I'm a right handed player, but seeing you guys also give so much attention to the opposite hands (that you guys use) like showing right hands and left hands, really shows the quality of your videos! I appreciate it alot!
I managed to mastered this technique after a year learning it. When people ask me how to do it, I dont know how to explain it. Now, that both of you have made this video. I will ask them to learn from you both. 😅
excellent treatment of this topic with lots of detail. the most impressive example of a cross-court reverse slice i've seen cuts underneath the shuttle with an almost horizontal slicing action (otherwise prep and follow-through are exactly the same as your demonstration), the result is a fast but rapidly decaying trajectory to the net corner that kinda bends around the net and seems to just fall out of the air from there. the professional player i know who does this can hit it consistently in matches. it's such an awesome shot that it's difficult to make a quality reply even when you know it's coming, and many players i've spoken with who've faced the reverse slice cross-court drop shot from this player agree it's the most difficult to return drop shot they've encountered. i've practiced it that way many times but still have trouble with consistency, and find it much easier to be consistent with the shot as you demonstrate it. but although i haven't mastered that slice with the horizontal action, practicing it has given me the skill of being able to finely adjust the amount of slice (forward or reverse) by adjusting the racket angle at the moment of contact so i can combine smashing and slicing action in any proportion, which i find useful to vary attacks. i'm never even sure what to call these hybrid slice-smashes, but for me that is an added use of the slice drop shot, that the technique can be carried over and blended into variations on the smash. thank you for all your hard work and beautifully produced instructional videos
thank you for the tutorial, I discovered this shot accidentally during practice since young, but never had anyone explaining it to me properly like in this video. My accuracy with this shot was never great, hehe but it was really effective, coz it often fooled me too. Hopefully I can fix it after understanding it, and play it with more confidence.
Another great video 👍. One of my favourite shots and has won me a countless number of points over my 45 years playing this wonderful game. Love your channel and I am still learning and trying to implement some of the techniques that you demonstrate so well (as much as my old bones will allow 😬). Keep up the good work.
There is a HUGE skill difference between the slices you presented and the ones I commonly see or use when hitting with a panhandle grip, some beginners or intermediate are stuck with that grip. More than Half the time I hit the frame of the racket using your professional method but with the noob grip the reverse slice has no problem reaching where I want. Attempting the shot in the late game with the forehand grip is particularly risky to me so I appreciate the tutorial.
Awesome video as always ! Quick question: For reverse straight slice should I strive to use same height of point of contact as for smash (or same as for reverse cross with straight arm) ? I'm asking because for some reason, it's much easier for me to hit straight reverse shot with a bit lower point of contact (and arm slightly bent).
Hey Greg and Jenny! I have a video request for you - Could you make a compilation with all different shots like forehead/backhand drop , serve , clear , smash , late backhand/forehand , slices , behind the back , brap , etc with 5-10 seconds given to each shot and if us viewers could refer to that back again for the perfect technique trying to copy you and you would also get many views from a single viewer , would also increase you watch time! Please consider doing this😀
Hello thank you for this video I can learn more moves to become stronger and I wish for Victor Racket badly but it is to expensive for me. Watching from Phillippines
@@BadmintonInsight Thank you very much for the warning 😀, luckily I play at a decent level, it's just that I tend to overpronate my forearm which gives a bit too much angle and hence goes out . Didn't realise some aspects of the shot until your video was uploaded just at the right time and hence I was thinking to apply the tips 👍. Some people just make it look so natural, it's a beautiful shot.
This is another very good video. Could you do a video for the opposite slice please, ie from right to left if you are a right hander. I find slicing from left side to right as per your video natural but from right to left very difficult.
I have a couple of questions... 1) straight reverse slice, what is the aim/deception of this? To make the swing look like a more powerful stroke but actually it's steep angled shot? Or is it more of a tight loop/dead drop kind of shot? 2) The straight reverse slice stroke seems to look like your brushing the shuttle face on (horizontal?) and slice 'across' or is it more of an angled 'cut'? Ie over pronate angle when contacting the shuttle? Or, does it depend on position you are vs location you want to hit? I find it hard to find the sweet spot between overpronation then cutting too thin and not enough and becomes a half smash...
1. Yes to either make it look like you're hitting harder or cross court! 2. Yes it's more of an angled cut as you would say. It takes time experimenting around with it! Hope that helps :-)
Love the tutorial! Do you think it matters where you strike the shuttle? I noticed Zheng Siwei seems it hit it to the side of him rather than straight above him?
Thank you! As we said there is a rough “spectrum” of the contact point for each of the two shots. As long as you’re within this spectrum then no it doesn’t matter!
@@BadmintonInsight how to clear,and i always confuse about the footwork.I saw many player put right leg in front. Does it necessary for the scissor kick?
lately I’ve been experiencing moderate lower back pain (right sided) after every session. Any experiences with this? I’m wondering whether I’m leaning in too much or whether it’s poor footwork.
It could be a bit of both but it could also be for many other reasons! We have both had back pain in the past - the best thing is to rest and do some light stretches! The back is a difficult area to deal with!!
Got second overall for singles in districts. Idk why but everytime i try to switch from forehand to back hand it always goes to panhandle instead of backhand
We’d recommend adding some core training into your weekly schedule! If you want some ideas we have 12 badminton core circuits on our website 😊 badminton-insight.com/shop-all-products/

