Meet the evolution of badminton training. It installs in seconds and is stored just as quickly. The Shadow Trainer uses random lights on a court outline to direct players to move on the corresponding points of the real court, swinging as if hitting a shuttlecock, and then returning to their base position for the next light signal. The Shadow Trainer is an amazingly effective way to improve footwork, speed, reflexes and fitness for badminton at all levels.
Footwork wins badminton rallies, but shadow drills called out by a coach are hard to make truly random, timed and repeatable. The Shadow Trainer stands at the net and lights up court positions in random sequence. Players move to the matching spot on the real court, swing as if hitting the shuttle, and recover to base for the next signal.
SurfaceID worked with Black Knight on the design of the Shadow Trainer. With 8 speed levels, 3 levels of randomization, 2 signal modes and 320 possible settings, it adapts from beginners to advanced players, and two units can run on one court, one facing each side.
