Good News!!!!! Looks like our boy Dimi is set to re-populate the Top 10 after his stellar performance in Miami!!!!!!!!!

Simons one hander lowkey cooking ngl

Best TennCom vid ever. I'd tell you my favorite 1 hander stick, but then people might buy up the remainging stock.

Bro wtf Simon should play with a 1hb

Prestige Tour Auxetic 2.0 - Great power and stability for a 95 Dunlop CX 200 Tour - With a little lead at 3 and 9 is a lot of fun to play with

This just in: Dimi is in top 10....and Simon is switching to the one hander

Amazing video. It has everything, including a surprise pickleball betrayal arc from simon

The funny thing about one-handed backhands is that in crosscourt rallies, they're very effective against other one-handed backhands because they allow for that high-kicking topspin if you choose to hit that way. I recently switched to the Wilson Shift, and using its higher natural launch angle I've been annoying the other OHBH users I play with (50+ high 3.5/low 4.0).

Love the new production style

This was funny. Ty !

Hi. The Pro Staff 97 is great if you play with a one handed backhand, but i prefer the Clash 98 V1. Cheers

Vcore pro 97 2018 was great... but i switched to the percept 100d. Its been great on the ohbh with a 31.5 balance. I may add 5 more grams at the butt to make it a smidgen more whippy.

Pro Staff 97 v14 now takes the top spot for all I’ve tried, previous favourites for my ohbh in order are Extreme Tour, Vcore 95, Radical Pro, Pure Strike v3 18x20, Vcore 98, Ezone 98,

Anything stable and control oriented, the RF97 is right up there!

Prostaff 97 and Six One 95 (18x20) are still what I like the most. Stable enough for defense and most importantly the balance just feels right.

My one handed backhand is my best stroke. For me, so long as the racket is sufficiently head light and at least 320g then it's fine. But that is my preference. I really struggle with balanced or head heavy frames. For context I have always used prostaffs. My dad taught me tennis with wooden rackets and I then graduated to a prostaff 85 and then moved to a six.one 95 in all its iterations until the blx and then switched to the pro staff 97 315 unstrung.

Best experience of a OHBH racket was an old Dunlop Max200G smashing backhands against the wall, putting it on a dime, was way to underpowered for match play these days though. Biggest surprise for OHBH was the Extreme MP considering how much I hated the Areo for OHBH I was shocked the Extreme worked so incredibly well, as all my previous rackets were more head light and had smaller head size's. Some rackets work better for me than others but I can't figure out why, maybe a combo of dwell time/pocketing and the way it whips through the air without sacrificing to much on stability, but that perfect combo would differ for different peoples strength and swing.

1HB have two main shots which have different requirements. At least 60% of the time we hit slices where stability and dense string pattern become prominent. However for drives/topspins though we still need stability, especially to give angles, racquet head speed becomes another important factor. That brings me to the conclusion to higher static weight with head light balance.

Prince Phantom 93p is great for OHBHas all as the Dunlop CX200 Tour

Great fun, guys! As a natural ohbh player all my life I wonder if more of us agree on this. I have been hitting a OHBH ever since I started playing tennis in the wooden racquet era and I've never looked back. Here's the thing. I often watch YT videos that say a OHBH racquet should be 95 to 98 sq in. I disagree. I love hitting the OHBH with my Head Prestige Classic 600 (89.5 sq in) as well as with my Prince Phantom 107G (107 sq in) and everything in between, head size wise. I use racquets from 85 sq in up to 110 sq in. I think the "small head size is best for OHBH" is a figment of our imagination. What do you guys think?

Not related to the vid, but I currently use the Vcore 98 with poly tour strike and like the tension maintenance and power/control balance. However I would like to have a bit better spin but most importantly more feel with this already muted racquet… What strings would you recommend (if possible full bed) Thanks 😄🎾

Most important factor is a headlight racket, 31 cm balance point unstrung at maximum imo.

