1.15 meters not 1.5meters. 😂😂😂😂

[@Jigsaw2533]

Haha yeah crazy mistake to make he even says 1.5 meters and later he says 1.15

[@watchman835]

I often hide the Badminton shuttle when the other is about to win. I just put hide it in my bag and leave.

[@widowmakergaming415]

😂😂

[@BadmintionJourney]

Its happy to see you i was wsiting for your video

[@AylexBadmintonAcademy]

Thanks for watching

[@khairul1577]

Hi Alex, are you currently still using your Astrox 77 pro ?

[@Omsip123]

Rule 1 AND Rule 6 together doesn’t make sense to me. Either it is 1.15 or below the waist. 1.15 already prevents from downward swing since the net is at 155/154. Bringing back the waist rule defeats the purpose of rule 1, sine very small players whose waist is below 1.15 would have to sever lower.

[@chandut027]

This might help Kids to get into the routine of serving below waist, else they might need change their technique once they grow up.

[@alanko4110]

the waist rule was for event that without the apparatus to check 1.15m

[@yasirmehmood8065]

Like always nice humour 😂

[@eeshaanchintamani9254]

hey aylex, love your videos, keep going. NGL i still dont understand how you manage both piano and badminton i am an intermediate badminton player too

[@AylexBadmintonAcademy]

We have other channels too :)

[@JLneonhug]

Question, one forward fluid motion or one fuild stroke. I see alot of players wind back, hold for a second then push forward which is insanely annoying. I'm a fast server/swinger so if I start doing that it'll probably be classed as cheating ha.

[@ongkimchoon7383]

You can wind back but not hold after that. It must follow with a continuous forward stroke. This is the start of service. You can turn your wrist during the forward motion for a flick, turn for sideway direction, slice to create spin, drive the service all done under the 1.15m height rule. No sudden stop during forward motion.

[@xyz_piyush.]

You are my fav player in badminton and my inspiration also love from India ❤❤

[@triumvirn]

I cant find any reference to being disallowed to hide the shuttle. Where can I find that?

[@waqashaider3258]

Hi I have a question if you could help, please. Can you look away while you are serving? I see some people do it, and the receiver can’t figure out if the server is ready or not because they were looking away while serving. I can’t seem to find this information anywhere else. Thanks!

[@ongkimchoon7383]

Yes, you also can suddenly raise yourself on toes to look taller but service still under the 1.15m height rule. Your duty as a receiver is to look at the shuttle and nothing else.

[@davidroshan77]

In doubles, can we serve from outside the box, I e. Standing on the extreme right or left side outside box to create an angle

[@ongkimchoon7383]

Yes, this is an old position method using the drive base on forehand serve. Done correctly, it forces the opponent to return in an awkward position. It also opens up your court side completely to be defended by your partner alone.

[@Jason-qs1eh]

There’s no waist rule 1.15 is the only rule?

[@PentButler]

Can you hold the shuttle by the cork when serving?

[@mohrezshaikh4091]

nope

[@randy98.]

You have to at least hit the cork. When you hit the feathers, it is also a fault

[@ongkimchoon7383]

Yes, no fault at all so long when you strike the shuttle it is the cork.

[@amudhanbakthavathsalu5308]

yeah do a thorogh review before posting.. 1.5 . .i was shocked.

[@rithirongk]

Key change is combination of 1.15m and below the waist.

[@AxC_7]

If serve lands on the line is it considered in?

[@alanko4110]

yes

[@nandaramesh]

Axelson had advantage with old rule. New rule is disadvantage to talk player. It was not clearly stated. Also does anyone know how long can a server take after getting into ready stance before hitting the shuttle? Rule book if found only says reasonable time. But what is considered unreasonable?

[@JLneonhug]

Subjective. Ethically, it's no pause. Tactically, there's incidences where server waits 2-4 seconds in the ready position before a serve.

[@nandaramesh]

Thank you. I typically wait for a second or 2. But I feel they should make some rules. In sports, you can't hold someone over ethics. Even with poor sportsmanship you can criticize a player but it's not a fault. @@JLneonhug

[@ongkimchoon7383]

The rule book say receiver must get ready to receive serve but does not say server must serve once he/she sees receiver is ready. There is much debate over this, and no single answer address it. It is easier for receiver to be ready. The server has to watch where he/she stands (avoid shoe on-line), position shuttle and racket, steady himself/herself then commence service, all this while breathing heavily after a long rally. So, while it was good for the server, many would use the opportunity to delay serve. Could it be because of big price money? Before Super Series do we see many doing such antics?

[@prbir8906]

In doubles, Service from the side boxes are legal or not 🤔 If it's legal, tell how to receive it 🙏

[@ongkimchoon7383]

It is legal. It was an old method using the forehand drive serve. If you are very good in your backhand drive, flick, or even smash, you return to the far corner as they have open up their court to be defended by only one player.

[@illumi1011]

bro, longitude are "vertical" lines while latitude are horizontal lines. you messed up twice, 1st with 1.15m...

[@ongkimchoon7383]

There is no advantage for taller players be it Victor Axelsen or NBA basketball players. It is still 1.15m measured from the floor.

[@Wynisnyge]

So the spin serve is legal 😂

[@randy98.]

they banned the spin serve

[@ongkimchoon7383]

Yes, it is legal so long the strike started from the cork by the racket not pre-spinning the shuttle than serve.

[@amudhanbakthavathsalu5308]

below the waist rule does not apply when 1.15 applies..it does not make sense.. at all. so if a person only is about 5 feet .. they can still do it just at 1.15 ..they dont have go below waist..

[@alanko4110]

what if the player was short?

[@amudhanbakthavathsalu5308]

@@alanko4110 name one player shorter than 5 feet. i already mentioned about 5 feet..

[@amudhanbakthavathsalu5308]

those shorter players play in para olympics..not in regular category

[@mdmithon-ug8lk]

[@user-yd9ug2vp7z]

Bro hi

[@Walz_1]

Bro forgot to call it the bird, he called it shuttle... Unsubscribing

[@barrydinh]

Shuttlecock bro :))))

[@kbabujoseph]

😂😂😂

[@nicafaustinoVC]

excellent reminders about valid 🏸 serves. thank you!! in our club, we have a couple of forehand servers, which have been accused of illegal serving by the opposition. can you illustrate a few more badminton forehand illegal serves? would change in speed of the back swing to the forward swing mean it is an illegal serve?

[@ongkimchoon7383]

If the back motion of racket head was deliberately slow and forward was normal, it can be regarded as a fault as there was deception, but the rule book does not have a clear description on that particular action and is left to the Umpires, who likely would keep silent as he/she has no explanation if he calls a fault.
