It’s important to understand that this benefit does not exist unless you are very fast to move in after your opponent’s block. If you are slow to move forwards, then your opponent will gain the advantage instead.
Smash shot usually is performed if shuttle trajectory comes high, that would be after drop shot.]]> 2017-02-09 11:28:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jkrowling_jm/8aur7mswov23/wish/152734601 jkrowling_jm https://padlet.com/jkrowling_jm/8aur7mswov23/wish/152736793 The smash shot is the most attacking shot in badminton, and it is the hardest shot to return]]> 2017-02-09 11:40:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jkrowling_jm/8aur7mswov23/wish/152736793
