the tricks aren't so hard. The way they play them, the way they play... They're magicians. It's like hey Mum, I can do a card trick, you know how it works. These guys are illusionists. great upload!
hard to see what happends, but it sure as hell gives a great impression of how i will never be able to play haha! Great sport, GREAT points in this vid...
These are amazing shots, I've tried some of these, and every once in a while you get lucky, but never with any certainty. Btw, may I PLEASE have the title of this song? It's awesome...
its trick shot because it requires excellent timing. half of the focus professional players applies to the shuttle, the other is the body language of the opponent. what you saw was the manipulation of the two. you cant call yourself a good player if you could not fathom how well these moves were executed.
@twinbows It's the original, except back when this was uploaded RU-vid didn't allow any video higher than 240p resolution. No need to hate on this video, it was one of the first compilations of its kind here which is why it has so many views and everyone else copies the idea. The guy who made this channel is an international level player so maybe he's not the worlds greatest video editor, but boy I bet he'd thrash you in a real game of badminton which is what really matters in the end.
Lol, that's too bad because that 'idiot' happens to be the world no.1 :p But it just shows how well Gade was putting pressure on Lin Dan. At professional level turning your back isn't good but it's sometimes necessary to get back certain shots and also adds power to backhand smashes.
I agree that table tennis is fast, but look at its proportion with badminton. Table tennis uses a smaller sized playing area while badminton uses a bigger court. It may seem like table tennis is faster, but imagine if you play table tennis on a court the same size as a badminton court
Agree. Try (or imagine) playing table tennis at a table only half the size of that of badminton. You'll see it isn't that fast. Has anyone tried hitting a ping pong ball with a badminton racket? Will it fly faster than a shuttle?
they showed several points lin dan won. a couple of his fakes and one where gade did his classic backhand fake, but the shot was just long. gade has the best deception shots in the game.
seriously taufik hidayat would own all of these guys if he actually tried. Note peter gade is wearing out, hes like 30 som right now, hes not gona last lokng in tournaments
1. youtube, after a couple of years, downgrades the video quality of less watched videos, which, in a way, saves lots of space. but in doing so, it damages viewing experience of some rare found videos 2. badminton, like any other games now, has moved from skill to fitness. games are fast, and people depend on endurance to play matches, damaging the game that once was more enjoyable for it's use of sharp, fast thinking and wits... RIP Peter Gade...
