Landed my first lunar flip!!!! It felt sooooooo good!

[user]Misterwhang[/user], great stuff!

Today I am quite happy with:

(clean) Swing Bird>(Earth Turn)Over the Valley>Turn In
Gunslinger>Small Bird>Lighthouse>Trade Spike

Regular Berlin kendama meets sure are raising the bar!

Today I'm having my first official shot at the Dan table with [user]The Void[/user] at BJC2014. 

Wish me luck! 

[Confound]

Good luck!! And today I landed a pull up, quad ken flip. And I landed my first big cup juggle. Feeling pretty stoked!

I've been pretty quiet on all the toy boards lately. I've been busy trying to learn a thing or two. Today I had a session of pure progress. I feel like I'm getting through a blockage I had after mastering the basics.

Hey thanks for the luck [user]Confound[/user], sorry didn't see this until now! It worked anyway - got my Pre-Dan which is great AND managed enough Moshi Kame to attempt 1st Dan at the BKO next month too. Very happy about that

As for you feeling stoked about your tricks, you should be! Looks like it was a good KD day for you too.

In the last day I've gotten these firsts: downspike, downspike earth, small bird in, bird over Valley, whirlwind spike. I couldn't be more pleased.

Yesterday I did Bird and Turn in 3 times in a row. Today I did Bat -> Big cup -> Bat at the first try (to my own surprise)

[user]Shalafi[/user]: sounds like you're getting a real feel for your cup rim tricks - just to push things on a bit, go for Monkey's Chair or (Swing) Monkey's Chair while you're feeling nimble!

Enjoying the sun in the park yesterday, landed:

Gunslinger>Fast Hand Lighthouse (pretty neat)
Swing to Candle>Candle Balance>Spike
">">Fast Hand Lighthouse

after learning Gunslinger>Small Bird I am getting pretty close to Gunslinger>Slip Grip Special and Gunslinger>Clifftop. Well, sun is shining, maybe today will be the day!

[shalafi]

Today I did the around trip in one go, I think for the first time: Around Village, Japan, World, Europe. Quite happy

@the milky oolong I was also trying swing to bird and earth turn to bird, but I'm nowhere close to consistent with them. I will try Monkey Chair, you can also do Everest from there

[SC_Kendama]

Today I landed One turn lunar, lunar flip, flip in, double jumping stick. I also made a One Turn Stilt>Flip In, and a Double Juggle. It's not even 11 O'clock here yet

I discovered a new Pinwheel variation tonight. Not telling you what it is yet, in case it ends up in Outlink or something...

[Dadooh]

Today I landed the most spectacular trick I ever done. It deserves a share:

[The Void]

!!!
Your reaction is priceless. Killer trick, dude!

[Kev]

Amazing [user]Dadooh[/user]!

Awesome in the true sense.

Well done!
