Plastic Sweepers (Other Options) |
|---|---|---|
| For decades these apparent cleaning tools have been the only solution in providing up to 70-80% accuracy (this is assuming the operator is adept at using it correctly and at the optimum angle | We have visited Clay Court Tennis Facilities across Florida and have noticed a common pattern in their tool sheds. There is a tendency to cling to outdated inefficiencies, as if they may someday become useful again, even though these hopes seldom yield satisfactory results | Repeatedly attempting the same approach with different materials, such as Aluminum or Plastic Sweepers, is a futile effort in achieving maximum crispness for Tennis Lines. Despite the continuous replacement of parts and the collection of artifacts, no satisfying outcome has been met thus far. We can, however, look forward to a breakthrough with optimal results in 3rd Quarter of 2024 |

The Handy Clamp ™
Again so many applications on and off the court, we experienced a great test on our proving grounds at our community courts during the back to back devastating Hurricanes Milton and Helene here on the East Coast of Florida 2024. Instead of using zip ties, which we all use, cut, waste, they break, creating debris on the courts, etc., but having The Handy ClampTM about every 4 feet holds your rolled up wind screens simply and easily, no waste, environmentally friendly, and strong as tested..
