    What Westerners carry more stuff and have gear to make up for their lack of playing ability? ;P



    PS If you haven't figured it OUT: I'M JOKING!
    PPS I can't remember cooler's original theory, must be getting old and forgetting stuff :(
    PPPS I've also discovered that vB doesn't accept the correct spelling of colour :p

    See my new bag~~

    Kwun, Ants:
    Yup, that's for 2 people, RedDog, and her lovely partner iyang. :)
    (the lovely partner is the bag carrier...)

    mongoose:
    There are extra underwears but I might have to charge you to see those.

    Cooler:
    I just got a new bag for myself...hum...gotta find more stuff to fit into my new bag... (see attached for my awesome new bag...currently empty)

    LB:
    OMG, I DID forget to mention the reddog...iyang is keeping that dog, I need to find myself a new one to put it on my new bag. :(

    quagmire:
    Could you believe both my partner and I ran outta racquets to use during a tournament even when we each had 2 backups? 7 racquets are not enough for us, hee hee.

    Pecheur:
    If that theory is correct, I need to go buy some more gears to stuff up my bag.

    Wow you people are amazing! I usually take out all my shirts and towels at home after a badminton session and my bag is usually empty other times filled with only racquets and shuttles, wristband and lots of papers. I just dump the receipts from badminton courts into my bag, empty it once in a while though. My bag is probably the most empty one in here... How shoes can go into ones bag I wonder, my shoes are usually kept on the shoe rack. Lol!

    my friend just came back from a trip in asia and she bought two of those bags, one for herself and one for her bf. One of them was bright red and the other was bright yellow, I heard there was a bright green version too!

    Re: Mini Shuttle

    I took 2 old shuttles, with a few broken feathers. The superglue wouldn't come out so I took off the tip to squeeze it out. At first nothing. Suddenly, superglue all over my hands. 2 fingers nearly got stuck together, spent the whole night peeling off dried superglue. Nails still damaged with glue.

    Somehow I didn't know that even the biggest badminton bags could have a compartment specially for shoes. I used to carry 5 racquets in my bag, then when someone said "You're crazy" I decided I was and now carry 3 only. :) After I don't really change my racquet in between games unless I feel that the racquet is not helping me in my game. Just finished my tubes of shuttles forgot to buy again. :(

    they break easily..my friend made one and we hit a few clears around with it..:D. It's kind of a waste after spending 1-2 hrs making it..

    And with the ones you can buy (the car ornaments)..they break even easier..if played with

    And expensive since you can get a tube of shuttles for about £9-10 and one of those ornaments cost about £3-5.

    Geez if some of u sold the entire contents of your bags, you'd probably be able to feed a small nation *bwahahahaa* :D

    I've never seen such variety hahahaha :D :D :D What an eye-opening experience :eek: But I guess since you have the space in ur bags, why not? :)

    Nothing much in my bag-
    1. 5 racquets: Yonex Boron2, AR55, AR66, Cab22 & 2xMP99
    2. 1 Tube of Victor shuttles
    3. 1 pair of shoes (I've forgotten the model no :p )
    4. A couple of spare grips
    5. Spare shirt

    :D

    its not that big... its supposed to be a 6 racket bag... the 4 rackets with their covers fits into one of two compartments... the other compartment stores the shuttles and shirt... while a shoe pocket takes up the space from the shuttle's compartment.
    I am thinking about only keeping the MP's in their covers and leave the other 2 without because the bag in kinda heavy with everything in it... dont know yet... dont wanna break any of the rackets... the cover provides that little extra protection.. or peace of mind at least... :D

    Oh well... i might decide to take two covers out...
