Tennis shoes?

why not Air Jordan?

go approach a gang that play badminton daily and ask them.

Yes

Those are good racket for budget

Play badminton but buy tennis shoe. I think ur understanding on sports is limited.

You wont go wrong with

ASICS Court Control FF3
Mizuno Fortius 11 Quick

I thought newbies use Mr DIY rackets, rm30 jer

just follow what victor axelsen uses. cant go wrong

Yonex IOI City Mall for branded.

If want staff with good recommendations then go Sam Trading Co at Metro Point Kajang. Apa brand from budget to helang price pun ada.

Perfly... decathlon je...

Beli yg paling mahal....

Mmg padu

Vsmash

Newbies pakai kojak racket & carlton shoes

Buy titleist ball
Pro V1

You are really a newbie.
You don't use a tennis shoes for badminton/squash .

This shoes is specifically designed for tennis game movement and grip.

You need a indoor court shoes.

With your budget you can look at asics court control ff3.
If not gel-court hunter 3 is another option.
But if you want good and slightly more economical, you can consider gel rocket 11, some pro squash players wear this.


On buying racket, you can check out Racquet World in Pertama Complex.

Hock Eng Bangi. Possibly the best sports shop in KV. Huge array of badminton rackets/ shoes and of good deals

This.

Jangan2 3 month down the road masuk store room awaiting to sent to museum.

I drink kopi in the morning also terpancut from my mouth when I read this

Newbie into sports are like

Wear running shoes or futsal shoes or basketball shoes play squash I've seen a lot with newbies.

If they are really serious into the sports, then must invest into sports specific shoes.

You can ask LZJ on Victor 🤭

Newbie buy all equipment then play 1-2 time give up kiao those eq keep in closet collect dust/mold

Please advice where to get this mizuno shoes

I've been a ASICS rocket gel user for the past 13 years.
I had 6 pairs of rocket gel before this. Current pair is Rocket Gel 10.
Would like to have a second pair of squash shoes since I'm playing like 2 to 3 times per week now. Want to feel how good is mizuno

Partly because my fav badminton player is wearing this brand. Okugara san. Hgggghn.

mr diy because i am not lee chong wei.

I bought this and been using for 6 months, still solid. Play 3-4 times every week. Its a looker compare with other asics incourt shoes



Racquets i rekomen just buy any even balance 4u racquet, from there you can get familiar with shot varieties and find your own spot to go either head heavy, light or stay on even balance racquet.

Also i suggest to join any social badminton games, can find in fb or rovo app. Expand your badminton buddy circle yo.

Asics color for their shoes is topkek to be honest

Just borrow the spare racket from that guy.

Every badminton group got that guy.

nice what
striking.

i usually go for sport shoes with striking colours

you like which type of colours?

Different ppl different taste mah. Striking not my taste. Mah.

lel, just go badminton court there buy, would not go wrong, just say u are newbie and budget,

so i guess you will go for normal colours. either black or white with no flourecent yellow , etc etc.

my previous Rocket Gel were this colours.
i'm sure you see also will feel pening.

do you have the basic footwork and technique to play or not first?
don't like be like kung fu player doing some kind of swordsman technique.. buy what expensive shit also no use..
and why the tennis shoes for badminton?

Lol i got nimbus je. Not fan of court game.

Pertama complex after buy yumcha with rempit

yes this.

those who just want to play leisurely will not learn basics first
seen many of such people in squash court.
The moment they masuk into the court, just wack the ball and ball flying everywhere. no control.

it's just like you want to learn driving. never learn the basic and essentials first.
Don't know how to walk, but want to run.


must learn basics first
- how to hold the racket grip, learn the angle.
- learn the forehand and backhand swing/arm movement
- learn body positions.
- learn footwork
- then learn forehand strokes, then backhand strokes
etc etc

This post has been edited by skyblu3: Nov 16 2023, 10:31 AM

your nimbus which colour?
mine is this colour, also for the Lite-Show glowing safety features since i always run at night time

For shoe just buy yonex 65z3 RM400+ very good enough lor.

For newbie better buy cheaper racket lar. Apacs, felet, chepaer version yonex or victor. Bang racket with partner common among beginner player. U buy expensive racket then accidently bang with partner racket u crybaby. Unless u play single.

