It is important to understand, that the movement for clear smash are very similar. That is the reason, why i made this tutorial for both shots, because they both follow the same principals. Actually there are only two realls small differences between smash and clear:
1) With a good technique you don’t need full power, to hit a clear from one baseline to the other so the movement is a little slower than the movement of a powersmash
2) The shots have a differen point of impact. A smash should fly downwards, so you should hit it front of you, so the stringing points downwards in the moment of impact. For a clear you hit the shuttle above or slightly in front of your head, depending on how high or flat you want to play the clear.
