At the front you seem slow and take net shots very low - maybe because of the floor.

Examples where you could improve your shot disguise - 2:43 4:10. You could address + hold the shuttle, but instead your racket is very far from the shuttle and you only have one option to play.

your commentators were obviously experienced and added some very insightful comments

Thanks for the comments,
Backhand side needs working on again.
I have other videos in the same hall, I would usually take the net shots high but the floor was slippery and couldn't grip it as well. If you understand, that is really annoyed

Yea about the "commentators"..... :S

but I know what you mean, I think - but not sure I agree.

Your backhand needs a lot of work, the way you hit the shuttle now is rather ineffective. It's not surprising you can't get the clears to a decent length...
The way you hit the backhand now is with the wrist bending downwards first, then bending it backwards as you hit. There seems to be very little supination and gripping action.
The way you need to hit it is illustrated beautifully by any Taufik-backhand-slowmo. Your wrist needs to be bent backwards slightly (so, in the direction of the back of the hand), with the grip relaxed and your thumb on the side of the racket (45° from the broad, flat side). As you hit, you have to start the movement with your shoulder, rotating your upper body into the shot, then raise the elbow (without raising your hand, so relative to your elbow, it goes down), extend the arm while supinating and at the top, grip the handle and turn the racket so that your thumb goes to the flat side (pretty much a backhand grip, slightly turned sideways, but you normally hit the shuttle before that as you rarely turn to play the backhand when you can take the shot in front of your body).

Private videos dont work for us - needs to be at least 'unlisted' so those with the link can view it...

Thanks. It's against an independent club that groom our jumior player. They are not from national team but they are trying to groom them into one. My opponents are from the malaysian junior setup. Its a fun raising event. So my company sponsored and we got a chance to play with them. I'm just a normal social player. My partner is from the junior setup but some years ago. Obviously we are not so fit anymore

don't be too humble...;-)
you used to play more serious i would guess!?
how old are the juniors?
i like your style, pretty relaxed, pretty consistent and sometimes some "wild" running to the net paired with some nice anticipation/nice reading of the game.

definetely worth watching, thanks for posting!

**j4ckie** · 01-14-2013, 09:14 AM

Agree with Footwork, very nice to watch. Esp. with a lot of the videos here posted by Europeans, yours is a nice contrast as you play a more typical Asian style of play....like the atmosphere of the game. Seems like you're all having a lot of fun, and that's always good to see

Thanks for the compliment. The junior are from 17 to 19 years old. Still under full time training. I used to be more aggressive few years ago but aged catched up...slowed down alot now. Already 33 years old...well I'm trying to maintain my speed whenever I still can...haha
