As the AirBadminton game takes place in outdoor environment, the presence of wind and gusts will impact the flight performance of the AirShuttle. Much of the power in a badminton shot comes from the string. Thus, it is important to know how string tension can affect the AirBadminton game.
 
AirBadminton has been designed to be played with the same traditional rackets. However, based on the outdoor elements involved during the game it is recommended that players use a lower tension (8-9kg / 17.5-20lbs) when playing AirBadminton.
Badminton World Federation (BWF) officiated the launch of the new outdoor game, AirBadminton, in May 2019. By using same rackets but with new outdoor shuttlecock, the AirShuttle, it creates opportunities for people of to play badminton on hard, grass and sand surfaces in parks, gardens, streets, playgrounds and beaches around the world.
 
AS-AIRSHUTTLE II changes the materials of the shuttle skirt to nylon and improves the durability significantly. Additionally, the new neon color provides sharper visibility in the outdoor environment.
