Wow, every badminton tutorial mentions the importance of the split step, but this is the ONLY one that actually explains exactly how and why, and in a very clear way too. This is great- thank you so much!
I am a professional Badminton player and I have never seen anyone explaining split step with this much detail . Too good video .I have also shared it with my friends.thanks bro for making this vedio

in 8 years of badminton and learning from youtube this was the best splitstep video and its not even close (in reallife i feel that in my area this is completely forgotten about while I think it is the single most important thing to become a better player) cant wait to see more videos of you
I rewatched this video again paying attention to the finer details. Tobias mentioned many golden tips fairly quickly or demonstrated them and even though there were brief,they are clear and immensely valuable. This video is a must watch...one of the best I have seen online addressing issues not covered by others. Looking forward to the subsequent parts.

I'm sad I can't like this video more than once!!! I'm transitioning into an intermediate player and all of your vids has been tremendously helpful :) thank you Tobias.
great video sir, I used to do the split step without knowing what it was for, realised it would give me an explosive start after watching the video, keep up the good work.
Just wanted to let you know that your videos helped me a lot in terms of gaining speed on court. Your vids have clear explanations, not just "do this, do that".
You have shared a very detailed and very effective footwork in the easiest way. As a pro badminton player, I really mean it. Kindly make a video on the match strategy/plan of singles game. Thanks for the lovely video.
Great video mate, was searching for for work videos for quite sometime and your presentation was easy to understand, will apply these to play better, Cheers
Aloha, awesome video Coach Tobias another great video. Thank you. Your tips cannot be repeated enough. Your lessons and exercises resonate clearly for me. Thanks again for your help I really appreciate it..
Thanks Tobias. Very helpful reinforcement of the recovery to the centre also. I'm becoming more conscious of the importance of "following" the shot. I'm really enjoying badminton, learning from these lessons and seeing the improvements. I got some pleasure this week from coaching a 10 year-old for 30 minutes and seeing how much he improved in one lesson.
5:40 In part 1 you said that you want to try to push off with your feet right when you land but here you said that you can change your position to get to the specific corner. How would you do that when first landing, or would you just do another split step, thank you!
Good question and both is possible but I would just use a second split step if the opponent completly tricked you and your starting position and the position of you body weight is totally off. In most cases you can push with the landing and do some small corrections with the other foot to cover different corners. In the scene that you mentioned i do that in the second "example": I start like i expect a smash to my left side so i push with the right foot but then I reposition my left foot to change the direction to the front court, but still use power from my push with the right leg
Hi Tobias, great video really helped to clear up some points on how to use the directional split step, was just wondering whatkind of split step is used after performing a drop from the back court as it can be used defensively and offesively? Keep up the good content
It depends on the trajectory of your shot. If you play a drop really close to the net the return will most likely be very short or long again so you don't have to cover your midcourt. If you play faster dropshot the opponent can also push it a little more into your court. In both cases your footposition should be offensive so one foot in front, but in the second case usually a bit more neutral.
Awesome video, Excellently explained about split-step. Thank you so much sir... You gave me much information that I don't understand from others. Great sir👌👏👏.
Hey Tobias, der deutsche Akzent war nicht wegzuhören ;) Hab mir schon vieles angesehen und find das Format echt klasse, vor allem wie Du Dein Wissen gut argumentiert weitergibst, mach weiter so! Falls Du Feedback wünschst, dann hab ich noch was loszuwerden. Was ich an dem Video besser als beim Smash Tutorial finde ist, dass man tatsächlich in Echtzeit sieht, wie Du die Bewegungen ausführst. Beim Smash-Video hätte ich mir eine Demonstration in Echtzeit gewünscht - vielleicht auch schon direkt am Anfang, damit auch der Zuschauer merkt, "von DEM lass ich mir den Smash beibringen - ich gucke das Video weiter!" ;) Drücke Dir die Daumen, dass Dein Channel durch die Decke geht und freue mich auf neue Videos!
Ja, man muss ja nicht verheimlichen wo man herkommt :P Vielen Dank für dein Feedback, werde ich mir auch jeden Fall zu herzen nehmen für kommende Videos!
