Hehe... of course I had picked the best five serves in a row, but it took me about 15 mins before I could get it.
^ Tks! I must give credit to that thread on contact point during serve which improved my serves since I switched to the 2 o'clock position of the stringbed. There're also other minor things that helped. Check out my thread. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php/132378-Video-Backhand-short-serve
Hey, you guys are not going to believe it but I found the slow motion feature in the camera app already installed in the phone. And it's pretty impressive recording at real time but then you set a play back time of 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 playback. I've taken some recordings of my kids and shown them their overhead action from different angles. Then explained the imperfections in their technique. Awesome !
Seriously, I only played with the camera app today wondering what all the icons were (hadn't played with it before). *face palm* Mine is 4.3
Thanks for the S3 vid Visor. And nice serves btw. I recently learned a similar serving technique except I push my hands further out in front of me to steady them. On a tangent, that club looks so familiar. I think I was there last summer.... And thanks for the tip Cheung. Hopefully when I get my new phone (ordered one this week) I can post a comparison (though my serves will not be nearly as nice). I'll try to make it slow mo for you to see. Game on.
^ Tks. Yeah, I think I'm serving way below my 1st rib... I can afford to push my hands out further and consequently up a bit. That's Khas in Richmond / Vancouver btw... 18 courts. You couldn't have been here summer 2012 as it was just opened Jan 2013 this yr.
[MENTION=7]Cheung[/MENTION] Check out Coach's Eye, specifically for Note 3. Looks very nifty with slow mo forward/backward analysis via flywheel control. And on sale for only $1 till Nov 12. For that price, I think I'll get it even without a Note 3. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.techsmith.apps.coachseye
Coming back to this thread, I found that the original camera app within the Note 3 can record in slow motion mode. It is a bit inflexible because you can only play back at the one speed. But it's been good enough for me. 1/4 speed is good.
Coach's eye has been getting some bad reviews lately with ads interrupting it. An alternative to try is ubersense.
