About it
A shuttlecock, or shuttle, is used in badminton instead of a ball. It has a rounded cork base with a skirt of 16 feathers, or a plastic skirt. The skirt drags on the air, so the shuttle always turns to fly cork first and slows down quickly.
Tap it and it is hit up: it flips over cork first and flies up spinning, turns over at the top and floats back down cork first, spinning slower as it falls. Even so, a hard smash can send a shuttle off the racket faster than 400 kilometers (250 miles) an hour.
