Stan talking English, French and Rafa was a nice touch

Rafa ? lol

I read this comment first before I watched the vid and was confused. As soon as I heard Stan say “Vamos!” I understood 🤣

@TimTheMusicMan Месяц назад

Exactly what I have been saying, give them real rackets and they are average amateurs. Most players today do not belong in pro tennis. They are there because of the artificial equipment. The equipment provides the power the control and the top spin for the player.

I love Monfil's confidence and positivity in his commentary. There's a reason why he has some of the best comebacks in matches.

i laughed everytime i heard Stan's grunt 😂

Pull the volume on max, let the video play and see what the neighbours think you’re watching 😅

EEEHHH !

@honey_badger9869 Месяц назад

In terms of style, nobody will ever beat Dimitrov with his 1950ies racquet ❤

@realbillymiller1011 Месяц назад

There should be a big tournament every year where wooden racquets are used.

@oooodaxteroooo Месяц назад

the throw back slam yeah :)

@fabianhauser708 Месяц назад

Johnny Mc would come back from retirement for such a tournament and would probably still win it 😊

@MikeCarvin Месяц назад

And smash all those rackets for kicks @@fabianhauser708

@c3vzn Месяц назад

This is a great idea! Too many boring exhibitions with dumb rules trying to appeal to gen Z. This would be something genuinely interesting and prove who’s the most skilful and adaptable.

@ricobhi Месяц назад

So many forearms would be broken by guys trying to get their regular topspin out of those racquets! 😂

@puneethgangarapu Месяц назад

At 0:17, for those who are wondering, The trapezoid-shaped wooden press was used for older wooden tennis racquets because it provided even pressure across the frame, helping to maintain the shape of the racquet and prevent warping or distortion over time. This was particularly important for wooden racquets, which were more susceptible to changes in shape due to moisture and temperature fluctuations.

@kabob21 Месяц назад

Less temp and humidity fluctuations (assuming you don’t store the racket outside in the elements) than the string tension would warp the wood frame over time

@Birdylockso Месяц назад

It also looked cool, back in the day.

@realbillymiller1011 Месяц назад

I played in this era (albeit as a junior)

@carletonclements4931 Месяц назад

What is there about old rackets that make players go "ehhhhhhh"??

@vidhead85 Месяц назад

This was fun to watch. I like seeing these kinds of no pressure, just having fun

Grigor and rublo was still gold tho ❤😮

Educate me then @@inam_-zh5zh

@Rory626 Месяц назад

What has he done? @@inam_-zh5zh

@davidag90 Месяц назад

@@inam_-zh5zh Hahahaha Stan is actually pretty harsh, but he has colleague's respect. Monfils falls into his age range, both speak french and they have +15 years on tour together, to the least. Given there was never bad blood between, it's natural to see them comfortably getting along. But he is certainly not the nicest hahaha.

@TimelyAdventure Месяц назад

These rackets, even non poly strings are a whole different game, just look at the shift in technique that occurred with modern graphite and more western grips with poly strings. Now everyone has a lot more margin for error, way easier to hit heavy spin and swing as hard as possible and keep the ball in. Would be amazing to see a wooden racket tournament each year with serious prize money and wild cards for maybe some older players. Would be fascinating. And I think it helps develop aspects of a person's game like timing, touch, volleys etc that would increase performance with modern rackets after.

@ayomidejoseph_ Месяц назад

Gael and Stan 🥰

My two favourite players of the current tour!

@PV-Anish Месяц назад

okay so now we know that we can hang with pro players in a match as long as they have a racket from the 80's. Or at least that's the hope!

My grandad started buying these type of rackets for me at the flea market after he found out I play tennis

nice

Grandpa is a legend, hopefully you think so too. If not, gather your friends, play a small tournament with the rackets, you'll see then :D

Let me guess, your grandpa didn't play tennis back in his day?

@kabob21 Месяц назад

You watch a lot of adult movies w men grunting in them?

@earthzoneproductions9041 Месяц назад

Imagine having a delivery arrive and you're only watching tennis? I had to turn the sound off once when the electrician came to do some work. As a woman, it sends out the wrong message lol!

@waynelee7421 Месяц назад

It would be much appreciated if Tennis TV could actually get a close up of each racquet that the players are using during these challenges. Some of us have at least a passing knowledge of historical racquets.

Please do more of these!

Tennis is a sport of a lifetime. This video will help keep the interest in a great sport of a lifetime.

@JayRuf3438 Месяц назад

LOL! This is fun. Wasn't it Grior and Rublev with wood rackets last time?

@dustyroot4708 Месяц назад

Correct about the players, but Rublev had an aluminum racquet with a plastic throat bridge iirc. Dimitrov did have a wooden racquet.

@thebenn1972 Месяц назад

I'm amazed that Gael was able to hit the sweet spot on almost all of his shots - that's some amazing technique there ladies and gentlemen.

Stan the Man speaking Rafa Nadal was comedy gold. 😂

@fatgrouch Месяц назад

I love to see Stan playing Maria Sharapova here, imagine the audio

@edward1591 Месяц назад

so...what were the racquets? Give us some info!! I have owned the Head Arthur Ashe, the T2000 and the Maxply in my (long) time so would really appreciate a bit more background.

@jamestan4165 Месяц назад

I'm wondering if Stan was using an early Yonex aluminium frame. Perhaps an R1? Gael...no clue.

@webtennis24 Месяц назад

What a great idea!! Loving this video! By the way, Stan: what's with the "eeeee"? 😅

@rl_danny Месяц назад

Imagine playing with those 😆

@movdqa Месяц назад

What were the racquets? I couldn't make them out. Monfils' looked like an old Ken Rosewall Aluminum but I couldn't be sure.

@Birdylockso Месяц назад

I wouldn't be surprised if these rackets were from some flea market, without a brand.

I love how in these challenges, they move like us club players. Makes me feel a little better about my game. :)

@martinlee8907 Месяц назад

Love these Time Travel vids bit it would be nice to know the name of the rackets each player gets to use -not always easy to see on the vids.

@alexburakov3109 Месяц назад

Vamos.

@poqeteer Месяц назад

Now you know why the players in the 60s and earlier were really the true GOATs. These look like metal rackets. The old wood rackets were much less consistent.

@michelegrassi4385 Месяц назад

I know that footwork and speed are two different things in tennis, but hearing Monfils saying that he has to improve his footwork shocked me a little bit :)

@juancarlosricarti7215 Месяц назад

sorteo... a Gael le tocó una raqueta de los '70, a Stanislas una de los 80'. Miren cómo cambia la velocidad en un súper tie break a 10 puntos donde no tienen tiempo de adaptarse a la "nueva herramienta" tipos que en condiciones normales desarrollan una velocidad increíble (esta última consideración teniendo en cuenta el revés de Wawrinka y la derecha de Monfils) En esta condición podemos pelotear con ellos., jjj😁
