Strength Pro Training Tip, Forehand cross court slice.

Strength Pro's tip of the day, we are aiming to cover all the shots Strength Pro training rackets can be used to enhance your game. Overhead shots are always difficult when you add extra weight such as a heavier racket. Its always an important point to remember when using Strength Pro rackets overhead is not to over swing(swinging to hard) its better to sacrifice power for technique rather than the other way round. The power will come when you use your normal badminton racket.


The forehand slice is a shot mainly used in singles, the purpose is to deceive your opponent into covering the straight shot to then slice the shuttle cross court at the very last moment sending the shuttle in the opposite direction.


A basic practice would be to use a single shuttle feed from a static position in the forehand corner slicing the shuttle to land cross courts as near to the tram and service line. Its important to have a quick racket through the shot to emphasize the disguise on the shuttle, using the strength Pro training racket for 8-10 shuttles per set then switching to your normal racket will promote racket head speed therefore generating more pace and deception on the shot.
