Regarding this, how can I make my shuttlecock last longer?
Steaming Method:
- To steam your shuttlecocks.
- Place the shuttles into the tube that you want to use for next days play.
- As soon as you see steam coming out of the top end of the tube, take it off the steamer and put the end caps back on quickly to prevent the steam from escaping.
Also, how do you maintain shuttlecock? But before keeping the shuttlecock inside the tube it's must shake the tube with warm water for about 3-5 seconds so that the inner wall of the tube is wet. Then, finally, place the shuttlecock inside the tube and close both caps of the shuttlecock tube to keep the wet inside the tube.
Keeping this in view, how does a shuttlecock fly?
A shuttlecock flies with a pure drag trajectory. The cone of shuttlecock is formed by around sixteen overlapped feathers laced together by thin threads. The feathers of shuttlecock create much higher drag and cause the shuttlecock to decelerate more rapidly.
