Hi Yong,

This is not a shot that you need to play.  You are better off waiting for the ball to drop to your shoulder height and smashing it.

It becomes a lot more risky if you are jumping at the same time as trying to smash.

Slow to Fast Progression

It's important to practice your shots slowly to get the correct technique. That will lead you to being able to hit the ball faster. You do need to practice these faster shots in training before using them in a match.
