..are those Fidget's barely used SHB80W JP shoes??..is he playing barefeet now??.. wow, your racket collection grew from 7 to now 11!!!.. and yes, the most significant additions after 7 yrs: 2 knee wraps.. ..i'm starting to wonder, 7 yrs from now, will your collection grow even bigger or stay the same??..
..i thought you'd add the elbow wraps by then??.. But yes, indeed, i surely can attest what you feel & experience at the knees, legs, arms, elbows now after playing in comparison to 7 yrs ago (myself, even can feel the soreness after nearly a week off of not playing). I guess i'm not as hardcore a player, thus i haven't used any knee and/or elbow wraps.....but pretty soon, i might have to apply Ben-Gay Hot & Cold treatment at the joints after playing..
