Always wanted to learn the half dive. Don't think a full dive is for me. Got some bad experience with my knees when I used to play volleyball and therefore I'm to scared to commit to the jump. Love the funny eyes at 3:48 Thanks again for the useful information. Might have to hold myself back a bit so I don't get the urge to do a cartwheel (although it might be a great distraction for my opponent).

There are actually 3 types of dives. In addition to the ones you mention, half dive and full superman dive, don't forget the pseudo dive aka trip. When executed properly the racket is often tossed into the air in a dramatic fashion followed by hands, knees and hips impacting the court in a rhythmic fashion. This is seen frequently at the amateur level and while playing drunk. Good times :) 🤣

Lol that would be fun to see

I dive about quite a bit and I'm pretty old now haha, It really is something that you do instinctively and some people just do it. There is one other guy at my club that dives about too but no one else seems to. If I could say a few points on this, the crash mat was good for initial practice and getting used to it safely. However, I would definitely recommend a thinner pad (like a think mat they have at the gym, not a yoga mat lol) as you still have a lot of height to that dive and that could put you at risk. When you go for that dive shot your racket will be in a low position, as your arm stretches out your body wants to follow it. Best I can describe a safe feeling for this would be deep lunge forward as if getting to a low net shot, but then sort of fall/pounce forwards from there onto the lower mat previously mentioned as that will feel similar to a safe height. Then you can work out what position feels safest to land for you when your try a dive. I hope that helps, oh and also, wear jogging bottoms or knee pads/supports to avoid friction burns as they suck. As always thanks for the fun videos ;-)

Great video! Have to study this one as I never dive myself. Which side is harder to dive and get the shuttle back would you say: forehand or backhand side? And why would that be?

I’m amazed that there is a tutorial on Diving in Badminton! I have been doing this for many years now. I now try to place myself better on court so I don’t have to dive. Still, if you do dive in a game the opponents may be so amazed that they don’t even pick up the shot that you send over the net. 😮 I also think it shows Heart and the motivation that you put into your game.

Awsome video ! Thank you for making it. Will you be competing in the Yonex Belgian International like last year?

Good video, not a topic that's really been covered before. I would say some specifics about what to do with your racket and hand would be helpful. I notice the racket face tends to hit the floor after the shot, whilst singles players tend to use the butt of the racket grip to land sometimes, and maybe helps them push back up faster like a lever Also I've definitely really hurt my knuckles by landing with my body weight pretty much entirely on my knuckles whilst gripping the racket, ouch. Also I tend to clip the outside bony bit of my knee which doesn't feel nice at all! Diving is a dangerous habit to get into in my limited experience 😜 the people who should be diving (ie. Light, flexible and nimble) probably already are diving. Please don't try it without practice..maybe Jenny is right after all! Curious as to whether any coaches ever encourage or practice this or not?

Brilliant video! Though at my age, I'm not sure I could get back up if I dived to the floor! I'll give it a try, nevertheless, what could possibly go wrong .... 🙂

A lot of good information! Thank you! Though I still have a question: What to do with the racquet (for example in half dive) when the hand touches the floor? The reason I found this video is because I hurt my pinky with a handle of the racquet. I really hope to avoid this in the future 😂😂😂

Once you dive you never stop. We have this guy from our club, he dives for everything. 😂

@crazybeebob

If he does it so often it might give his opponent the advantage since most returns from a dive will be the same. So his shots might get predictable. And all this jumping around is very tiring. I would play this on purpose to wear him out so I could more easily finish the point on the next shot. It's good for a save, but nothing beats fast footwork.

I was looking forward for Jenny dive without the matt actually. Great video overall!

badminton insight will you make a video on s-serve, i want to learn that serve for playing badminton, please

I have Q Where should I start badminton from correctly? From footwork? Or special shots or sth? Or should I first strengthen my body?

I’ve always preferred the Cannonball but I’m not sure if that would help win a point. 😁 Practicing this move might be best while wearing knee pads and wrist guards (like the kinds skateboarders wear….for those that don’t have access to a padded mat), especially for those of us that are not young with elastic body parts!

@stevemawer848

Жыл бұрын

If you land on your hands, your knees shouldn't bang on the floor at all. And my body parts are far from elastic!

For those who'd like to practisr the initial push for the full dive but don't have mat, you can still try and go to a trampoline park if you have one close. They hopefully have mats or a drop plave where you can land safely. Good luck !

I'm known in my club as a diver. I dive because I'm out of position after playing my shot. One dive that I do, that you didn't cover is a roling dive. I think somewhere between a half dive and a full dive. On a forward dive on the forehabd side, instead of landing flat, you roll so you land on your back/shoulder. Your momentum rolls you over your back ointo your feet.

@crazybeebob

Hi. I think a roll might be slower or disorientating. But if you do it you need to scream "Rolling Thunder" (like in Haikyuu, look it up). We're not all 16 years old, so rolling is out of the question for me :P

Top players dive 500-600 times in training per day, but LCW committed himself to dive a least a thousand times in his training.

Would you recommend trying diving also in lower-medium level play? I mean - is it useful for all players?
