Starts Wednesday, 16:00 British Summer Time.

Last year the comp lasted 3 months, so to keep it shorter this year, there will be 8 rounds, each with a 4-day time limit. (A ninth tie-breaker round will be applied if necessary.)

Stamp It. Stomp It. (SISI) is an online kendama competition with the aim of you really showing off your own style and having the freedom to incorporate your favourite tricks.

PRIZES
- A Royal SuperNatural (Thanks Royal Kendama!)
- A KendamaUSA Kaizen (Thanks Void!)
- The fun of taking part ( <-- All entrants will win this prize. ;) )
The winner chooses their prize, with the remaining prize going to the person voted as the winner of "Best Combo". We may add a third prize (for the runner-up) if enough people enter.

RULES
* Read ALL the rules!
* Perform the tricks for that round in one combo, in any order you like.
* Finish the video by saying "SISI" and showing your kendama to the camera. (Hold STILL for at least 1 second, please.)
* Any transitions between tricks are allowed. Extra tricks are allowed too! You are encouraged to Stamp your own style in the combo as you Stomp It.
* Any recognisable variation of a trick (e.g. grip type) unless specified otherwise, will be accepted.
* Post your video links right here on this thread! (Upload your clip wherever you like - YT, Vimeo, JTV, Instagram, etc - but post the link to your video here.)
* (From Round 2 onwards) When you post your entry, vote for your favourite combo from the previous round. (You can't vote for yourself.)
* Head-mount footage is not okay - we need to see your face in the clip!
* The combo must end with a spiked tama, in any grip.
* No trick (balance) lengths will be timed, however we do expect some degree of control.
* Entries must be completed & posted here before the deadline.
* Video quality has to be adequate, and filmed in landscape or square. NOT portrait.
* Tricks must remain in frame, although we will have some discretion.
* Standard competition sized, wooden kendamas only. (Sorry, no oversizes like LBB, Musou, Prime, Pop, etc etc. Trying to keep the comp on a level playing field.)
* No cuts or editing (including slow-mo) during your combos.

Notes
-Each round will be approximately 4 days long.
-One entry per person round. But if your entry is rejected, you may re-enter if you are still before the deadline.
-Any person in the competition has the right to dispute a trick.
-Referee ( @The Void ) has the final say on any decision.
-If only one player posts a video in a round, second place will go to the person that posted first in the previous round

Going to miss a round due to work/holiday/exploding computer? Don't worry, you can miss one round of the competition, however you must post the missed round along with the video for the following week. That's a one late entry second chance!
:)

After each round the players will vote for their favourite; the top voted video of each round will go into the final where one last vote on will happen to find the overall winner.

Best Combo voting rules:
# (From Round 2 onwards) Any videos posted will not be accepted until AFTER that contestant has voted.
# you can only vote if you're still in the competition or voting in the final.
# you can only vote for one person - not for yourself!
# your vote should be based on skill, creativity or originality
# you do not have to give a reason for your vote unless asked to by the referee
# Late entries can not be voted for
# The round winner will be announced at deadline -  no late votes.
# if only 2 people are in the competition the referee will vote
# your vote should be posted alongside your next video entry.

Good luck!

Oh, and it's great that SISI in on again! :)

I'm having hardly any time to click lately, as it shows on the endless combo. I want to do this one, but I also want to do something more than just landing the 2 tricks.

I'm on it.

@BenPycroft24 Quality looks okay here[nb]Slight autofocus issue, but still all visible.[/nb]. (Perhaps you were looking just after uploading, and YT hadn't yet encoded the higher-res versions?)

Trick line and "SISI" are fine, but seems like you cut the clip just before you showed us the kendama. Looks like an Ozora? Please confirm?
Title: Re: Stamp It Stomp It - SISI 2

@BKA my bad for not showing the kendama.

It's a maple ozora Ken x gt stodd mod tama.

@Dice126 Accepted! Watch out for drifting out of frame in future. It wasn't bad enough to reject this time, but be aware! (FYI If you've filmed in landscape, you can press the bottom left overlay button on IG to post in landscape too, which would help with this.)

That's two entries, so we have an actual competition on our hands!

@rhys_goes_peace @John @fiddletriks @DanieLambert @shalafi @jakub.zahumensky @Jak Good to hear.

Jakub, hope you can find an internet cafe or similar to pop into on your hols (if so inclined) to keep you in. With the "one missed round" rule, you might only have to post once in the week...

