    I can't lob past 30 times...
    what am I talking about? I mean lobbing on the spot, keeping the bird above the ground with ur racket (without letting it rest on the racket)....
    used to do this alot in primary school :D
    great for concentration and control (i think bwahahaha)
    just curious how many times can other bfers can do it :p

    dunno about 1 shuttle
    25 hits is about my best with 2 shuttles at once (like juggling 2 balls one handed)

    Did close to 30 times with my ex doubles partner once I think.
    Ended up with a sore neck and arm.

    Re

    Hi,

    i think i can go frm 15-20 hits at 1 shot.
    i think lobbing only for warm up purposes.
    i also don't like to lob for long.

    Oh you do mean keepy uppy's..........as a variation on warmup we have the kids pass the racket round their backs in between shots, sometimes through the legs as well just to make it fun
