Fire in the belly. Give her suggestive comments: "You are going to be the best player ever." "The way you are turning sideways is better than any one your age has ever been able to accomplish." Etc. Note the best things she does, and when she does it, reward her with a suggestive comment. Use a monotone voice, and slowly repeat it several times. (Hypnotic reinforcement is important with younger students. Esp. if it comes from several different angles/people other than yourself.) Read a book on it. Master the technique yourself. Make a tape for her to listen to as she goes to sleep.

Many items mailed to Ukraine are stolen in the mail. I'd just get some babolats http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/Babo...BAB-BJR11.html, , regrip them and string them with the best hybrid I currently use for heavy spin. Also inject with soft clear silicone about 15g to soften impacts. Good luck getting them delivered. LIke I said, use bhb7 mains and dryeex black edge whirl crosses: 63/43 How heavy are the frames she's using? About 280g?Last edited by GeoffWilliams; 11-20-2014, 04:07 PM.

Originally posted by GeoffWilliams View PostPUll the butt cap off, use a caulk gun, weight the silicone on a digital scale, inject both sections with an equal amount of clear, soft drying spongy type of silicone, put butt cap back on while silicone is wet, stand on end for two days so it can cure and not run down into the throat.

Pete talks about his serve in that book. He says, "I throw the ball up, bend my knees, and put it on the line.", and that's about all he says. Justin Gimelstob also got the same routine when he asked Pete:
"Hey, Pete, how can I serve like you do?":
"I bend my knees, etc."
He didn't want to give up how his serve became the best of all time. 6'1", and it was the most accurate, (2800 rpm first serve spin serves at an average of 121mph), the most easily reproduced, most relaxed, form of all time.
