I've spoke to a few people about kendamas that are allowed to be used. @mreasyguy said most ozoras are 100% allowed for competition?
This will be my first BKO so I'm super excited haha!

Or you could go to the link provided, http://kendama.co.uk/bko2016.html , and read the Rules section, which clearly links to http://kendama.co.uk/approved.html . :) Ozoras okay.
Looking forwards to having you there.

After all the audio editing I did on last year's Adv vid, and getting a total of zero responses about it - good or bad - I frankly CBA. frubble wricket crutter baikwhorkh And it was a string tweak. : :-\
If you don't want to BUY MY BOOKS 😉, then why not ask your local library to order them in, and read them for free? That would help too. Cheers!

Nice!

I like the change in the intermediate, allows for some very quick runs if practiced enough and some good clutch points.  8)

Advanced trick list and video are out!
Please...
- Read ALL the rules and details on http://kendama.co.uk/bko2016.html
- Read all the clarifications in the video.
- Use the Slomo button in JTV's Flash player, or use JTV's Download buttons, to play the video on your computer at slow/frame-by-frame speed if needed
... before asking questions on tricks.

If in doubt, tricks must be performed as in the video.

You have 3 months. Use them wisely! :D

Interesting trick selection. Thinker Village particularly keeps the weirdness of the list up :)

A few tricks in there that I want to try or to get better at, independently of me going to the BKO or not.

I liked the music thou :-P

Just watched the trick lists and there are a fair few I've never seen before, so I shall have fun trying them out over the next few months!

Shalafi's Hanging 1 turn aero has me stumbling at the moment from his IKO trick list. I've been close but not close enough!


3rd place @ BKO 2016 Adv. Division. :-)

Dimensions

Liking the list! Looks fun!

A nice mix once again!

Some of those go against all kinds of "normal" mind, like flat juggle?! that just made my hand confused relearning a juggle, same goes for the bird no spin lighthouse (bird fast-hand lighthouse?)Love it!

Well time to drill these tricks in!
