Earlier today, I was playing tennis with my eldest daughter (dear readers, she's 10.5 - when I started on the halfbakery, she wasn't born).
As we were playing doubles, there were points of the game where I was standing in front of her on court and unable to see exactly what she was doing. The mirror-framed racquet is made of your usual materials (carbon, metal) with a highly polished plastic frame cover on it so that I can put it up and have a quick nosey behind me without having to physically turn around.
Safety matters :)-- jonthegeologist, Oct 27 2018 You could also use it to tactically dazzle your opponents.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Oct 27 2018 // there was points //
Gr. "there were points"

"She's behind you !"-- 8th of 7, Oct 27 2018 How the devil is she playing you and is behind you? Oh, with. As you were.-- po, Oct 27 2018 Hmm. Gives me an idea.-- doctorremulac3, Oct 27 2018 Likewise, mirrored hurdles in the 110m hurdles running race would allow you to see how far behind you your opponents are-- hippo, Oct 29 2018 Bun for that one.-- doctorremulac3, Oct 29 2018 random, halfbakery
