I absolutely love your video please make more of these video ❤❤❤❤

I was just wondering a few days ago about which equipments i should buy and if it's a need or a want and I saw your video today! Thank you so much for the information and recommendations all thr time!

Hey there! I love watching your videos and practicing using them I used to have a alpsport racket now I have good black knight one and I'm gonna start training soon thanks for helping me whilst I couldn't train yet 😁

Enjoyed this one, thanks! I'm a beginner and started playing 9 months ago. Now to my gear, I just want to point out again that you don't need fancy stuff: Racket we bought years ago, know nothing about it. Yonex Mavis 350 blue/yellow because at uni those are the only ones other people want to play with and we don't use feather shuttles. Old running clothes I already had (shorts have a zipper, need it for my student ID). I bought new shoes for use inside, but after about 9 months I'm not sure if I made the right decision, something doesn't feel good. I don't get blisters or stuff like that, but I feel quite slow in them. All that goes into my backpack or a tote bag. All in all, it's not perfect but more than enough for me and it gets the job done, I'm having so much fun. I'm so happy to have found my favorite sport and something where I don't care so much about the gear 😂 Unfortunately I'm holding my racket the wrong way and need to relearn a lot, found that out through your videos. And I notice it while playing, too, it holds me back. I'll definitely need to sort out that shoe situation, though. I want to try feather shuttles, but right now I don't think that this is the right moment, I need to improve the foundation first, so I'll wait (cost is a factor). Oh and I'm a bit of a silly cyclist because I do need to hold my racket in the hand, sometimes even the tote bag, too. It just doesn't fit in the backpack. Greetings from Germany :)

Have to disagree with your 2/10 for Performance on the clothing. How many times have you seen players wear cotton shirts that soak through with sweat and then cling to their body? That is surely making a big difference in their play!

just a random thought, im hoping you would do video about badminton playere category ( beginner, intermediate, advance, professional) im not sure which category im belong to, i have watched couple of video about this topic but it it inconsistent, i would like to know your view about this, again nice video as always.

I like the puns 🤣, I'm an intermediate player(I think) and all details in the video are really helpful especially the strings because I didn't know that lower tension has a bigger area of the sweetspot, so when I get a new string or racket I'll make make sure to apply your tips.

Yeah, ordinary shoes are designed to propel you forward, badminton shoes support the sideways twisting actions you need. People are amazed at the difference they make, after being initially skeptical when I proffer such advice.

Would you guys recommend a good budget racquet for an intermediate player

. Love from India here you big student

clothing does a lot for performance! (freedom of body and joints and more) actually the same goes for injury prevention (slippery in shoes, more comfort, sweating, breathing)

I just literally was thinking about it. In a blink of an eye,The solution

I also have cooling healing gel with me. In case if something happens, that i have at least something to treat it immediately.

Cool😊

Ah thank you, that's so nice to hear!!

Once you've settled on a racquet you like, you should have (at least) two of them, so you have one to play with while your other one is being restrung. We don't all have on-site stringers doing a while-you-wait service (or a stringing machine)! Regarding shoe grip - mine were so grippy it made me fall over and break my wrist! Another point about shoes is that badminton shoe sizing seems to follow a law unto itself so you may need to go up a size or two from your "normal" shoe size - try before you buy! Another thing for your bag are plasters, just in case (bag?), and a pen to sign those autographs! 🙂

Have you guys made a video about play style?

Thanks for another great video! I would give a much higher performance rating to clothing though: wearing a cotton shirt in a high intensity game is way too uncomfortable as it doesn't wick away the sweat, it just collects in the shirt, making it heavy and clings to your body- much better to wear proper wicking polyester 😁

For players looking to extend their badminton life span (older players past 30s at an intermediate or higher level), can you make an episode on injury prevention equipment like knee guards, patellar tendon bands, elbow bands if necessary.

I need a Lamborghini svj so that i can reach my academy early. And train more 😢😂 Everything 10/10

The change of clothes when talking about beginners and plastic shuttles is hilarious

Talent is what I need

So, which raquet for a beginner I should buy?

I'm a bit late to see this video, but what about shoe insoles? Do athletes customize their shoe insoles from the original ones and how important are they?

Can we talk about the spot on impressions of beginner players? Looks pretty authentic and how I used to play when I started!

I was given a supermarket racket to play outdoors. My strings in the sweet spot snapped after 3 soft swings. My opponents (beginners) gave up after I was still able to hit returns .😉 We had a good laugh.

Great video, but you are missing something increadibly important. While quickly mentioned as a back-up it should be highlighted IMO! And that is a bottle and snacks/powerrbars. I've seen too many people crash, sometimes faint, or develop headaches because they didn't drink enough or didn't eat enough. I even keep extra power bars with me to competition matchs and tournaments because there are always a few people that forget to eat!

What is this sweet spot you speak of? My best shots only use the edge of the racket! Also you forgot to mention Slush Puppies, our club organiser usually brings a stash, rated 10 for performance (those E-numbers make you move fast), 9 for injury prevention (hydration, cooling, nutrition and strength conditioning (opening the damn things with your teeth) all in one and 10 for style - I can really rock those bright blue plastic tubes.

Can Basketball shoes work for badminton? It also has good gripping

Also what's it about wrist bands and head bands?

Hi, I have a doubt on some shots for many year 1. How to take or defend the stick smash?? Bcoz it is difficult and differ from normal smash. 2. How to take or react to the punch clear on both sides??? I am 163 cm its hard to react to these shots Plz upload some videos regarding these..

useful and funny video

Is it normal for racket strings to snap after 3 years of playing ? I started frequently playing by going for a month to a badminton coaching and one day when i was continuously smashing my string snapped..

If I keep playing/comfortable with flexible racquet (doubles) does it mean I'm not progressing as a player?

I actually uses shuttles from the bin, just looking for those with all intact feathers 😂

What about eyewear protection?

I’m still using my Proace sweetsport 1000, Proace widebody 55 rackets and Yonex carbonex 21sp rackets. Strung at 28lbs, BG68 strings, changed grips whenever grip felt worn (about 10 games) Rackets are kept well in a decent racket bag. Shoes are very important to me, I would rather spend on shoes than ok rackets. Footwork, technique and game IQ wins the game, not the most expensive racket in the world.

@stevemawer848

One of my coaches told me that one of the best racquets he'd ever played with cost him £20! It's all about balance and feel, not price!

The most important equipment in badminton and in any sports is the correct SHOES. your legs and feet is important in performing most sports that’s why I choose the right type of shoes that I am most comfortable with. For me, its ok to buy low-mid range rackets,shuttlecocks,clothing,bag but badminton shoes is what I am not cheaping out for.

Have you guys ever tried 3 in 1 shuttles?

Are wristbands and headbands important?, I use a headband so the sweat doesn't get on my glasses cause I use glasses, I use the wristbands for, mmm, style?

i think if you are playing competitively, the racquet and string will play a role where it will give you that extra 10-20% more. But if you are playing recreationally, it wont matter. Give an ex-state/national player a 25 quid racket and they will still beat those mid/advance players who join their municipal tournaments using 150+ quid racquet.

I tried the yonex grip powder with a towel grip a few weeks ago for a first time - it was a game changer for me. 10/10 if you also have sweaty hands

I think clothes play a very important role too, some material and design can helps you cold down your body temperature quicker and keep you feel good, it definitely will help you perform better, so I’d say 1 shoes > 2 clothes > 3 water bottle > 4 racket = strings > 6 bags etc

Is white top and shorts frowned upon?
