Welcome yudhistira!!

Hi Yudhistira!!

The great thing being a beginner is that you can get much better quickly, if you just put some effort into learning the technique and footwork!! Have fun

. there are many tips in the forum on techinque, grip, fotwork etc :-D

hahhaha...i like LinDan's play..very calm, constant, accurate and powerfull playing...i hear his nickname is 'Super Dan' . Oh i like Hwang Hye youn too..not because of her playing.. but her look

i do not follow them, i only know them when local TV channel broadcasts the match (ex. Thomas-Uber cup, olympic games, etc). unfortunately the local TV broadcasts too few international badminton games..d*mnn it!

so in this forum i've seen subforum 'videos sharing' ...that's great for me hahha..anyway, thx fidget

hahahha...sorry... i live in small town, Jogjakarta

You mean the place of the famousGadjah Mada University?

The place where your hunger can be sated by gudeg??

Just a hop, jump and skip from magnificent Borobudur?!?

You should never call it just a small town. Wikipedia makes it sound quite lovely.

I should like to see it one day.

Are you a great warrior and Emperor of the world? Will you be the future saviour of Indonesian Badminton?

what do you mean by those words?

27 years old is too late to begin to be a badminton athlete

hahaha....and i'm not warrior nor emperor..

You share your name with one of the epic heroes of Hindu mythology... I thought maybe it had rubbed off a little on you!

**yudhistira** · 10-24-2010, 10:04 AM

hahaha... my dad has given me that name because he likes story of Hindu myth 'mahabharata' and 'Ramayana'

***cobalt*** · 10-24-2010, 10:22 AM

Your dad has high hopes for you! You better practise well for defeating all the forces of evil. I think you will need an ArcSaber to help you!

ahhahahha...yy is too expensive for me... i'm planning to buy a low end Li-Ning (ex.HC1100B or UC2400B) .. i hear it's good for a stiff racket...want to try...Li-Nings are still rare in my town..it is about around US$67 (the UC series) here..
