Off to sunny climes for a tennis holiday at the end of October! Our Aldiana Travelscout winner, Paula, had been looking forward to this since July. In July, Paula won Aldiana Club Djerba Atlantide METZINGEN OPEN 2024 , the $15,000 ITF tournament in Metzingen, Swabia Together with her tennis-playing friend, she then headed off to warmer climes in Djerba. Not only did sunshine and wonderfully pleasant temperatures await them, but also 12 clay courts, delicious all-inclusive meals, and a huge range of sports and relaxation activities. The two students were thrilled with the diverse options at the club and experienced a tennis holiday straight out of 1001 Nights , one that they will remember for a long time! What the two experienced on and off the tennis court during their week-long tennis holiday, and how Paula rates the club and everything surrounding it, can be found in Paula's detailed travel report, complete with beautiful photos! Thank you, Paula, for your fantastic and comprehensive feedback! And a huge thank you goes to Aldiana , who provided us with this tennis holiday week.
vibration dampeners on the market, and everyone probably has their own preferences. Vibration dampeners generally reduce string vibrations, making the ball impact quieter and protecting your arm and joints in the long run. We asked Andreas Maurer, formerly ranked No. 24 in the ATP world rankings and a German Davis Cup player alongside Boris Becker, whether he prefers a dampener and if he has any advice for you.
Tennis & Golf – this was the motto of the TennisTraveller exclusive camp at the Aktivhotel Marko on Lake Klopein in Carinthia from October 2nd to 6th, 2024. The international participation of the campers demonstrated the great interest in both the theme and the destination. They traveled from Sweden, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, and Germany. This also shows that our camp philosophy of constantly changing camp focuses and destinations is a resounding success. Even though the weather in Carinthia was far from ideal, we had a very varied time with plenty of tennis, golf, other activities, and great conversations. The international, diverse group of tennis travelers turned out to be a truly fun-loving bunch who defied the bad weather with high spirits and plenty of humor! And all this in a host hotel where we felt completely at ease. You can read all about what the five camp days were like and what we experienced in our travel report here. The excellent feedback from participants delighted the hotel, the Klopeiner See Tennis School, and me in particular!
I'm an advanced beginner and don't really know much about strings or string tension. Which string, which type of string, and what average string tension do you recommend? Should one also consider age and gender?
Besides tennis hotels and camp organizers, I'm always interested in the people who work in these hotels or camps, or who are involved in the vast and diverse world of tennis in various ways. I always find it incredibly fascinating to hear how they got their businesses, what motivates them, and where they want to go! So, to be honest, I was really looking forward to my interview with Boris Krumm . Boris is a tennis legend and is even called a "tennis rocker" by some. In our interview, Boris gives us a glimpse behind the scenes and sheds some light on the "mystery": who is actually behind Bidi Badu, Toolz, Balls Unlimited , and other well-known brands? All these brands belong to Spodeco GmbH , where Boris is the managing director and owner. In the interview, which you can follow in both text and video formats, he also reveals, for example, what the collaboration with the retail giant Tennis-Point looks like and where he himself prefers to play. It's an extremely relaxed and enjoyable conversation that you'll certainly find entertaining!
And a generous, exclusive TennisTraveller discount of 22 percent awaits all those who want to order something colorful and cool from the Bidi Badu shop.
For us TennisTraveller so important , yet most neglect them. It's only when wrist problems arise or tennis elbow sets in that the hand and forearm muscles are addressed. We've tested the new Reflexit forearm trainer and want to introduce it to you today. It truly delivers significant results in strengthening forearm muscles and improving wrist mobility! This will give you more strength and mobility and reduce your risk of injury. In this article, you'll learn what the Reflexit is all about, how it works, how it can help you, how it was developed, and the company behind it. In addition to an in-depth interview with Adrian Göldner, one of the two founders from Bonn, there's also my own personal experience – after all, you have to test things yourself before presenting and recommending them!
So that you can gain more punching power with better forearm muscles!
