Australian Open 2010 Recap

Hello Rebounces Nation,

Well, more hardware for the favorites. But is it really that boring? No way!

My God, can you imagine how good Fed would be if he would have been pushed during the early part of his career. I sincerely believe he is better now than he was a couple of years ago. Once he adjusted emotionally to the fact that he could be beaten consistently, he has taken personal inventory, had some kids and come back stronger (and smarter) than before. So a big "Oi" to the master. Better get healed up Roddick and Rafa - your not going to beat this guy with sore knees and shoulders. Andy M., your time is coming! Been a big fan for a few years now. Heart and Brains and maybe the best return game in the game.

Congrats Serena! I never cease to be amazed by this woman. I really thought Henin was going to take it but once again I was wrong. Serena showed off her heart and her wheels (not to mention her amazing serve) during the last 2 weeks. Henin has comeback with a renewed (aggressive) game. I LIKE IT! If I could hit that backhand I dare say that I would dispatch my current playing partners with ease (Bill/Cannon.) Also, a big slap on the back to the Chinese contingent. How does someone make it to the semis of a grand slam with a first serve speed of 80 mph? Easy, FOOTWORK! We should all be so nimble.

How about an update on Rebounces you ask? Going to be an exciting 2010. Heading to Dallas Challenger at T Bar M next week for a recycling promotion. Thanks to Bob, Andrew and the rest of the T Bar M staff for being such loyal clients and friends. They completely get what we are doing. It is saving them some serious jack and they are serious about sustainability. Looking forward to meeting everyone in the flesh.

Big plans in March for a repeat performance at the BNP Paribas Open. Doing a bigger, better promotion at this year's event. Hope to announce a third-party partner on this soon. Gonna be big! Thanks Sauveur/BNP for sharing our vision. Fired up for the desert in 2010.

OK, I'm gonna give it to you now. We have a new product launch. You've been asking for it so here it is. The Rebounces' Green Machine! Now you can re-pressurize your balls on site and use them until the felt wears off if you so choose. Contact me at
grant@rebounces.com for more info. Never fear, we will continue to offer our free recycling program and recharging service for those of you who don't need our machine.

 

I have some major news on a personal note. Cannon and Angel are expecting - a baby! I can't think of 2 finer people to be parents. Just tell me the cute stuff though; don't want to hear about any "poopy diapers." Do you think we can get Pampers to print some designer Rebounces logo'd ones?

Well, that's it for now. Everyone say a prayer for the folks in Haiti and do what you can to help.

Grant