I will be keeping off the grid unless absolutely necessary :) I need some peace and quiet. But there is a chance that the timing might just work. And if it doesn't, well... worse things can happen :)

I'm in, but I'm not solid with Dead Body. And of course any combo that involves any dead body. But I'll try. I will be at the Swiss Juggling Convention for the weekend and maybe I can do it (and get some footage).

Because we all have our own style and there's an infinite way to perform the same trick, I'd say it was okay to have the same combo. May effect who people vote for though, if they think it lacked originality...

3) Eelco (hella style, definitely a fun one to try)
2) Paul (Dead body, UFO to Lunar, whaaaat!)

1) Rhys (I'm a sucker for a good flow combo)

Definitely the three I liked the most and would personally nudge (of course, everyone else was great too!)

@BKA I did a variation of the drop and pop, which I am officially naming the Drop, Pop 'n' Swap! (Unless the BKA already has a name for it, of course, or can think of a better one.) I hope this fits into a variation of the trick.

Hello, just wanted to check on the round 2 trick, can the 1 turn airplane be from coming out of the swirl?
Good question! Hmmmm. Thinking about it, you have to do something as the "any catch". That *can be* a 1-T Aero, but then you'd need to do
*another* 1-T Aeroplane to have done "all three tricks".

@johndmc Reverse Swirl accepted as a recognisable version of Swirl. This DnP was good, so Accepted, and a vote for Rhys counted.

@rhys_goes_peace Sorry for the delay. Currently viewing on a small screen, and have some doubt about your exit from Swirl. There seems to be a pause, rather than continual motion. I've asked for a second opinion, but until that comes through, you're currently, *provisionally* Rejected. Be prepared to potentially have another shot at it.
Your DnP variant was fine. (Void & Donald have "Swap n Pop" in their books, btw, but it's different to yours.)

Late feedback for round one: This is a tough one (one in general and one like "for a round one"). I was at a juggling convention in Frick, AG, Switzerland, and had some time. But I only managed a combo three times. And of course without the camera running. This is the first time I don't even pass round one ... :(

@LarsVegas Sorry about that. After deciding to make SIS a bit shorter this year, it meant cutting down on the simplest early rounds. Perhaps 2 balance tricks in R1 was the wrong choice. But thanks for giving it a go, and well done for landing a combo, even if off camera. If nothing else, hopefully this year's SISI at least pushed you to getting a new sequence.

You could argue that your 2nd Swirl exits to a catch, but that is with what might be called a "string manouevre". We picked Rhys up on having a pause which interrupted the flow of the Swirl, so sorry, but we have to Reject you also. :-(

Here I was naively thinking... I'll get a simple version quickly on camera and then I go for a nicer one.
45 minutes later, I did got the simpler version, so my juggles are a lot worse than I remember, probably because I don't practice much.

@KenSan You seem to have failed to have read the previous few posts, and therefore not learned from Jak's mistake. Because of this, we are mindful to Reject this entry.

However, irrespective of that, there is no Spike in your video, so Rejected anyway. (Not accepting the Scoop Spike as a Spike variant, as it's a tama grip trick, and Spike is a ken grip trick - too different to be a "variant".) Sorry.

@DanieLambert Nice idea to "Around" this round. You made us wonder about using the free hand to enter a position. Since there's no actual definition of what a "combo" is, and since you didn't miss any tricks in the process, we're taking that as "your stamp" on this one. Accepted, and the vote for Matt G is counted.

@s070s Because you were late with your R3 entry, that means you forfeited your vote for the R2 combos.

Your late R3 entry is now Accepted.

Your R4 entry is on time, so that means you are eligible to vote for one of the R3 entries listed in http://kendama.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,3079.msg29702.html#msg29702 .

@Matt Goody Bit fuzzy - both video and audio! Actually, had to wear headphones and turn volume up to 11 to hear you say "sisi".  :(
However, we could, and the clip's good, so Accepted. Vote for Rhys logged.


By the way, great work from everyone so far!

RULES

So...
Some kind of ken grip, not a tama grip.
It can be an ATW variant, but it should be more like "Around The World" than any other well-known trick. Around USA would be Around USA, not Around The World. Rob's example in the video has extra movements (centrifuges), but it doesn't have "extra tricks" as such, so we could call it "Centrifuge The World", which is more like a variant of ATW than anything else.

If you're in doubt about what you're planning would be allowed, here's our advice: Stay as close to ATW as you can. - Maybe add flair before, between or after the compulsory tricks.

