does ‘Debating Soc’ count? 😉

Dan Tennis? Haven’t bought one yet, but I used to have Prince. I’ll be getting the Wilson Ultra - v3 with babolat strings when I get into it.

Table Tennis, I was using the butterfly Timo Boll 2000, but my coach got me a gki one, which I prefer. Still need to figure out my strengths before I get a pricier one or get one customised. But I’ll probably stick to butterfly.

Badminton, I have a yonex arc saber, very happy with it.

      rhouses Ultra is a nice stick….those and the blade strung with poly strings.

          Dan Good to get another opinion on the Wilson Ultra, will lock it in when the time comes.

            I mountain bike, take part in sportives/road bike events, skateboard and surf

            My son has got massively into skateboarding so I bought a reissue Powell deck to join in when he goes to the skatepark. Initially just to cruise around. Started getting back into it and was acting like I was young kid again. Slammed hard on to my face trying to olie over a puddle. Pulled tendons in both my shoulder and ankle and took me out from all exercise for about two months (ankle ligaments were really painful). Also looked a right twat in front of loads of kids including my son . Learnt that I now no longer bounce when falling and that I am way to old to skateboard

              A couple of my mates have bought some long boards just for cruising around in the summer. The boards do look pretty cool not sure about the riders.

              I was contemplating a long board as looked pretty cool in st ives as there was loads of middle aged guys on them. Not sure I would look as cool in Leeds

                Am joining a gym for the first in a years on Monday.

                Going to get myself properly henched up.

                  I dont know whether ro be impressed or mortified by the 40 somethings on here skateboarding. Either way, be careful out there lads.

                  The recovery from injury time as one gets into one’s ‘sunset years’ is indeed rather alarming. I used to walk off an ACL tear or a broken collarbone with the help of 6 cans of Stella and a kebab when I was in my 20s. Now it takes c5 years and £150 BUPA excess to recover from a stubbed toe.

                    Dan if only it was doing a trick of this degree. Mine was an Ollie over a puddle. At least my face broke most of my fall
