Slow Mo Too Slow

I've been a fan of watching slow motion YouTube videos of tennis players. Here's the problem. It's too slow. Of course, you need it to be slow to see what's going on.

But because it's so slow, you forget just how fast the pros are swinging the racquet. I was watching the Sony Ericsson Open being held in Miami (I think), and pros really swing very fast, which, of course, explains the pace.

Of course, the faster you swing, the better your timing has to be. I tried swinging faster yesterday, and sent lots of balls sailing skywards.

So while it's good to look at slow-motion videos, watch them at regular speed too.