But since u afford racket for budget RM1000, just buy Thruster Ryuga 2, u will automatic play like LZJ. Lulz!

asics racket the best and economical

you can choose cheap but quality shoes to high end quality

Nimbus 23. This one.



This post has been edited by kcchong2000: Nov 16 2023, 09:47 AM

If want Yonex, go to Vsmash at Kuchai Lama/Menara Symphony/IOI City Mall.

If want others, can try AJ at Bandar Puteri Puchong.

good stuff nimbus 23.
had this also before nimbus 24.

the new nimbus look really weird. like mashmellow. LOL.

Wah....the design quite topkek. Lol

Dont buy tennis shoe for badminton. Not to say kenot use, but better buy proper indoor shoe for badminton.
Since u got good bajet and prefer asics, can check out gel blast ff 3, court control ff 3, blade ff, gel tactic 12 or netburner ballistic ff mt 3(high cut).

just curious, whats the different between 100-200+ racket vs those 500-1k racket?

but reviews say very comfy. plush and soft

Lol let me koyakkan my nimbus first. And then I baru masuk Nike Pegasus zoom 40. Lol

I just ditch Brooks Ghost as the shoe the bad is if the tiles is wet I can anytime do guile summersault kick (exaggerated but it has no grip on wet surface)

** All my shoes is for supination or under pronation.

Expensive racket better material and good technology in it.

Well if u already a pro player, using cheapo RM80 racket also still can win.

U give Datuk LCW use RM30 Mr.DIY racket vs ktard with RM1000 racket, sure kelong also kena hantam Datuk LCW.

should be weight i think.....last time i buy those cheapskate racket then compare with more expensive 1 can feel the weight is totally different but it was looonnngg time ago lar

but racket got so expensive already?? already left badminton long time already...last i buy 100++ also feel very expensive...now need 500++...

walau eh....the racket use by Lin Dan or Lee Chong Wei before isit??

Exactly, there's a lot to learn about a sport other than hitting back and forth. gonna know the basics, not just hit for the sake of hitting the bird / ball
Buy good equipment doesn't equal to good player. Anybody with skills / training can easily tapau a noob with cheap equipment.

Asics gel rocket 10 also good enough la. Rm 250. Yeah newbie use cheap racket better. If you play doubles, always clash rackets with your partner. Some high end rackets can break quite easily though. Start low, maybe rm 100+ to 200+ can settle la. Bruh I'm using 2nd hand li ning bought from the badminton shop where I usually play at. RM 80. For a year plus dy still going strong even winning players with RM 500++ rackets... expensive rackets don't mean shit when you can't play.


The technology used to produce the racket, the material and all..
Manufacturers claimed it would produce higher smash speeds, better control etc etc.. but to us regular club / social players.. it wouldn't make a difference la.

wawasan2200

tesco got

if you are a regular player and a good technical player. you can tell the difference.

if not, to you a racket is just a racket.

how is Nike compare to Asics?

the only Nike shoes i like is my futsal shoes.
never like Nike.

Good racket feel more "lively" probably due to material used.
Cheap racket feel more "dull".
You can actually feel the good racket like integrate with you 人劍合一.

as told by kevinc, our terror badminton player Coffeedude can even win you with just using a Tefal 26cm frying pan.

from lee chong wei brother shop

anyway

I used RM100++ racquet (10% pre-stretched, 28lbs) also dapat 2nd place in Double's.

In a serious note, if you are an experienced player, you'll definitely feel the difference.

There are a few differences:
1. The tension of the string that the racket can hold is lower in a cheaper racket of the same brand. Some brands are cheaper and can still hold higher tension.
2. The stability of the racket when you swing it or hitting a shuttlecock will be different.
3. Depends on the racket series(head light, balance or heavy), some higher end rackets are harder for beginner to use.

not really
expensive rackets, and professional use rackets have 3U.
expensive is more to material, R&D, tests, prototypes, design, engineering, etc.

this channel is nice.
he interviews and find out what professional players use, string tension, string type, set up type, etc.

To add in the shape also gives a different feeling (i.e.: the conventional oval and isometric/square-spot). Personally I prefer isometric type.

you mean Lim Chong Wei?

since we're talking about badminton rackets..
anybody got any nice recommendations for slightly head heavy rackets?
budget RM 250 max not as rich as TS here. lol

dx-888h can buy from tesco

For beginner yes asics gel rocket 10 or 11 good as starter. But since TS afford and list expensive shoe and high bajet, so just rekemen him high end lulz!
But ya different people different choice, some newbie who afford they straight away get high end shoe and racket. For some they get cheaper shoe and racket. Nextime after gain good skill and play better then can buy better racket and shoe.

