This was a great refresher for me! I still struggle with smash accuracy and power. My biggest problem is the finger power. So many people in the past told me to just hit it as fast as I can to get the most power. You guys show me that it's not the case. Technique is king :)
You need to fully grasp the concept of acceleration in order to control power. One good way to improve finger strength is to grab a bottled liquid as it’s falling down. Your goal is to catch the bottle using your finger grip. Do it a couple of times a day and you’ll see significant improvements. Best of luck!
When I first started, people told me to flick my wrist when smashing, u get power from the wrist. But then I learnt forearm rotation from u and everything made sense.
Struggling these days with my smash it goes out most of the time. May be covid has a part in it but this on my timeline is a blessing. Thank you coach and stay safe. Lots of love and respect all the way from Pakistan....
First of all my greetings to Thomas sir,sorry for posting this question here but since it was the most recent video hence I posted here,while holding any kind of grip (forehand grip specifically for smash) should all my fingers rest on the grip or during follow through they can rotate?I am asking this because as a professional badminton player a lot of smashes go with brute power but many times they go with comparatively less power any specific reason?also please tell me the difference in technique between Mavis 350 and as -2 shuttle
Such a nice video to learn about smash, by the way your coaching skills were extraordinary any one can easily learn them from you thank you for this video....from INDIA
Additionally, should our thumb's end itself be on the wide side of the racket or out in the air(while the middle of thumb presses against wide side of racket handle)?
Thanks for the details on the grip. 😂 But I know the term hammer grip for a tightened up forehand grip (I mean that's how you hold the hammer), allowing strong pronation. You use the term for what I know as rush grip or panhandle grip (probably due to the resulting hitting action that's kinda like using a hammer). Since it's a video, it's clear, I'm just wondering where this different terminology comes from.
Yes the panhandle is also a word for that, I just think it is different what people use. Some of these "weird" words in badminton are made up words as the game has developed through the years... Its only in recent years I have been teaching in English so are still learning 😃 Thomas
Do you personally rotate your grip slightly (towards hammerhead grip) for a cleaner hit when you smash? Is this normal for the top players to do this too? Thanks
Hi Sir, A big fan of your content and much respect. During ready position the wrist should be neutral or rotated outwards and while supinating in the backswing the wrist is flexed, extended, radially deviated or ulnar deviated?
Menerjemahkan teks dengan kamera In Indonesian badminton culture, the jump for a smash is not vertical but rather inclined forward so that the shuttlecock is in the ideal position when hit. So the results are fast, fast and sharp in direction
I usually study Goh V Shem smash technique which is most of the time the way he leap in the air. The higher you jump the more angle and accuracy you get since I don't have a strong arm to produce a powerful smash so I relied heavily on angle and accuracy.
Badminton Famly sometimes not every smashes about power, even at 50% power but if you can get the right angle and accuracy the opponent definitely going to have a hard time returning those shots. Preserve your energy as much as you can don't just look for power.
Just a tip, do NOT always use the power smash. Personally, I use stick smash more than the power smash. I’ll only use the power smash when I have a great opportunity to.
Hey I had a query about an irritating opponent I met today in MD. He always served from the front right corner (if he is serving from right side) and served to the T or the way back so that the shuttle would pass over my partner's block first. Could you please tell a good counter to this nonsensical serve and tell if it is even legal?
Haha yes I know that serve, very tricky but also very dangerous because it opens up the court. What you can do is to step into the left field to receive it, but AFTER he has made the serve, it is not legal to do before he hits it. Try this, I´m sure he will think, what's going on, then just say a got a tip from Laybourn 😂🕺
Thanks man. In have always had problem with the overhead smashes. I came here again after a week just to tell u how much this has helped
Forget trick shots.
You need the basics first and smash is one of them.
Good video.
YES you are right, thanks 💪🏻
Correct 👌👌👌
You r right
Yeaah
We all need it harder 🙂

indeed, i have a friend that can launch a powerful lob. he swings it full power and misses every time in a whole set :spiderman's boss laugh:
Great explanation! Love it so much! Everyone need to watch this, thanks for sharing 👍👍
Thanks Gayus😉 Regards from Laybourn🕺🏻🤘🏻🤩

This was answered in another video right?
@BadmintonFamly no sir this is a new question actually a somewhat modified version of another question

Sir i couldn't synchronise elbow movement with the hip movement!...wat can i do!??🤔
Try to “shoot” your hip forward while moving the elbow as well, takes a bit of time to learn🤘🏻
Additionally, should our thumb's end itself be on the wide side of the racket or out in the air(while the middle of thumb presses against wide side of racket handle)?
Thanks for your video from south korea**~

Hey I had a query about an irritating opponent I met today in MD.
He always served from the front right corner (if he is serving from right side) and served to the T or the way back so that the shuttle would pass over my partner's block first.
Could you please tell a good counter to this nonsensical serve and tell if it is even legal?
By front right corner I mean the corner of the block in the centre plus the side extensions
Haha yes I know that serve, very tricky but also very dangerous because it opens up the court. What you can do is to step into the left field to receive it, but AFTER he has made the serve, it is not legal to do before he hits it. Try this, I´m sure he will think, what's going on, then just say a got a tip from Laybourn 😂🕺
@@BadmintonFamly so where should my initial position be in my box? Centre, between T and back corner,or near T ?
Just normal position so you dont show the opponent you know what he will do👌🏻
A little hammer grip, thank bro
Your welcome 🙏🏻
