Weekend update: 2nd week Sept 2026: T290, BOv2

Play tennis on saturday and sunday. On saturday: singles with rus 1-3, rosid 3-6, and then doubles 6-0 rosid vs indra-kelvin. On sunday: 4-6 aulia vs mursyid-hari, 5-5 yusuf vs aulia-don. All with T290 except for the two early games that ended 5-5. The T290 is good at ground stroke, just the right ground clearance, but can be hard at serving, feels like a 95.

Weekend update: 1st week Sep 2026: BOv2, T290

 Played for 2 sets on Saturday: 6-4 (1-3, 1-4, 4-4) nyoman vs ade-don 0-2 using T290 but switched to BOv2. Such a tough match but had to attack. Then, 4-2 BOv2 same partner and opponent but stopped due to partner sprained ankle. May want to add more weight to handle.

The T290 is now weight 221 with extra 5.5 grams weight in the handle and dampener. With overgrip should be about 327 grams.

Weekend update: 3rd week August 2026: T100L, BOv2

Played on saturday in KBI with adri, koko, azizah, bitha, rus, and anggia. Played several mini sets with them. Warming up with rus, started with T100L (with kevlar-multi) but ball came out short and then change to BOv2 and felt more power. 

Strung new T100-290 with hyperg round at 38 lbs.

Played on sunday for 2 sets: 5-5 (5-4) hari vs ramli-devi T290, and 5-8 (3-6, 2-2) edi vs faisal-diki BOv2. The second set was just high intensity. 

T290 is not as stable and sturdy as T310 tough lighter. The weight unstrung with leather grip is 297 grams, so with string, dampener and overgrip would be around 324 grams.

Weekend update: 2nd week Aug 2026: Beast 100, BOv2, TR960-3

No tennis on 1st weekend due to JSD event.

Played on Friday and Saturday. On Friday for a set of singles using Beast 100 against rosid 6-7(4). The games were pretty tight but I was a bit out of breath. Videos posted on YT.

On Saturday for fun games (pic below) on the last set lost 3-6 with gaby vs koko-anggia. Gaby was targeted. Played with TR960-3 on all, got an ace against rus but also a double fault. It is a nice playing racquet but I am not that good.

Weekend update: 4th week July 2026: T100-3, BOv2

 Played on saturday in KBI: 2-4 abi vs rus-anggia T100-3, 5-6 anggia vs abi-koko T100-3 then change to BOv2. Easier to play with BOv2. I was not feeling very well, and after a long deuce, I change from T100-3 to BOv2 because T100 felt heavy.

Weekend update: 3rd week July 2026: B100, BOv2

 Played tennis on saturday for 3 sets: 5-6 (5-3) ramli vs devi-endro B100; been a while playing against these two with their attacking game, 6-1 don vs ade-gatot BOv2, 6-1 hari vs don-gatot BOv2. B100 a good all around, but I was looking for a bit more spin. I think I had my fastest forehand with BOv2.