Most important in badminton is correct technique. If u can win by just play setting the shuttle for opponent and less smash, cheapo racket can already. If u a good powerful smasher, good racket give better power.
If me i depend on opponent. If opponent i can makan without power play, i use my old RM80 carbonex racket also can. But if meet powerful player and need do lot of powerful smash then i use good racket.
But now i dont really go for high end racket liao. I only use bajet racket yonex Astrox 9. Bought during promotion few years back RM150. My badminton group mostly use high end also i can win them most of time.
Many people thought using expensive racket they immediately can play as good as Lindan. Lulz!

Either Pudu Kompleks or Pertama Kompleks.

yeah but not all newbies can use the high end racket.. as in fully utilize it. Later might even injure himself / herself if get the wrong equipment.
like tennis shoes for badminton..

Just budget your shoes to RM200 and racket RM120 is decent enough for newbie. You won't be able to pick drop shots if you do not master your steps in godlike shoes or smash faster than LZJ with a godlike racket.

Investing so much for a sport that may break your back and cause cardiac arrest is a bad idea.

Lulz!

I want try use 30cm stainless steel wok.

I have this unused isometric to be given away free
But no takers

kevincCoffeedude
please advice.

Only tat need alot of adjustment if using tat cheapo racket. For smashing not so good but to play setting and bully opponent can.

No worry, they both sepu...pu...

Competitive sports zaman kegemilangan. Now jadi pengkritik sukan negara.

This one heavy enough for you?

Astrox 9 gooding but sadly no more production. Lulz!
If lucky u can find shop tat still keep astrox 9 stock, grab it.
If in yonex, slightly head heavy to fully head heavy look around under astrox series.
Astrox 77 play or game.

that's why when i start coaching newbies
i will always tell them that the first two weeks of training will be very very very boring.

first and second week, i will train them without the squash ball.
training with just the racket.
learn how to hold and grip the racket.
learn about body positioning when hitting a forehand and backhand
learn how position the racket before swinging a forehand / backhand
etc etc

Unless they get head light to even balance spec then ok.
If they straight away using full head heavy racket then can get injured.

yeah. Rocket Gel is the best choice.
Now is Rocket Gel 11.

if want more economical, Asics upcourt is good enough also.

Tats right. Not as easy as they thought. Even swing also have right technique. Anyone can hit shuttle just that not in right technique and stance.
Basic badminton stance also need to learn 1st before start hitting shuttle.

since TS nub, definitely spend more on shoes first

since its important gear, and besides after awhile you will just keep changing racket anyway until the suitable one fixed on hand

next would be on training kot. or if you get the gist after some time, practice but watch youtube on the proper technique and try applying

nowadays i play mostly on placing and setting to beat opponent.
to save me from having some muscle sore the next day.

just placing and setting make them move from corner to corner, front to back, and wear out their stamina. LOL.

i believe you can beat most of the badminton players here using this.

your badmninston buddies call you the God of Badminton for a reason. and I can see why

Lotus tesco

Same as me. Less playing smash now a day. Placing and setting good enough to win. Make them move around the court.

yes, bought wide feet one. ayam fat ass foot, using this shoe very less prone to ankle sprain.

i'm left handed, so usually right shoe always kena makan more, but still solid.

worth every penny.

I want to let go my arcsaber 11 game. Balance racquet though. Newly bought and use once.

used arcsaber 11 shud b ~250. can source from mudah, fb marketplace or through community
to me there's no diff in court shoes, be it badminton/squash/tennis. tech gimmicks for S&M
is good not knowing it's tennis shoes after all, more importantly it suits the feet and geting well along with it

actually stopped reading after this statement from a self claimed newbie. very ambitious lol
"rackets：need 2-3 rackets maybe get each for 3u 4u and 5u"

oh and shop depends which brand you prefer, i heard some say the nice and big shop like hock eng

puchong one i go AJ, but see luck
they big guys are like vsmash
and got 1 in PJ forgot d, need go up floor one. the shop is nice, counter lady also cute

Baru masuk during sales. Not yet try. Will inform when I try it yo..
