To be honest, every player with a decent level of play do this in their game. and the anticipation is not only the secret to the forehand smash, but also the main reason that you can be early to the shuttle and be able to hit a good quality shot. what you probably wont notice in this video is that when lin dan is not waiting for the lift to his forehand, he will be anticipating other shots to come (and if it comes he will punish the opponent by taking it early in that corner). that means that this video tells how to be early to every single corner of the court. one of shuttle flash's videos is called "badminton is anticipation" and that is so true. the biggest difference between players on a higher level is: 1. Shot quality. 2. Cover less corners and anticipate the opponents shots. The second one is the most important as that makes it much easier to have a good shot quality. So what do we learn from that? The most important thing to learn as a badminton player is how to cover less corners and read your opponents shots! Something to think about for all players out there that only practise on speed and power in their training and forget about the most important things.
PG. LCW, taufik all have great footwork. What LD has over them is mental smartness and toughness which make LD look like he has good foot work. PG and LCW actually work harder but LD win because he out think them.
Badminton is a very defensive game actually. A bit like defensive driving where you think of all the bad things that can happen on the road. For example, a car not stopping at a stopline, a truck swerving out suddenly, etc. Good players anticipate shots and prepare for it. You just don't play badminton in a reactive manner, i.e. just responding to yr opponent's play alone. Anticipation calls for quick reflexes and fitness and being light on your feet. Having a good game head also matters... Both Lin Dan and LCW are supreme athletes. But Lin Dan seem a more natural player like Zhao Jianhua of old. Lin Dan is probably more ruthless on court than LCW, perhaps that is why he often beats him. LCW needs to be more aggressive and stop shuttles about. And note that Lin Dan always loses when he is not so fit. His game demands it more so.
@@buckrogers5331 no not really lcw was much more impressive, but Id smashes where powerful. Badminton is a total offensive game, rallies exist to waste energy, reaping there offensiveness. Drops aren't meant to win points, but prepare for a better smash. Play style gets ruined if your only defensive and decisive.
Corresponding to the last video "STRATEGY : Lin DAN against LEE Chong Wei", I find that, when the shuttle is at the net, Lee is more intended to move toward the net and get the net play; However, Lin Dan is more intended to step back for smashing. You cannot say which one is better. But I think that may be a reason why we sometimes see Lee is late for the deep forehand corner, and cannot do more variations.
it is a normal footwork for every left handed players but his anticipation to opponent's shots is very good and his shot making ability let him stand unique.
Nice video, bro. Just one more thing to add in. I think his incredible anticipation also plays a huge contribution to his footwork and his awesome forehand smash. When you watch him play, you can see that it seems like he can guess what's coming up next, and that makes him dominant the play.
There are certain directions that the shuttle always follows. If you push the shutte to the down corner on the left of right-handers, for example, they have to use backhand to return the shuttle, then the shuttle always goes straight (not diagonally) to the other court. The opponent can reach the place first and either smash (left-handed) or drop shot (right handed). Lin was able to force the opponents to follow his shots due to the power of theirs.
I've been playing badminton for about 1.5 years now. I got into it because I needed to rehabilitate my ankle since I sprained it. I found myself addicted to the sport, learned, and improved at a very fast rate. A month ago I finally hit a plateau but your footwork videos have recently made me reevaluate myself allowing me to improve yet again in a short period of time. Even my friends who have been playing for 10 years think I'm doing an amazing job (I'm no pro but I definitely think I'm doing really well - enough to call myself more than an amateur/beginner at this point). Thank you for these videos; without them, I wouldn't have been able to get where I am now. My next thing I want to focus on now is anticipating shots instead of just covering vulnerable spots.
I'm playin my 3rd year badminton and i've beaten champions of diffrent pronvicals in my country, I evolved really fast for a 14 years old starter now i'm 16-17 i am strong enough to keep up with my coach, If you have questions you can ask me i have enough knowledge to give :) also i get private trained by a friend of lin dan ( trained togheter when they where young to ) in summer feel free to ask questions ;)
You can also anticipate on the back hand side, but your opponent's shot needs to be a cross court lift/push. By anticipating, you don't have to move too early, but after netting, your first shuffle back already gives you enough momentum to do a backward movement and then smash. The key not to turn your body because you won't be fast enough, but you do move your right leg straight back.
Liwei Yang Lin Dan, Taufik, Lee chong wei, peter gade they are a legend, greatest player ever. but the king of backhand smash is only Taufik, no one can imitate it (my opinion)
nice n informative, plzzz make a longer video on d same subject"Lin Dan footwork" and plzz also add some more emphasis on d backhand toss, this would really help
well, i think this is also working because hes a lefthander, so players play to the backhand more often and he's ready for that. i don't know if it would work for righthanders in such a good way
Bumm Chakka Lets be honest, I'm pretty sure that all the players at that level know he's left handed, so it really doesn't make a difference. But it might for someone of not such high level...
Thanks, really heplful. I learned from other trainer and she told that it is better if we put forefoot ahead a little bit. But after watching this video, I have another think :))
actually our right foot should be half a step in front of our left leg for a right handed player...How does lin dan play with his racket foot behind him

