Dig those wooden Aeroplane racquets. Wonder if there were film footages, not torched during the cultural Revolution, we hope.
from these old pictures, we can proudly say that badminton had modernized today. it had undergone revolution and it will continue to improve in the future.
we will have magical rackets that extend and retract when we want it to =) some stamina can be saved there =P hehehe...
i believe so (old fashion way, just replace the one string u break) =P i'm sure most of you know that badminton is an expensive sport. cheaper to just replace a string then the whole string bed =P
These photos are really a treasure for all badminton players.For many years I have heard about the legendary Tang aka "The Thing" and Hou Jiachang but have not seen their faces before.Thanks,Seawell.Nice to see Fang Kai Xiang in his younger days.
