Haha, same here but i am still growing i think. I can also see that you're same age with me. I like Bao's smashes, he is more concerned on the placement than the power most of the times and sharp thanks to his height.

**Dreamzz** · 10-19-2006, 10:37 AM

women always seem to look taller anyways, especially if the difference is small.

Anyone know how tall Poul-Erik Hoyer-Larsen is? I've always admired his footwork, how light he appeared to be covering the court despite being a big guy for badminton player.
