I was at a brand new local gym before its opening. After chatting to the owner we decided to test out the courts. the facility is a huge 35000 sqft warehouse that holds 18 courts. that night there were only 3 of us there. I hitted a few shots and instantly got goosebumps hearing the absolutely wonderful sound of badminton echoing around the huge facility. This is the sound that we all live for, this is the sound that stirs our blood, the sound that is like a magnet and attract us to the gym day and night, and now isolated and amplified to its glory. and i want to share it with you. listen not just for the impact, but the faint echo afterwards. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/shared/sounds/badmintonsound_cba.m4a it is music to my ears. it is a 1.5MB download so please be awared.
iono abt you but i like this one better Nelson Heg smashing at LCW at Elvin Teh's dad's gym http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKLt7_rgl_o
kwun, I kind of remember you speak Cantonese. Now I know for sure you speak Cantonese The sounds of the perfect strike of the racket on the shuttle is like a musical instrument hitting that perfect note. Having the gym to yourself is like a solo-violinist playing rather than part of an orchestra. It was good thinking of you to record the sounds and thanks for sharing.
I just download the file and try hear it using my ear phone. . And omg. i keep feeling like my eardrum keep got punching by the smashing and killing of the shuttle.