@@tobiaswadenka8435 do you recommend we always split step sidewards first when opponent hits and then add appropriate directional split step to then aim in the direction we want to go to, or always split directionally towards where we want to go to?
@@chitung2277 try to split into the direction where you want to go if possible and avoid another split or correction steps. In offensive situations that will be a lot easier, in defensive situations you should use a neutral footposition and have to adjust if your opponent is not smashing to the sidelines
Also if i may ask one more question please...when exactly should we do the split step..if we know clearly where the shuttle is going that's easy. But maybe for side defence we don't so we might split the moment opponent smashes and then decide which direction to lean towards. Correct? If you could be very specific with the timing please e.g. a milii second after opponent hits and we see the shuttle leaves their racquet, etc
Excellent tip, without corny humor, love it! Just subscribed! Can you explain more about pronation and supination, and how and when to apply it? Keep up the excellent work!
Thank you =) You need both, pronation and supination in almost every shot. By moving the elbow towards the shuttle your arm will supinate (forehandshots) or pronate (backhandshots) what creates the backswing of your racket. In the hittingphase you rotate the other way round so pronation in forehandshots and supination in backhandshots. If you look at the biomechanics of the different shots they are all very similiar and follow the same principals.
Coach, Very useful video with with tips... The jumps are support the movement. Thanks for the video. At the time of jump (also skip, Jagging) my knee feel pain. what can I do...?
Yes especially explosive strenght and a high rate of force development help a lot. When you have a high maximal strenght compared to your bodyweight you will definitly be explosive in your legs. Squatting twice your bodyweight is extremly strong but you need a very good technique and have to be careful and experienced to work with that kind of load. I am sure that there are several topplayers that cant do 200% bodyweight
Great explanation, but I'm still struggling with the timing of the SS. If you are in mid air when the opponent hits the shuttle, how can you get your push off foot into the correct splayed position to move efficiently? You will surely have to make some late adjustment on landing depending which corner the shuttle is headed? Any drills for this please?
Anticpation is key if you want to use directional split steps so you can only do it, if you have a clue during the jump, where the opponent will play. In most cases you can do it when you are in offense and the opponent is under pressure. There it is so much easier to read the situation and your opponent is also limited with his options. I talk about it in the advanced footwork tutorial in the part about Lin Dan and a there i also give some tips for drills. you can find the video here: ruclips.net/video/PGwrspAkO0E/видео.html
@@tobiaswadenka8435 thank you for your reply. I think I possibly have better racquet skills than my regular singles opponent but he has better game reading from his high experience in squash so I'm generally under more pressure and feel off balance. When I look at top players they never look off balance even if under pressure. Therefore I believe the Momota drill might be the best one for me?
Hi Tobias, I know rackets dont reflect how good someone will perform on court that much, but can you please do a racket review? It seems like your racket of choice is an as11 but it would be nice to hear your review of it as well as other rackets if you can, thanks for all the cool vids!
Hi Jush, i use the AS11 for the past few years so it is hard for me to make a good review about other rackets. In my eyes the racket choice is something very individual and so you cannot really say what is good or bad but i will think about some tips for choosing a racket for an article or a short video in the future =)
hello, how to know to put right or left foot behind when we are un offensive position close to the net ? for exemple after short serve in simple, how to wait the return ? ty
Hi Tobias, Very good Video. I have one question regarding your Split step to the right Front Corner. I did IT as you have shown, but i think IT IS Not the best possibility. You get Back with your left foot. This means you lose space by doing so. I think IT would be better to Not get Back. Could you comment on this plz?
Hi Joachim, yes you loose a little space but you can push a lot more into the direction where you want to go. With a narrow footposition most of the energy of your start will go downwards into the floor and the result will be a up-down-up-down movement on the way to the corner. That is very slow and ineffecient, so the few centimeters you loose are totaly worth it ;) I also talk about it in my latest footworktutorial: ruclips.net/video/nsz448MxkZw/видео.html
What you mean with small single shuttle drills? Just google center of gravity, or center of mass, you will find many videos and pictures that describe it better than words ;)
Wow, every badminton tutorial mentions the importance of the split step, but this is the ONLY one that actually explains exactly how and why, and in a very clear way too. This is great- thank you so much!
