Understanding the Materials Used in Our Premium Badminton Shuttlecock

Have you ever wondered what are badminton shuttlecocks made of? You may be able to know how different it is in comparison to the others when you play with a Dmantis shuttlecock. That’s why Dmantis shuttlecocks are crafted with specialty materials designed to help you play better on the badminton court. Let’s take a look and find out what makes these shuttlecocks so outstanding.

Why are high-end shuttlecocks made of duck feathers?

Have you ever closely examined a shuttlecock and wondered just what those feathers are made of? Premium shuttlecocks, such as those from Dmantis, don’t use duck feathers for no reason. The duck feathers are lightweight, that allows the badminton shuttlecock to fly in the air at a rapid pace. The shape and feel of duck feathers make them stay in sorts even when they are hit hard. So you can rest assured that when you are playing with the Dmantis, the duck feathers are assisting you in playing your best.

The role of good cork in making shuttlecocks last longer.

If you tore apart a shuttlecock, you would have the little nub of cork in the middle. Cork is crucial as it helps the shuttlecock remain sturdy and stable. The quality cork employed by Dmantis Shuttlecocks can stand strong hits without getting broke or deformed. That is, you can play longer without having to replace a shuttlecock. And cork helps maintain shuttlecock balance in the air, which makes it better to play with. So the next time you’re hitting around a Dmantis feather shuttlecock, be sure to thank the cork that is helping your game.

How shuttlecocks are delicately constructed for optimal performance.

Ever thought about how badminton shuttlecock is made? It requires a lot of care to make a shuttlecock. Every feather is hand-selected and trimmed so that they are all the same size and shape. The feathers are then glued to the cork base in a special way to allow it to fly better. Dmantis spares no efforts to make every badminton racket shuttlecock to a high standard of quality. So, when you play with a Dmantis shuttlecock, you can be confident it’s handcrafted with care to deliver superior performance.

The discussion on which material is best for shuttlecocks.

It's a common debate: what is the best material for shuttlecocks? For example, some players prefer hen feathers on shuttlecocks because the feathers are softer and limp, it’s easier to control. Some prefer duck feathers, which fly fast and are strong. Some players also believe that synthetic shuttlecocks are the better choice because they’re more consistent and they last longer. We believe, at Dmantis, that using duck feathers and good cork in our shuttlecocks provides you with the best speed, strength, and uniformity. After all, it all ends up as a question of which shuttlecock you prefer and how you play.
