Sounds like a stupid thread. Pardon me, if it does. But I'm just curious if you guys have played with hot chicks who can't play badminton. Do you play trick shots to impress them? Do you whack real hard to show your prowess? Do you go very easy on them ? Do you act cool and professional?
trick shots al the way my friend lol And if they are watchin me play sum1 else, lots of jump smashes! lol
depends if you're playing AGAINST them (as opponents), or WITH them (as partners), or they're just watching if against, always play for "fun". so trick shots and lots of clears lol with, then get to a comfortable lead first then start playing around and if they're just watching, full power baby!!!
Well....Excuse me, but I don't give a **** about hot chicks. But! If they somehow wanna join my side, I wouldn't mind showing my smashes...
In most recreational clubs in North America(in general), the ratio of hot ladies(actually good looking in most eyes) and guys is like 1:20... so another word, even if only half the guys are interested in that 1 girl, there are still 10 guys from that 1 club going after that 1 girl, and not including all the other possible guys outside of the badminton circle that are interested in that 1 girl. Plus, seriously... how many hot ladies are impressed with badminton amateurs? I would suggest if you want to impress some ladies, then expand your "zone of competence" outside of badminton... because quite frankly it is very sad if one has no other talent besides badminton(which a lot of people see it as a sissy sport).
There are many chicks in a club, but not everyone of them can be called a "hot" chick, you know. If there are that many hot chicks playing badminton in North America, I am sure the sport would have been way more popular than what it is today. Maybe instead of picnic backyard badminton, changing it to bikini beach badminton(ladies only, please) would be nice.
Sadly my club has a similar ratio if not worse. However there are alot of members and the standard is good+ so it's not all bad, i'm usually too busy playing dam hard to concentrate on who (hot chick or not) is watching.
if playing with or against them...i just go fairly easy...but why try to show off :S even in front of normal people you look like an arrogant idiot doing trick shots (unless its mucking around with some friends) If they are watching and im playing a decent match i dont need to show off...just play normal. Im at a more advanced level then most people at my club so i dont need to show off to look quite strong. Just need to play normal and they can see. and a protip for you : Girls dont like show off, trick shot, cool acting dooschbags lol
You obviously haven't been to some of the Richmond clubs. Or, hmmm.... maybe he isn't interested in chicks. Dang, if there are hot chicks around, you gotta play to impress!
disgusting people.... perverted.... I'm not gay, but i tend to avoid playing mix double, I don't like girl on my team. Sorry not being sexist or anything like that, I just rather play with a guy so i can get long with. Being around with guys obviously give me feel more comfortable. And some people just gonna turn around and think bad about you when you're trying to be friendly. I said SOME. So I rather not get involved in that situation than have a little chance of getting it. And if i happen to have to play with a girl, I always keep my mouth shut and just play and try my best to cover for her. Because that's just part of a game helping the partner weakness. I'll play agaisnt them sure, but when I play with girl, I tend to go easy on them, so to me it's kinda boring. (If and only they're a weak player of course, cuz obviously some ladies are crazy) So again I tend to avoid playing against the weak women player if i can. If no other choice, like no one else there for them to ask then oh well. With a weaker male players, I at least able to do full smash or decent smash shot. You rather hit a guy with the bird than hit a lady. Everybody around you gonna start stareing at u? (wow that's one weird word, sorry if i missed spell)
4chan much? *ehem* sauce pl0x. On topic: I just tend to concentrate more on my game. Trying to impress others when you aren't even that good will turn you into a LOLcow more than anything.
Erm...From what I heard from those hot chicks, what I impress them not the hard smash, it's my footsteps...She said it seems like dancing. So guys, practice your footsteps and DANCE in front of them, LOL.
