5 Mistakes that are RUINING your BADMINTON SMASH 

there are some good points here, but i would say most beginners and intermediate players have two basic problems with their smash: 1) failure to move far enough behind the shuttle. this problem is due largely to laziness. you want to smash but you dont want to do the work required. that is just a bad attitude. fix your attitude and accept the work, and you'll see rapid improvement, 2) failure to generate power from legs pushing off floor. you covered this point in several ways but not quite explicitly enough. the lazy player always believes he can do things without deeply engaging his legs. this is what you always see in players below the advanced level. huge resistance to getting low and engaging the large muscles required to move explosively. smash power comes from your legs. there is an upward flow of energy that involves hip rotation, a preloaded, open chest and supinated arms, a swing that goes up high and has time to develop velocity, pronation (in both arms), and grip tightening at the instant of shuttle contact. handling all of this in a smooth continuous way is a fine art that cant be learned quickly, but none of it can happen if you dont begin with the foundation, which is at the floor. all your power comes from the floor. begin by getting into your legs and finding the power there

Came to improve my game, returned with a stab right in my heart!

Dude's "wrong" smashes still look better than the best smash I can produce. What a life.

Great tutorial 👍🏻. Maybe do a tutorial of an overhead swing and explain more about swinging with shoulder against swinging with forearm, wrist and concise. Again, great video 👍🏻

Thanks for your tutorial, other than that for beginners is to Smash until you get the feeling like whip the shuttle, let racket do the work until get the feeling your racket can't your power anymore. Time to change your racket from flexible to stiff, little by little, same with string tension. This will help a lot for improving smashing techniques.

Thnku aylex sir , this tutorial got my mistakes just right. U replicated the wrong/right forms quite well(for me), i could visualise my long term errors.

Thanks man. Seems helpful. Will try it out

The video quality and advice is great!

Love the explanation, helped alot🤙🏻

Thanks for tips man. I think i will can do it now

I wanna see videos of picking the deceptive drops more effectively when I'm at standing / playing at the 3rd court.

Video is amazing specially about balance while smashing…can you explain a bit about different jump smash ?

Great Video!! Right on Point

Nice video! Can we get a video on forearm rotation please!

Can you please also mention the point where the full face of the racquet is not meeting the shuttle causing it to slice and thus reducing power and accuracy. And how to correct it. Thanks a lot for the amazing content.

Thank you. 🙏🙏 we learnt something.

Thank you so much bro , I have game division meet on dec 1-2 ❤

Thank you helping me learn what I am doing wrong.

I would LOVE to learn from you coach. Really need help in improving my game at the grass root level.

Many thanks buddy for this video. Earlier, when I finished an hour of badminton, my forearm would pain and people told me I was using the wrong technique. The correct technique is to use the shoulder more. So, is my techique correct then? Specially during back court play aside from smashing?

Can you create a video with drills for improving hitting the sweet spot more clearly?

Thankyou sir 😊😊

Getting insulted within the first 5 seconds 💀

great vid, so i am with the victor bravesword 12 do you think i should switch to the nanoflare 800, a comment from a defensive player

helpful man thanks

Can you please do a tutorial for cross smash ,forehand and backhand side

There is another cause of losing power, you have to hit the shuttle as square on the racket as possible to the direction of the target. If its not square you will have slice on the strings causing a resultant force with the angle. That is if you understand physics.

Awesome inputs

Great explanation. Liked.

This is good tutorial I can improve my smashing.Prepare yourself my friends

very good, like no other.

This is the most educational badminton channel I have ever come across.....thank u 👏

can you do another video for Jump Smash. thank you

Great video! Can you also make a video how to train the backhand smash?

your opening statement stabbed me straight to the heart. Nvm, I'll keep watching 😅😅

What is the best brand of racket and shuttlecock to use in the tournament?

Very interesting !

Excellent explanation 👌 thank you

Can you please make a video on tirck shots.

thanks info

Yoo ik the court your recording in I used to always train there.

Cried till the end of the video cz u reminded me of my love life.

Hey, I am an amateur player and i can smash pretty well but, after every other full smash, by bicep starts to hurt. What's wrong with my technique

I see some mistakes not allowing for efficiency in power generation. 1) Body is too stiff; 2) Swing is mostly done through Arm movement (and initiating with the elbow) rather than full body; (which leads to #3) 3) Swing is done with the body remaining upright instead of tilted/slanted (body is upright vertically, and arm is traveling straight and parallel to the body); 4) Very little transfer of Force through the kinetic chain (so no power in those smashes); While I agree that forearm and finger power are very important, the Smash is a *full body movement.* The forces coming from the feet > legs > hips > core > shoulders all combine to pull the arm through the swinging motion at great speeds. Subsequently, the faster you can move the Head of the Racket through its range of motion, the more Force you can transfer into the shuttle. Unfortunately, there is only so much power you can generate through the arm and forearm alone as shown in the video. Don't just take my word for it. If you want some examples/references, just take a look at the fastest smashers in the world and look at their technique.

I generate power on my smash the same way I clear. The only difference is that the contract is more in front of me for a downward angle. Is this correct?

Nice tutorial, #1 is my mistake, i will following your lead sir

I never do those mistakes, never! I mean I do it EVERY TIME! 😂😁😂 Thank you coach! 😊🔥

Damn ace badmintion I'm from badminton victoria

I would appreciate if i can get personalised online coaching from you on this topic , 2.backhand clear/smash. And core strength and jumps. Regards. Have seen ur videos on backhand clear/smash too.(+rest of them)

Awesome

The intro hit me so hard

You were youby your Yonex jacket ❤️❤️❤️💞💞🥰🥰🥰 i like that

Wait aren't you that piano guy?😳

Whats your badminton racket

The first sentence is personal

Just 4 second in the video and i couldn't help myself but say "ooouucchhhh" btw I actually improved a bit after watching this

how can i fix the no 1 mistake , could someone tell me?

I thought I used to smash, but someone pointed out that my racquet which was flat downwards became inclined and turned into a Slice, reducing my smash power by 60%. Changing the racquet head, wrist control is not easy while playing

All the biggest smashers I know at state level throw their shoulders into it 🤔

bro isnt this guy the piano guy, why this asian so good at everything

bro did not had to emphasize my love life😭😭

Can you tell me what am I doing wrong in my smash by see 👀my 🎥

is it normal that is hurting??

This is the "piano guy" right?

Why are these courts that close to each other how is it possible to play that close????

ooof that opening triggered some trauma

WAIT A MINUTE!! piano man does badminton too!?!?!?!

Whattttt is this the piano guy?????

double like👍👍

Footwork please

Hii I am interested

What did he say about my love life? Lol

Beginners shouldn't learn how to smash the ball yet..... instead just try to hit as far as possible to the other side... and get used to the feeling of hitting every shot with the right sound... However, every desperate beginner especially adult, thinking of playing for long term, should consider getting a decent racket & badminton shoes... ie, brands like Yonex, Victor, Wilson, Li-ning etc... because badminton is fun and it's even more fun if getting more familiar with the basics...

❤❤

Are you korean, your English is very good

👍

someone with such a handsome face cant possibly have such a bad love life.

Trying to smash with jumping while you still moving is the shittiest that you can do to your ankle..

I think I have seen you playing a piano idk🌝