Park Eun Wan hi.. can you please explain what you mean by covering less corners? thanks!
Your comment taught me more than the video.
Thanks.
as a badminton player myself, I can totally relate

He could anticipate better than the rest because his high quality shots gave his opponents limited options

It just shows that Lindan's legs are freakishly strong. I am not sure I learn much else
I, badminton, they came for 12 years, but there are no cases that I played a game overseas yet.
Lin dan has best footwork
What a nice video!!!
Please keep going!!!!!
Lindan the best player ever badminton. Legend
Great video and thanks for making it i learned it
amazing analysis ! please keep going ! thanks for your sharing !
please make video analysis about hidayat backhand
MON LIN
completely agree u 😃
MON LIN It's hard to do. but yes, I agree.. hahaa
+1
in terms of detailed skills, including footwork, Taufik is the best.
This is coming from a Chinese badminton fan.
Liwei Yang Lin Dan, Taufik, Lee chong wei, peter gade they are a legend, greatest player ever. but the king of backhand smash is only Taufik, no one can imitate it (my opinion)
Lin dan also said taufik is the most talented out of their generation
you forgot to uncheck that textbox :3
Thanks for another great video!
So much anticipation on last point against LCW 🥵
THE BADMINTON LEGEND LIN DAN
Is Peter Gate really wrong footed at 02:20? He is right-handed and he could be preparing for net shots. Any comments are welcome.
yeah i agree with you , i don't think he is wrong footed ,Lindan racket just reach the shuttle faster and have a time than push to PG forehand side
Very good these videos analyzes. Congratulations to the channel, keep it up. Hugs here from Brazil that likes and shares your videos. Keep it up.
nice n informative, plzzz make a longer video on d same subject"Lin Dan footwork" and plzz also add some more emphasis on d backhand toss, this would really help
Here is a stunning video for everyone play badminton.
Great video! May I ask which video editing software you use?
please keep video steady! the panning/zooming (e.g. 3:15) makes me feel like I just got off a roller coaster. or had way too much to drink.
Nice !
You're more analytical in your every content now.
chong wei and lin dan is forever rivals
keep making these ones......nice one
i want more like this, thanks brooo
LIN IS MY FAVOURITE
Thanks for your analysis
1:16 someone forgot to uncheck before rendering

id like to see more of this vídeos especially from LCW and LD, comparation of LD and kento momota would also be cool
Wow Thank you

Frederic K true ;).

I learned from other trainer and she told that it is better if we put forefoot ahead a little bit.
But after watching this video, I have another think :))
Your trainer taught you correctly. That is the basic stance. This is a variation which is very useful. You must learn both and use them both.
Why no coloured shoes? :c
Because this video just show leg footwork

I have been using this. Its useful
Very helpful video, although the text could be made more readable.
3:28 so efficient
I heard a coach saying that your racket(right) foot should be half a step in front of ur non racket foot

Taufik backhand please!!!!!

he does it so many times. It's almost an anti-pattern. Generally you want your racket leg to be forward. God.
please more
OMGGGGG!!!
You are so cool!

Song?

Thnx

May I ask u something?right-handed even can use this technique?
Viktor use that footwork too
Dear seniors, is it really not okay if i always always use anticipated footwork?
Not mostly but yeah