Excellent clear explanation of how to do this shot. This along with the stick smash I feel are some of the most underrated shots in doubles.
Thank you so much Mike!
Great timing! I've just been thinking about learning this shot 🙏
Perfect, hopefully this video helps! Good luck 😀
A really really good explanation of the slice drop shot and actually it has been my signature shot for over 1 year now

Damn....thank you so muchhhh I love you guys
Thankyou guys
You're very welcome 😃
it's good to learn this one at a young age. also thanks for using meters and not inches or whatever
Definitely! You’re very welcome 😀
This is very good video
Thanks a lot 😀
I have a tournament in 2h. Will give this a shot today haha 😂. Its a brilliant technique
We wouldn’t recommend trying it in a tournament without any practice first! But if you do then good luck 😂 haha

Thanks for your request! We've just released it today, here's the link - th-cam.com/video/Uos0VSJ_Z3o/w-d-xo.html 😀
Thanks guys I’ll practice the shot and try to perfect it😂
Good luck! 😃
Any tips on generate more power in my overhead forehand?
Watch our 'smash power' video! 😀
please do some deception trick shot
Please make a video on Lin Dan hold and flick deception 🙏
We’ve already made a video on this!! Called ‘3 types of deception in badminton’
@@BadmintonInsight Thanks❤️🙏
This is another very good video. Could you do a video for the opposite slice please, ie from right to left if you are a right hander. I find slicing from left side to right as per your video natural but from right to left very difficult.
Thanks! 😃 Yes we want to do the “normal” slice tutorial soon!
Is there any tournament you're currently preparing for?
Thailand Open!
hi team, do you recommand Brave Sword or Aura ? depends of the player... so lets think it generally
I have a couple of questions...
1) straight reverse slice, what is the aim/deception of this? To make the swing look like a more powerful stroke but actually it's steep angled shot? Or is it more of a tight loop/dead drop kind of shot?
2) The straight reverse slice stroke seems to look like your brushing the shuttle face on (horizontal?) and slice 'across' or is it more of an angled 'cut'? Ie over pronate angle when contacting the shuttle?

1. Yes to either make it look like you're hitting harder or cross court!
2. Yes it's more of an angled cut as you would say. It takes time experimenting around with it!
Hope that helps :-)
Li Z Jia is a perfect example of a drop shot
Love the tutorial! Do you think it matters where you strike the shuttle? I noticed Zheng Siwei seems it hit it to the side of him rather than straight above him?
Thank you! As we said there is a rough “spectrum” of the contact point for each of the two shots. As long as you’re within this spectrum then no it doesn’t matter!
i love u both thank you
You are the best
Thanks 😊
Is always necessary to come to the middle after every shot ..and how to stand on the court basically leg positions ..please explain...♥️♥️..
No definitely not!! We’ve done a basic footwork video if you want to check that out 😄
Will u give me a another video for this reverse cross-court technique in another style to explain....
Oh.. I've been always hitting my crosscourt like this! did not know it was a slice XD
Is there a way to hit crosscourt if its not a slice?
There is but it won't be as deceptive, or it would be a smash! :D
Finally... a useful video for my singles match 😃😭😀😭😀💩
Lots more to come 😀
Can you make a video about clear and the footwork
What specifically would you like to know?
@@BadmintonInsight how to clear,and i always confuse about the footwork.I saw many player put right leg in front. Does it necessary for the scissor kick?
Check out our latest video for a tutorial on this 😃
What should be the grip while playing this short
lately I’ve been experiencing moderate lower back pain (right sided) after every session. Any experiences with this? I’m wondering whether I’m leaning in too much or whether it’s poor footwork.
It could be a bit of both but it could also be for many other reasons! We have both had back pain in the past - the best thing is to rest and do some light stretches! The back is a difficult area to deal with!!

Yesssssss
This shot is deception at it's best.
Hey badminton inside I want to no how to play lee zii jia backhand smash
Thanks for the suggestion!
On 23 may I am going for delhi state I am practicing
Enjoy!
My drop goes like a curve it goes very high and the shuttle lands on serve line
how to strengthen the core?

I attempted these shots yesterday and ended up disastrous. Now I know what i did wrong lol
Glad we’ve helped you to learn! Good luck with it in the future 😃
@@BadmintonInsight You are amazing.
This is really difficult for me. Since i'm right handed, but im confortable to do it in the left court.
Anyone can explain why the left-handed players have the advantage while doing drop shots?
If you tried to do regular upload your audeince like me will love you
We do regularly upload - every Sunday at 10am UK time 😜
Second
I appear to have some talent for this shot and my opponents hate me for it.
We call it the piss-shot 😅
😂
