Went to school early in the morning. Sat outside ECE office to prepare some crap to crap. Saw tuck leng. Lol. He met sup at 9am. Heh. And then I went in.<\/p>\n
I did not expect myself to stay for that long.<\/p>\n
I went in at 9.45am. I got out at 11.15am.<\/p>\n
(I shall be copycat…) OMT!!! 1.5 hrs in there..<\/p>\n
He was suggesting the use of state variables… ahhh… I returned them back to prof lee, now I had to dig them all out. And ben and I saw prof lee at the lab a while later. Lol.<\/p>\n
Went for tennis at 1.30pm. Trying out my new strings for the 2nd time. The first time was yesterday, right after going to queensway for stringing with ben.<\/p>\n
Some sidenote. We went for hotdog at ikea, and got free hamburgers and I got myself a hot fudge sundae at Mac. Heh… yummy. I walked around trying to find something that I am trying to find… Hmm.. It's not anywhere in queensway.<\/p>\n
Ok, back to stringing. This combination of stringing for tennis is hell.<\/p>\n
First. The colour. My Pro Hurricane Tour is yellow (it will be very suitable for the new Wilson K Pro series rackets), and Conquest is white. And so, it's yellow and white. Nice colours. <\/p>\n
Next. The strings. Pro hurricane is really a super hard and stiff string. Conquest is a quite normal soft string, but it still seems that it is more on the stiff side. This combination of strings will actually make playing much easier, compared to a full pro hurricane stringing.<\/p>\n
But then, it's better not to try this combination if your elbow hurts after playing for a while, or you already have elbow problems like tennis elbow etc. This string combination is quite bad for the elbow, I feel. I can feel the strain on my elbow after a while. <\/p>\n
And also, due to the stiffness, pro hurricane tour is a very low-powered string, which means that you have to provide the power from your own swing. I find it more hard to control the ball than all my previous strings. Maybe I am noob to such strings, that's why.<\/p>\n
So in conclusion, unless you have super elbow, or you are trying to get tennis elbow to downgrade or what, don't try this combination. Or rather, avoid pro hurricane tour for your own good. But if you like lots of spin, that string is for you. You can get really heavy topspin, if you hit correctly.<\/p>\n
Ok, I better go try to relax my arm…<\/p>\n
Today's players? Ben, chris, xinli, and me lor. Wm got dunno-what room renovation works. Lionel #2 sick. Charlene not free. The rest never ask.<\/p>\n
Ok, tomorrow shall be a busy day in NUH…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
