LDSG - by Mahdzer Rahmat hi, i'm now monitoring this player through and through. First, Lin Dan make a word with his special grip when reporter ask why he like grip like that?, so he answer "..because i'm feel comfortable with it!". the answer remind me as amateur that i'll be next Lin Dan to use it. And i think the secret is for ball accurancy. Right now i'm still in powering my grip with power hand grip training. it can't be too fast thou as amateur there is more double then single player. Subsequently, i'm shocked! the latest All England 2010, the Lin Dan secret revealed when he lost to Bao CL. Why? because Bao using Lin Dan super secret grip. This Lin Dan armour killing himself. The secret super grip also revealed when underdog players here (All England) make a very-very successfull winners. Lets look wan ho soon (Korea) which come along from Qualification and give a LCWei headheche rubber game in quarter. Whos this player actually? bitting Chen Long and Yat Kin (more senior) then give LCW Rubber-Game?. The secret revealed when this korean is using LIN DAN SUPER DUPER SECRET GRIP. The Final Analysis when we can look this very young impressive player, Kenichi Tago which make successfull tribute and make Chen Jin cry all over day, and he using this Lin Dan Super Grip (LDSG). When u analyzing the semi's between Bao and this great Kenichi Tago. 1st and 2nd set they both (Bao and Kenichi) using LDSG. But u look the game when Bao start bored and he (Bao) change his racket to normal grip. Then, the 3rd round he collapsed to Kenichi. Lastly, this LDSG is giving more accurancy to the ball and this 4 player right now in on our list which using LDSG. 1. Lin Dan (inventor of Lin Dan Super Grip - LDSG).<- Bao killing him with this. 2. Kenichi Tago (make through to Final All England until now, killing Chen Jin and Bao). 3. Bao Chunlai (kill the inventor with himself). 4. Wan Ho Shon - Korea (killing Chen Long, and make C Wei real headche). --> truly, this final maybe will give C Wei one more headache when he'll face LDSG once again. But for me, C Wei still have an advantage because his experience and his really tricky skill which maybe brought difficult to kenichi tago which want a fast game. and now wats ur opinion?
Nothing revolutionary about his grip, really. By reducing unnecessary mass on the handle and adding athletic tape on the racket head, he's just making it massively head heavy, that's all... I wonder what bp is his racket... maybe 320mm?!
wow, what a secret. Wonder if i use that grip, can my shot be accurate enough and as powerful as lin dan?
Exactly..so,this thread should be renamed by.."Taufik Hidayat gripping style" ,which has been copied by other players,including LD.
..did TH copy from another player?..if so, then neither TH nor LD has the bragging right to this type of grip??..
Obviously, I was the one who started this grip. I was in school then (198X). I only had enough grip for the bottom half of my racket. Bloody thing gave me a huge blister. You can ask my school mates. I claim the rights to the prior art so TH, LD and whoever uses my grip style should pay me royalty for every game won.
I read in one of the chinese badminton magazines while he is interviewed regarding that special gripping.He said himself that he copied TH,but then he modified it again.
narnia seriously u are to harsh:crying: this is bardo in the wonderland but u spoiled the wonderlands fun:crying:
Oh, sorry for that. I should not have taken it too seriously... It was so interesting to make me check them out. Maybe, the players might have used the LDSG in other games, not in the ones in the photos.
Destricto_Ense, I'll gladly let TH use it since I enjoy watching him a lot. No harm letting him win another WC or something. . Yes, Narnia & Limsy, dun spoil my dream of making thousands then millions from royalties paid to use this grip. Imagine a dollar for every game won around the world.
