Shuttlecocks look identical in a tube and play completely differently on court. Kumpoo's Australian line-up spans social nylon tubes to match-grade goose feathers, and choosing the right one saves real money across a season. Here is every tube in the current range, mapped to the player it suits — plus the feather-versus-nylon fundamentals, which we cover more broadly in the shuttlecock comparison guide.
The nylon line: training and social play
S-107 (6 pack, $19.99)
The entry tube and the club-night workhorse. A synthetic skirt that survives mis-hits, frame scrapes and concrete-free but enthusiastic floors. One tube comfortably covers a social session. Buy it for: practice drills, backyard-to-hall beginners, and anyone who loses more shuttles than points.
S-300 II (6 pack, $29.99)
The step-up nylon: a more feather-like flight and better cork consistency, aimed at improvers who want practice conditions closer to match play. If your club plays matches on feathers, training with the S-300 II narrows the timing gap without match-grade cost. Buy it for: regular improvers and school squads.
B.Duck nylon ($29.99)
The collaboration shuttle — same practical nylon category, dressed in C.B.Duck charm. It plays the social role and makes a genuinely fun gift for younger players; pair it with our junior starter guide thinking.
The feather line: matches and serious training
No. 2 Premium Duck Feather (12 pack, $29.99)
Duck feathers at a duck-honest price. Slightly firmer feel and shorter life than goose, but excellent for club matches and high-volume training where burning through premium tubes would sting. Buy it for: club competition on a budget — the best cost-per-match in the feather range. See the 12-pack here.
LanTing Selected Goose Feather (12 pack, $29.99)
Goose feathers at the duck price point — goose generally offers better durability and a more consistent flight arc. The LanTing Selected is the value pick for pennant players who burn tubes weekly.
RED 3 Feather (12 pack, $39.99)
The match-grade flagship of the range: selected feathers, consistent speed and flight, built for fixtures where a shuttle must survive and fly true for a full game. Buy it for: competition nights and anyone who has started noticing the difference a good shuttle makes. RED 3 is here.
