Brian Gordon's 3D Technology in NY Times

[stroke]

I don't think the intention is to replace video, but Brian's research, based on his 3D analysis, did lead to his breakthrough research on the ATP, type 3 forehand. I don't think it can be called a gimmick at all.

So how about "the fleeting cursor" (for lack of a better term) that appeared for a while in all the videos but then went away? Was that just gimmick or substantial? Personally, I found it tremendously useful-- that chance to regulate full-screen video forward and backward at hand-regulated speed. The counter-argument-- that somebody could point to something by saying, "at 16 clicks you can see...."-- might have figured in this decision affecting us all, but I don't know. When people won't discuss the really important stuff, there is a temptation to throw up one's hands and say that people in this country in every walk of life just want to avoid substantial questions of any kind.

I see this as simply reacting to what is going on, similar to tennis.

Glenn-

Hope to see you in SFL.

GC-

Long time!!! Haven't we been talking about putting you in some iteration of the suit for years??? Hearing from you reminds me it has been a long time since I made it to the bay. Thanks for chiming in and hope to see you soon.

Brian--

It's been way too long! The weather is great right now, come and catch a flight.

On an unrelated note, do you have any idea why most of the girls use a pinpoint stance? And, more importantly, from your research, what's more efficient, and has more potential?

Cheers,
GC.

Well... I know many think of it as extravagant - I think of it as the best value I can provide based on the equipment used and the amount of time and work that goes into each analysis.

Currently $300.00 covers 3D real-time measurement of fh, bh, and serve with a 10 camera scientific grade motion capture system, Internet access to the computed results, and a follow-up 60-90 minute sit down analysis with me to discuss the good and the bad, and to devise a road map for future development options based on my research and coaching experiences.

Actually, IMO, an excellent bargain for a unique experience!!
Maybe I can make it down there in December....I just emailed you, Brian.
Invitation to come up here and speak...maybe.

Hope all is well.

Best,
Doug