Hello? Dimitrov just won his semifinal match in Miami and is back in the top 10 rankings!

At forehand the whole palm can support the racket at contact. At backhand basically nothing support the handle. So need some weight and swing weight and stability to get sufficient momentum to able to handle incoming heavy ball.

Wait Simon's one hander is actually kinda insane

Can you talk about extended length and one hand backhands? Gasquet, Henin & Gonzalez used extended frames.

Cuevas swings his pt313.2 XL at 381 sw with a 33.6cm balance and the highest twistweight ive seen (double layer of lead tape on all of the side of the racket)

The Volkl PB 10 Mid which is sold only through Volkl's website is an awesome racquet for the OHB and should be in the top 10. Not sure which is the "absolute" best but the Wilson K-Factor Six-One 90 would be on that list too.

Hey, this does not look too bad. Now keep on getting used to it and you will rock the courts. No way back to the 2handed Godzilla moves 😊

We learned Simon should get a Yonex sponsorship. That backhand is as clean as newly windexed windows.

I played with about 100 different rackets in the last 3 years with my one hander. And to be honest it has to do more with very specific specs rather than the racket. The only attribute that i can think of that is cumbersome for a one hander (but that could be related to my own preference) is that the racket cannot be too much of a power racket (thick beam, stiff) as with the one hander such a power racket is harder to control. The specific specs that are key for the one hander are: Mgr/i which should be at least above 20,9 preferably above 21,0. this is related to a depolarised weight distribution and gives a better control over the contact point. The second spec that is important is the balance, this should be low to have good manoeuvrability, but not too low as then you lose control. For me this should be between 31,2 and 31,6 cm. This could differ for other people, but a too high balance is difficult to manoeuvre and adjustments in the air during the one hander stroke are more cumbersome and you need the manoeuvrability. Third spec to look out for is swing weight. This should be high enough to give the racket a nice stable feel and plow, but not too high as you will be too late on your preparation. The last spec i want to talk about is twist weight on the one hander. this is depending on if you hit with a lot of spin (keep the twist weight low) or if you hit more through the ball, flatter (higher twist weight). Increasing the twist weight also reduces manoeuvrability so it is a double edge sword. All the other specs are unimportant for the one hander. Static weight is way too overrated and by itself keeping all other specs the same only has an effect on the speed of your kick serve (hitting up towards the ball fighting gravity).

What about the Artengo TR 960?

What in your opinion is the best user friendly 98?

I play one handed backhand. Recently switched from Blade 98 to Gravity Pro, looking for slightly bigger head without having to sacrifice feel and control. Honestly, I’m over the moon! I’ve heard opinions saying that the Gravity is not really a stick for ohb, but really I cannot agree on that one. Nevertheless I’d love to try some of the mentioned rackets 🎾

Prestige Tour 600 was best racket ever for single hander. MP98, Blade V8 weighted and RF97 are also really good but like the accuracy of the prestige

0:25 is criminal, gotta get the phone call on lol

Head Prestige TOUR 2021, Vcore 95 2018, Speed PRO, Pro Staff RF 97 autograph, Pure Strike 98 16x19.

I like paying one hand using prestige mid from 2012, 93inch head, 330g unstrung. Bur maximum i can play well is 1.5 hour, then my arm is dead.

Have you read Infinite Jest or is it just a massive paper weight?

Simon should switch to a 1hbh. The foundation is absolutely there and with some work would absolutely be cranking. But in regards to racquets, you can customize almost any racquet to be suited for a one hander. Anything over 100sqin and you are setting yourself up for a difficult time though. I use a Ezone 98 and I absolutely hated my one hander with it at first. Popped a little lead at 2 and 10 and it makes a world of difference.

5:01 nice setup you got in the back, you build it yourself?

That Tsitsipas clip 😂

Hi! I'm the guy usually complaining about Soprano endings. I'll drop my catchphrase now: is the soprano ending a trend now or something? There, you can upload the full video now! 👍

Any head gravity pro love here?

