smash defense versus Knight Trainer":

The revolutionary badminton Knight Trainer allows
players to learn, improve and perfect badminton skills
far faster than in the past, and frees coaches to
concentrate on teaching and coaching.

Learn: Dramatically accelerate the beginner's
learning curve for all ages with the Knight Trainer.
Simulate any shot consistently and repeatedly,
allowing beginners to concentrate on coordination and
technique with the shuttle arriving in the same spot,
shot after shot.

Coaches don't have to double as shot feeders, but can
do what is most important - observe their students,
coach and teach.

Improve: Players can improve accuracy,
consistency and technique with a uniform feed of any
shot. Coaches can objectively measure improvement,
using the consistency of the Knight Trainer to
measure players' success percentages for various shots.

Train against smashes, drives, fast drops, slow drops,
net shots, clears, short serves, long serves, smash
returns and more, all fed consistently, shot after
shot.

Perfect: Elite players can perfect every shot
in their repertoire, and expand that repertoire. Push
players' reflexes with drives and smashes at a rate of
more than 2 per second, or set a slower frequency to
allow time for players to prepare and execute a wide
range of shots. Set up two machines in series in order
to feed opposite shots - for example, a clear to the
forehand followed seconds later by a smash to the
backhand, each shot consistently repeated while the
player perfects the tightness and placement of the
returns.

The versatile Knight Trainer is transportable, easy to
store, and can feed both feather and nylon
shuttlecocks, whether new or used. It is sold with 3
feeding tubes that can hold 50 shuttles each. Feeding
tubes are fast and easy to switch.

Coaches can manually vary shots vertically or
horizontally while the player trains.

Players can train solo with the Knight Trainer. If a
court is available, but a sparring partner is not,
then the Knight Trainer is the solution. The
motivated player working alone can practice all
possible shots.

A remote control allows the player or coach to start
and pause firing from anywhere on the court, and to
adjust velocity and frequency.

Settings

Height and angle: The firing point can be set anywhere
between 54" and 82". An optional stand will allow a
firing point at 36"

At any height the shot angle can easily be varied to
allow a range of shots from sharply angled smashes to
soaring clears or serves.

Firing frequency can be set at any rate between 2.5
shuttlecocks per second and 1 shuttlecock per 16
seconds. At its maximum frequency, the Knight Trainer
will challenge the fastest reflexes. Slowed down to
the desired rate, the Knight Trainer allows time for
players to set up and mentally prepare for the next
shot, or even to mix in shadow play and court movement
routines.

Velocity can vary from the most delicate of net shots
to hard smashes.

Calibrations: All settings can be noted and quickly
set up again at other times.

Working together: Two machines can be connected so as
to feed alternately, at the desired interval, each
machine set up for a different shot.
