This is a training shuttlecock intended to be used by beginners and professionals. What sets this shuttle apart from existing shuttles is its adjustability. The user can change the size of the tail feathers, which in turn changes the flight and speed of the shuttlecock. Allowing players to focus on different aspects of their game. Existing feathered shuttlecocks fly great but are often destroyed after several points.  Rendering them useless.  This shuttle is made from strong and light Rip Stop Nylon.  Allowing each shuttle to have a longer life span, without sacrificing playability.