What’s the best racket out there for the one hander?

Hahaha great video 😄🙌💪

I'm playing with the Babolat PSVS 22, 330g strung. Balance 32,2 and 328SW with lead at 9 and 3 and 1g at 12. You can literally explode the ball and go down the line every now and then. Finally i don't have to slice every backhand😂

so what did we learn today: well .. yep, I figured as much!

Head Prestige is best 🤫 I've had a 1hbh for years. Ever since I had sufficient strength to maintain one. After hitting winners from this wing I often yell out a players name for emphasis (Blake!, Gonzalez!, Federer!, Thiem!) 🎾

i thought tsisipas was using a blade v8 and now a blade v9

Just out of curiosity what condition does he have that causes his hairlessness?

gasquet's racquet is 16x19, combined with the giant swing weight that's why he has the backhand with the most top spin by far

My pick is technifibre tfight 315, used by the one hander american

My dude says I see him use his left hand on screen and off screen. Just get’s ya thinkin, don’t it?

We learned that Dimitrov is defending OHB in top 10 players in the world. I hope he will inspire more kids to play OHB, as I also use it

These TennCom Productions (™) documentaries are getting out of hand... Top notch content

Simon Wawrinka with the Wawrinka Wacket with a nasty one-wanded wackhand.

as a OHB player i find RF97 too heavy, easier are Dunlop 200cx and Vcore Pro 97(h)D. Dunlop has best feel ever. The new Gravity pro is too sluggish and 100 inch too big. Solinco white out 16x19 has not so good feel, but it does what I want and feels predictable. Finally I had to try the Aero pro 98 but somehow it doesn't communicate well with me. I remember I had a lot of fun with the grey head extreme pro. Have not decided yet. Btw your OHB looks like a combination of Medvedev and McEnroe.

Similar to your match, there should be a permanent rule change in tennis that one-handed backhand winners count double, just because they look twice as awesome as anything else.

Sorry but One-Punch Chungus is a One-Handed Dingus. 🤠

Oh, what a cliffhanger. Please put me out of my misery 😮

vcore 95 has the most pleasant throat to grip with your off hand

The Wawrinka Wacket 😂

The best 1hb racket is 10,000hrs of practice lol

@6:52 wawrinka whackit?

Wouldn't the Whiteout 305 XTD or XTD+ be perfect for one-handed backhands? You only have the regular W.O. 305, I think, though, right?

I use volkl c10 pro for 1hbh

1st shot:" oh damn your OHBH isn't terrible" 2nd shot: directly into the ground.

Witnessing you hit a OHBH is like suffering Paires hitting FHs, no amount of slo mo Haas OHBH porn can fix such eye strain. BTW that Princes throat is narrow which is essential for instilling confidence when gripping the non hitting hand there on OHBHs.

Prime Thiem with his PS 18x20

Should’ve just asked me 😤😤

Yonex Vcore Pro 97HD

Blade 98s

The OHBH is by far the easiest shot in tennis. My one-handed backhand is a dream with almost any racquet. On the other hand, my forehand sucks with any racquet.

Boom pro?

were you one of the Dune extras, or ore you an alien?

Lorenzo Musetti 🇮🇹 💪🏽

Vcore 95 v7 could be a better racquet but it's too soft.😢

The first Tennconn video that sucks....I was hoping to get some useful info but all I got is a goofy video that's all over

You're both clearly no single handed backhand players, a pity in itself. But this video ends with the question what you've learned... So I still wander if there is such a thing as the best shbh racket. Or is it mainly the players technique?

Hilarious

There’s no such thing as a racquet with “ideal characteristics for a OHBH”. Since most players win more points with their FH than BH, it’s arguably better to prioritise FH performance when choosing one’s racquet.

😂😂😂

Videos like these should be banned, best racket for one handed backhand? Bull, give me 30 mins with any racket and ill hit one handers with✌🏼
