I`ve been meaning to post this address for ages as I guessed many of you wouldn`t have had the chance to find this page. It`s a Japanese badminton page which has a collection of Java video clips of every shot you can imagine - clears, cuts, lobs, smashes, jump-smashes etc most of which feature the pros in slow-motion so you can watch and really see what`s happening with the shots they`re playing. The discussion about the position for the jump-smash helped jog my memory about this site. Although the sites in Japanese you`ll see a Video heading about half-way down the page and if you have time just work you`re way through the clips - you`ll work out which shot`s being shown I`m sure. And if you read Japanese it`s even easier!! The address is www.asahi-net.or.jp/~zt8s-oon/badminton.htm P.S The squiggly thingy " ~" should be higher up but Japanese keyboard can`t seem to do it???! Happy viewing!
