The shuttlecock, called a jianzi in the Chinese game and also known in English as a 'Chinese hacky sack' or 'kinja', typically has four feathers fixed into a rubber sole or plastic discs. Some handmade jianzis make use of a washer or a coin with a hole in the centre.
During play, various parts of the body, but not the hands, are used to keep the shuttlecock from touching the ground. It is primarily balanced and propelled upwards using parts of the leg, especially the feet. Skilled players may employ powerful and spectacular overhead kicks

  • Are U in the US, if u are I guess u can source from china , cos they are best suited for self control and free style,

    As what i use are those my friends who bought friom different part of the world like china and vietnam and I modify them and recycle those parts that are still reusable example jianzi has three parts upper that is the feather, lowest that is the base, and the middle that the plastic spring. So I repair them to suit my style of play. Buy the china made ones,

  • Hey I think this sport is amazing and I was wondering where you get your jianzis. I don't want a crappy American version, but more an authentic, Chinese one that will allow me to enjoy the game more. Can you please point me in the right direction to buy one such as a website or source? Thank you very much.

  • I'm a beginner for jianzi but I don't take classes. My relatives from China gave me two Jianzi shuttlecocks as gifts to play with. I don't have anyone who play Jianzi. So I play by myself, I could at least do 4 kicks to myself. Sometimes I kick it and it flew out of place. Its kinda boring to play by myself but this is America...

  • @xporter01 Why it broke easily

  • Yes I am located in the U.S. I just can't find a good site that sells them... If you buy them online, is there a specific place you get them? I have also been trying to make my own but just need to locate a business or place where I can buy or find some duck or goose feathers...

  • Practice and passion my friend, Create your style and confidence, Thanks for watching.
