Racquet World Records

Max Brown racked up 47 hits in 60 seconds on a Swingball, the classic garden game where a tennis ball is tethered by string to a vertical pole and batted back and forth with racquets. Made popular by Mookie Toys and a staple of British backyards, Swingball is also known as tether tennis or totem tennis. Max's rapid-fire rally sets the opening mark for this fresh RecordSetter category.

Jose Manuel Martin Molina of Ayamonte, Spain bounces a tennis ball on his racquet 106 times in a row while hopping on a pogo stick in an underground parking garage. He keeps one hand on the pogo stick and the racquet in the other, and the ball never touches the ground until he ends the run with a big overhead swing. RecordSetter tracked the ball through the single 55 second take, which has no cuts, and our count lined up with his 106. Two kinds of bounce, one steady rhythm.
