I have seen many deception shot before. I have seen Peter Gade backhand fake to forehand low cross before, which is in this video as well. But what freak me out is that he can do it with forhand fake to backhand cross as well. When he was about to show that, I was like “no way!” That’s impossible in mine mind. The timing must be perfect, the wrist must be very flexible (possibly he need to loosen up the grip a lot). Well, he did it, and it’s reproducable.. Enjoy.

Today, I was browsing around on internet, looking for some things to write about. Why not searching for “Tony Gunawan” then? So I google it, and found many articles about him, but not thing interesting, until I go to WikiPedia. I found that he has his website which he still update it regularly. In the news section on TonyGunawan.net, it’s basically his blog that still get updated very recently. Check it out.

Also I would like to post this link to and article that I like. It’s written shortly after the World Championships 2005 in Anahiem.

Recently, he changed his racket, but I cannot make out of the picture or video what model it is. I can only guess that it’s Yonex Armortec 900 Power based on the color of it. If anybody know what it is, I would appreciate if you can leave me a comment about it. Previously, he used Muscle Power 100 (my favorite), and Nanospeed 9000 Type S.

I was listening to the podcast Net@net when they mentioned this website called FaceBall.org. Basically, it’s a game playing in your office, hitting people with the beach ball. The crux to it is that you have to take a picture of the ball hitting someone face and post it on Flickr.

That kind of get me thinking. What if we take picture of birdie hitting someone during the game. Sometime the birdie hit at one’s body at, um.., not-all-too-welcome spot. Or he try to defense but his arm all jam up? Or he makes faces that’s funny when he gets hit. I know this is going to be tough to do. But just a thought.
