    I want to go feather now since we are advancing to an intermediate level of play now (a buddy of mine and me) ...

    Now concerning price and durability which are the 2 biggest factors for us, which would you guys recommend?

    I heard the Yonex Aerosensa 30 would be the best but unfortunately it is either impossible to find here(Europe) or super expensive... like 30+ euros a can

    I now found the RSL Tourney No.1 in a store for like 20 euros.... how is that one or which other one should i get?


    Thanks for any feedback guys :rolleyes:

    How many tubs do you want to buy? PM me and I can probably get you a good price on RSL Classic Tourneys. Which are the best RSL make and better than Toruney No.1's. Currently using them as well, instead of my previous Aeroplane Black and Yany Yang 300B's. That tells you about how good they are.

    The better the quality of the shuttle, the better the durability will be irrespective of your level of play. But let us know how you get on with the RSL's either way :)

    I can recommend the Babolat Tour (with the red sticker). It costs 20 euros a can (12 birds) here in Austria.

    I didn't believe the seller when he said they're very durable, but it's true. I've played a few games with one, and then I've been doing a lot of drills (including in my apartment, where it keeps hitting against all possible things), and it's still pretty much intact.

    RSL Classic Tourney is the superior shuttle. Value I guess depends on how much you can get each for, but imo the Classics are worth the extra.

    I see. Thats probably the best. But I have another for RSL NO.1 Tourney is it the best out of the No. Series? because I sued No.4 before and I didn't like it.

    Yes, RSL Toruney No.1 is the best of the numbered (no.1, no.2, no.3 etc) shuttles (say second best). RSL CLassic is the best shuttle from RSL.

    I love Aeroplane black label. Has a heavy weight feel and flies awesome and is durable. They are 2x as expensive, but can atleast last an entire game!
