all the rules, etiquette, etc. Am familiar with equipment and am active on the applicable newsgroups when I have time. I can be of service to players up to the "advanced" level. Have been playing since the mid 1980s. NOTE: I cannot answer questions on "what kind of racquet should I get?" This is like asking "what kind of dog or car should I get?" There are so many factors I do not know where to begin - how long have you been playing, do you prefer a top heavy or frame heavy racquet, how often do you plan on playing, etc. I recommend you find a pro shop that allows you to "demo" (borrow) racquets. You can usually borrow racquets for one to three days. A borrowing fee may be involved - and if you end up buying the racquet from that shop, it will usually credit you the loaner fees you have already paid against the purchase price of the racquet.

Experience

Won the Ohio State University Intramurals tournament ("A" Division) six out of six times entered.
