I’ve been reading other subreddits and there are plenty of horror stories about Mova, Roborock, Dreame, etc.—vacuums that become unrepairable once the warranty ends, or units that get lost in the company’s warehouse with no liability on their end. Just curious if anyone has experience with Matics after the warranty expires?
It sounds like since Matic is a much smaller company customer service is better.
He hasn’t been streaming for a month. And what’s up with people missing Aussie Drongo’s YouTube uploads but not Demu’s? Demu imo is a solid streamer.
Also any difference in strategy? Getting ready for my 3.5 singles tournament tomorrow.

Training for a 3.5 singles tournament. I didn’t come from a tennis background. Feels like my split step is either slow or non-existent. Footwork can use improvement. I get passed by my friend ALOT and it’s annoying. I don’t recognize hitting patterns well. I don’t think I’m in the right position most of the time. Feels like my ground shots and serve can be deeper. Please help! Thanks.
We have kids and they leave a mess around the dining table. Do robovacuums handle cooked food such as rice, vegetables, eggs and other types of meat well? Or do you generally need to pick up the larger items first?
His groundstroke is pretty unique, I’m not sure anyone on tour hits it this way. Here are my observations:
Feel free to correct my observations or add to it
I get that closed face = top spin. I always see pros taking practice swings with an extremely closed face and always wondered how does the ball go over the net? Would the club face have to be a neutral 90 degrees otherwise it would pop down?
If you were to record at 1000 fps, at impact for a heavy stop spin drive, would the face be at neutral 90 degrees or would it be closed relative to the net? And if it’s closed how closed can the paddle face be?

This ‘808 Youngster is putting on a show! His ball control is elite and ridiculously fun to watch. The way he consistently catches the outside of the ball and shapes it from extreme angles to down the line is insane. Excited to see what Championship Sunday against Chris Hayworth brings!
I’ll start: Currently playing Elongated Honolulu J6CR with 3 grams at 3 and 9 + another 3 grams on top. Static weight around 8.8 to 9 oz.

I get why Funemizu uses that pancake-style ready position, with the paddle face pointing straight down—it keeps him primed for speedups and really favors his forehand…similar to Riley Newman.
Shimabukuro often extends his index finger straight up the handle instead of wrapping it around like most players. What are the benefits of that?
For context I just received my RPM friction pro v2 and it feels gritty AF. I have so many power paddles I’m not too worried about how this will hit. I have a singles tournament in 1 month, if I used the paddle now new paddle grit will be gone but the paddle will be more broken in.
Should I save the grit for tournament day or break in the paddle more?
