RSL Tourney No. 2
The RSL Tourney No. 2 sits directly below the No. 1 in RSL's performance spectrum. It provides high-grade goose feathers and stable flight dynamics at a slightly lower price point, making it one of the most widely used shuttles for regional competitions, county leagues, and serious club sessions.
Speed 77 Designation
The 77 indicates a medium-slow speed. It is tuned for warmer hall temperatures (roughly 21°C to 27°C / 70°F to 80°F) or standard sea-level play. It provides moderate pace with tight control, ensuring players don't over-hit baseline clears in warm conditions.
Key Specifications & Characteristics
-
Feather Grade: Quality natural goose feathers. They are selected with slightly wider color or thickness tolerances than the No. 1, but still offer strong structural integrity.
-
Base Cork: Composite natural cork core that offers a solid, crisp response off the racket face and uniform pop during power hits.
-
Flight Performance: High rotational stability and precise trajectory control on drops, nets, and baseline clears.
-
Durability: Slightly lower stem thickness compared to No. 1, leading to a small drop in smash-resistance under maximum power, but still far outlasts entry-level or synthetic options.
Ideal Use Case The RSL Tourney No. 2 (Speed 77) is best for competitive club games and league matches played in indoor halls with moderate-to-warm ambient temperatures, where players want the authentic touch and flight of a tournament-grade shuttle without paying Tier-1 prices.
