    • Kanabun

      Kanabun (Experience:11-20 years) I don't think it's that good

      YONEX STANDARD was temporarily out of stock, so I bought this instead. After using it, my impression is that it's less durable than STANDARD and poor value for money. The feathers have weight and resilience, but instead of distance proportional to that weight like YONEX NEW OFFICIAL or TOURNAMENT, the feel was as if the feathers just carried on their own. It seems to have a track record of being used at big tournaments, but honestly, STANDARD was better.

    • TOMO

      TOMO (Experience:6-10 years)

      It's relatively low-priced and high quality, so it's great value for money. The shuttle feels slightly light, but that's not a problem. It's more than enough for practice matches and such.

    • Middle school students

      Middle School Student (Experience:2-3 years) The quality has dropped compared to before

      It used to be very durable and reasonably priced, but the current SNOWPEAK
      breaks after a few smashes
      , and on top of that the price went up, so I can't recommend it now.
      I wish it would go back to the way it was, when it was durable and reasonably priced.
      If you're going to buy this shuttle, I think buying STANDARD 2
      is the better deal.

    • gbem

      gbem (Experience:More than 20 years) It used to be good

      It used to be durable and economical, but lately the feathers on these shuttles break like crazy. The quality seems to have dropped drastically. I think the flight has changed too. If cost is a priority for you, I'd be careful about buying these. The old product was really durable, and the flight felt great. If you've used them in the past, you're better off forgetting your old impression.

      age My impressions of the SNOWPEAK SP404

      A set of 12 for under 500 yen, so I think it's a product with excellent value for money. Despite the low price, you can enjoy real badminton. It's a stable shuttle that bounces off the racket properly, so I think you can have fun using it.

      Shin An official federation match shuttle.

      This is an official match shuttle approved by the Badminton World Federation. Control, feel, consistency, durability, whichever you look at, it is flawless. The price seems a bit high, but considering how well it plays, I think it is actually on the cheap side.

      Sho Getting attention from many pro players.

      Many Japanese pro players use this shuttle, and lots of top players around the world trust it completely. There is little variation, and the feel and control are all consistent. It is also durable, so there is no problem even if you keep hitting it in intense practice.
