Thanks, this is a much better angle. I know it's difficult in racquetball to capture what's really going on on the court. The beauty of professional rball that is. You kinda have to be there.

I like that this is an official league where someone actually took the time to print out official looking brackets. However, leaving it on the glass hides the action from the viewer. most of the right back wall is blocked from seeing the action. Maybe show the bracket for 10 seconds in the beginning then take it down off the glass?? Just my .02...all that said, love to see the videos, thanks for keeping racquetball alive!!

I agree totally. I miss the 80's too. What happened to racquetball? I hope it is not pickleball. Not a fan.

Kane should've called a timeout after giving up the first point. That would've been hilarious.

Unfortunately, this is exactly why Racquetball never took off the way it should have. It’s virtually impossible to find the ball for the TV viewer. The angles are never right to capture the ball’s movement, especially on the 3 wall glass court. I played it for over 40 years but now play pickleball which is obviously slower in some regards but move viewer friendly. Btw, I just watched an old match with Sudsy and Ruben on a back glass wall court and it was much easier to follow.
@ckminty6038 ай бұрын
Pickleball is deadly boring to watch. This match could have been filmed better. The IRT games my eye can follow the ball and what's happening, and I can enjoy watching full matches. I just think they chose an unfortunate angle and jostled the camera too much, unfortunately a few point of this and I'm seeing so little of the game I just have to move on to a better option.

It occurs to me that racquetball's biggest problem is clear when the GOAT is playing and the seats are empty. I sure miss the 80s.
@indanekwaffles707411 ай бұрын
While this match was less than an hour away watching the match's live stream worked well. Likewise your sentiment about 80s it was a glorious time in racquetball pros to novice.

Here's an example where modern materials and improved manufacturing have killed a sport--most of these "rallies" were two hits! Compare this to tennis, squash or badminton in which the players are jockeying for position, and the rallies (especially in squash) can be truly gut-busting. In tennis, they have slowed down the game by making the balls thicker and adding more friction to the court's surface. Perhaps some measures like this need to be explored for racketball?
@justinsheely720311 ай бұрын
that's a bold assertion. This match is greatly imbalanced since Kane is one of the most dominant players in this game.
@jdoza518411 ай бұрын
There are several past and current factors as to why this sport has declined, at least in the USA, a few major ones are poor marketing and poor production of major tournament events as well as a huge interest in paddle and pickle ball but in reference to this match, Kane is at the world class level and his opponent definitely is not. No matter what weight,speed of the ball or racquet strength the outcome would have been the same.
@jeffs481711 ай бұрын
I'd suggest you take up pickle ball then! 😂
@carlosibarra178911 ай бұрын
Sir, you cannot compare Raquetball to tennis, squash, pickle crap, or badminton. The IRT now plays with a black ball which is slower and does not bounce the same as purple ball. Stick to what you know. Kane is a BEAST. GOAT. In a tournament, you get to play the top players. This kid is obviously not on the same level, but he has a lot of courage to step in the court with the best player in the WORLD, would you do the same???
@erikp650510 ай бұрын
He never put Kane in a defensive position, if you give a pro - lame ducks, he will roll them out 8/10 times. Man was just way overmatched.
