These coaches for A long time now have been Teaching to Jump n land on Both feet! It only works for Beginners players or Players who seemed Planted on the court everytime and ONLY start to move when the OPPONENT hits! (Kind of late.) Use split legs( Alternate legs- & TRAIN both legs; not ONLY the dominant.

@@bradparmar4728 I think the side-by-side split step is good for beginners as a basis (to learn the split step) and the second step is to learn the side split step left/right/front & back. Bec like he said you only use the side-by-side split step in defense.
@jankowalski669111 ай бұрын
Very interesting video. I have noticed that myself that split step varies a lot depending from a player. Wider split step is more defensive and higher is more offensive. Tai Tzu Ying for a example jumps a bit higher because she does directional split steps all the time. So I think that when she is in the air slightly longer she can set the direction better. I think having a proper timing of the split step is making a huge difference. I love watching Okuhara an Yamaguchi because they are so small but cover the court so well. Also they have great technique to get the shuttle back from deep corners :)

Super slow motion footage is fantastic! Just like professional racket skills, the split step is so natural at the elite level be so difficult to teach in small sections. The flow from ready, approach, hitting, reset, then ready (again in a longer rally) is beautiful at high level badminton. Thanks for this re-evaluation. As others have mentioned, a look at doubles would be interesting. I also will look at animal reactions to see if they use a preparatory movement.

Very good tutorial on foot work, more important than anything else, as mastering this makes you get early and effortlessly to the shuttle. I've been practicing this for years and very hard to implement, as it is also tied with how well you can anticipate or read opponents shots. Just a tip: when the shuttle is high in back court, position your feet parallel to the net. When shuttle is in front low to the net, position your feet more perpendicular to the net with racket foot in front.

Simply two take aways: 1) Alternate Foot planting timing- Offesive shots( more Time available), Defensive shots( lesser time available, so Do more reaching) 2) Push off the hills (strong Quads+ Glutes are also involved) to Generate more power or Stay with Toe ( strong calfs) pushing as A quick recovery.

@mobime668210 ай бұрын
Question: In step one, not only is it that one foot touches first but it seems to be the non racket leg - as per your clips. Is that always the case or just a coincidence? I’ve been learning split step similar to this by slowing down clips. It never made sense to me the way it is traditionally taught and how you can magically make a directional split step without more details. Your insight into corrections takes me one step further to improving. Tomorrow I play so will try for sure.
@tobiaswadenka843510 ай бұрын
Well spotted and no this is no coincidence, in most cases it is the non racket leg as this is also the leg that does the quick correction step and by landing with it first the body weight shifts automatically to the dominant leg and you are free with the non dominant leg again to do the correction step. You will only find very few exceptions from that. Keep it up and kind regards 😊🔥
@TPToE11 ай бұрын
Would I be right in thinking that the players in your example clips are all landing with their non-dominant foot first (all right-handers, so landing on their left foot)?
@tobiaswadenka843511 ай бұрын
Yes good observation and you will see that with all players. Usually the non dominant foot is the one, that you want to correct first when you have a wrong position. In my front court tutorial I also showed some examples for the correction steps and you will also see there, that my left foot is the one, that moves first

I have a habit of having my right foot in front (very noticeable ) of left foot when I’m splitting. So it is almost always never both foot lands at the same time . This is even the case when I’m fully in defence position. Most players they land both foot at the same time in parallel. So they can push off either side.
