Wow, Li Ho, this is nuts! I can just about get Gunslinger Small Bird, never even tried hitting Gunslinger Earth Turn. Should be a fun challenge!

Hi guys, maybe you didn't see the video that [user]Li Ho Cheung[/user] provided?

Do it exactly as he does it in the video and you're all good, can't be more specific than that. :)

This is insanely difficult. But still Li Ho Cheung does it, so it is possible. Hats off to you! :)

I love gunslingers but this is a bit too much, it'll make me practice some new tricks thou.

Hi [user]Kendamamitch[/user],
If you were viewing on a mobile device, maybe you  couldn't see the embedded video that Li Ho Cheung provided. We've just added the link alone into the first post (and Kev gave it too), so hopefully you're all clear now!

Nice one, [user]Void[/user]! then perhaps you can tell me how the devil one holds the ken for the second part of the trick (earth turn & gunslinger)?  ???

[user]the milky oolong[/user] It seems that Cheung[nb]Is it "Li Ho" = family name, "Cheung" = given name? Sorry if I got that wrong, [user]Li Ho Cheung[/user]...?[/nb] does it straight from the standard ken grip. I have to admit I can't manage to get the 'sling from there. After catching the first 'sling in ken grip, I do a little "drop" grip change so that the tama is resting against my palm, index finger under small cup, and middle finger has "swivelled down" to be under the big cup. From there I can 'sling just fine. Might not be accepted as good in this comp though....

Hey [user]Li Ho[/user],

Just so you don't think your challenge is being ignored: I have tried and tried with this and it's still way too difficult. Hours of practise mean I've learned

Gunslinger Small Bird
Gunslinger Bird
Gunslinger Earth Turn

But the doubles, reverses and the Gunslinger from Bird back to Bird are just not letting me in. Still, I learned some incredible tricks from you, sorry I couldn't crack this nut!

Time's Up!
COMPETITION CLOSED!
But it remains as a personal challenge, so feel free to keep trying, folks!

Thanks, [user]Li Ho Cheung[/user], but it looks like you're way ahead of everyone else on Gunslingers! :)

BKA will take control of the next KCC, with a slight twist to the rules. Number 29 will be in mid-August.
