Can anyone teach or describe the different way of smashing?special ways or tips, juz put it here.... thanks. i believe it will help lots of ppl though...
Here's a short list to get you started Quick "smash": a quick putaway... doesn't count as a real smah but it's a great point winner when you can do it! Just hit the bird straight down. standing smash: weight on racquet foot, which is behind you. start with racquet behind your head, swing the racquet forward while twisting your wrist so that the racquet face is pointing towards the front when it passes above your head. scissor-kick smash: same as above but do a hop while your racquet foot hops forward while the minor foot moves back during the smash. more power but takes more time to execute. jump smash: http://badmintonforum.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=9275 and my favorite: jump-smash-but-wait-it's-actually-a-drop!: same as above but you drop it to forecourt instead of smashing. Less tiring and looks just as menacing as a jump smash!
I like jump-smash-but-wait-it's-actually-a-drop's too! I've seen then done and they are very exciting to watch, especially if the opponent manages to return the shot. I just wish I could do it more often...
I like jump-smash-but-wait-it's-actually-a-drop's also, but it sucks when its used against you though. Your backing up a tad, and then u realize its a drop. Its frusterating.
Can anyone do a jump slice? I can't seem to get it.. like never! Anyone got any tips and anything to watch for. Most of the time it hits the frame but my slice with my feet on the ground is FINE. I hate it when people wind up and swing it so hard but it is just one hell of a slice. Yodums
