    Enjoyed this one, thanks!
    I'm a beginner and started playing 9 months ago. Now to my gear, I just want to point out again that you don't need fancy stuff: Racket we bought years ago, know nothing about it. Yonex Mavis 350 blue/yellow because at uni those are the only ones other people want to play with and we don't use feather shuttles. Old running clothes I already had (shorts have a zipper, need it for my student ID). I bought new shoes for use inside, but after about 9 months I'm not sure if I made the right decision, something doesn't feel good. I don't get blisters or stuff like that, but I feel quite slow in them. All that goes into my backpack or a tote bag. All in all, it's not perfect but more than enough for me and it gets the job done, I'm having so much fun. I'm so happy to have found my favorite sport and something where I don't care so much about the gear 😂 Unfortunately I'm holding my racket the wrong way and need to relearn a lot, found that out through your videos. And I notice it while playing, too, it holds me back. I'll definitely need to sort out that shoe situation, though. I want to try feather shuttles, but right now I don't think that this is the right moment, I need to improve the foundation first, so I'll wait (cost is a factor). Oh and I'm a bit of a silly cyclist because I do need to hold my racket in the hand, sometimes even the tote bag, too. It just doesn't fit in the backpack. Greetings from Germany :)

  • @stevemawer848
    @stevemawer848 22 дня назад

    Once you've settled on a racquet you like, you should have (at least) two of them, so you have one to play with while your other one is being restrung. We don't all have on-site stringers doing a while-you-wait service (or a stringing machine)! Regarding shoe grip - mine were so grippy it made me fall over and break my wrist! Another point about shoes is that badminton shoe sizing seems to follow a law unto itself so you may need to go up a size or two from your "normal" shoe size - try before you buy! Another thing for your bag are plasters, just in case (bag?), and a pen to sign those autographs! 🙂

    Thanks for another great video!

    @lchan1977 21 день назад

    i think if you are playing competitively, the racquet and string will play a role where it will give you that extra 10-20% more. But if you are playing recreationally, it wont matter. Give an ex-state/national player a 25 quid racket and they will still beat those mid/advance players who join their municipal tournaments using 150+ quid racquet.

    I’m still using my Proace sweetsport 1000, Proace widebody 55 rackets and Yonex carbonex 21sp rackets. Strung at 28lbs, BG68 strings, changed grips whenever grip felt worn (about 10 games) Rackets are kept well in a decent racket bag. Shoes are very important to me, I would rather spend on shoes than ok rackets. Footwork, technique and game IQ wins the game, not the most expensive racket in the world.

      One of my coaches told me that one of the best racquets he'd ever played with cost him £20! It's all about balance and feel, not price!

    Have you guys ever tried 3 in 1 shuttles?

    So I think Badminton Shoes are definitively one of the most important things on the court also because of the injury prevention