Hopefully that's clear, but, given the above clarification, we'll try to make allowances in judging.

Okay, this is clearly confusing, since you've done Around Europe there, which isn't Around The World.
So, *UPDATE* any vaguely recognisable version of Around The World will be accepted.

Thanks @BKA

Can You clarify:

Body catch - is that strictly from the torso or from any part of the body, such as an arm?

Also whirlwind to any catch, does this mean you don't need to include a spike? That's the only whirlwind I know.

Cheers
Title: Re: Stamp It Stomp It - SISI 2
Post by: BKA on 26 September, 2017, 22:37:06
Body Bounce - any part of the body, but must be a bounce (giving impetus), and not, say, a roll down, or a glance off.

Whirlwinds do not have to end on a Spike. Catch the tama on any part of the ken.

Post by: shalafi on 26 September, 2017, 22:39:47
Mmm, I may try round 6, then retry round 5... I have bad consistency on 2 tricks, so it'll be quite a challenge. On round 5 I had no consistency on 1 trick, so I guess round 6 is slightly easier for me.

@kendamatty Is your UFO pushing the horizontality limit? After a few watches, we decided to allow it.

Your Whirlwind is from Underbird, not Bat (you're clearly touching the sarado), and we wondered about allowing it, since the positional change from Underbird to Base Cup is a little under 360°. However, the Whirlwind does a full 360° with respect to your hand, and since we said "to any catch", we can interpret that as you entering the catch position after the Whirlwind.

So, overall, Accepted, and a vote for Jak logged.

I take that back, my attempts at round 6 have been largely unsuccessful.

I want to point out that I believe the progression of difficulty on the rounds up to 6 has been really well measured. Slowly but steadily increasing difficulty. I know it is very hard to do it right, so hats off to you @BKA well done!

Thanks.
It's tough to get the balance right, somewhere between "easy" and "nuts!", and aiming at "a bit of a challenge", each round. Obviously there will be strong players who get through the first rounds easily, but then again, it's important to try to make players who are less experienced, or less strong, feel like they have a chance of staying in.
We had all 8 rounds' tricks drawn up before the start, but were prepared to change the level if it seemed necessary. (So far it hasn't.) Considered "not bothering" with the voting this time, but decided that was a big part of the character of SISI, so we kept it in. Glad that we did - kudos to Jak for coming up with the concept last year.

Hopefully you'll still think the same when you see rounds 7 & 8 (& the tiebreaker, if needed)!

Good luck if you're still trying.

To be fair I know how difficult it is to manage, as well as time consuming. You've done a great job (so far ;)) and it hasn't gone unnoticed that you've even kept the format of the video examples so similar to last years; I've take that as a compliment really that you felt you haven't had to change much, so thank you.

Gunslinger Spike
2-Turn Jumping Stick
3-Juggle Anything**
Axe
Trap*
Arm stall***
* a) Not in combination with another compulsory. e.g. "Gunslinger Spike Trap" doesn't count for both moves - It would be okay as your Trap, but you'd have to do another Gunslinger Spike as well. b) The "trapping part" of the trick should land at same time as the "other part" of the trick.
** That's a juggle of (exactly) 3 catches.
*** Ken or Tama. Must not be held in place by string tension

I managed to get a lot better on stab late grip change and landed a couple of lunar somersaults, not enough, but it kept me clicking and trying new things, so that's great.

Good fun. Thanks for organizing it and good luck to the remaining 3

Well, that turned out to be harder than I expected. All the individual elements I'm okay with but putting them together was hard work. 
Anyways, hope it's okay...

I'd like my vote to go to @Matt Goody

Excellent - exactly what we wanted! :-)

Meanwhile, @Jak  , all your individual elements we're okay with. ;) Accepted, and a vote for Matt G logged.

@Matt Goody @kendamatty Sorry, forgot to specify: "balanced on any part of the arm, but not using hand, wrist or elbow." (Since wrist & elbow could easily be used for grip, and we want a balance.)

Tip: More Knees.

Thanks @BKA

would it count if i trapped the tama on my arm to begin the balance and then allow it to stall freely afterwards? I realise that this wouldn't towards the "trap" part of this combo.

Thanks.

@Matt Goody @kendamatty Hmmmmm! Cause for thought.
If you'd asked this before anyone had posted, we might have allowed it as part of the "stamp". However, a "stall" is usually seen as "a catch directly into a balance", and since Jak has already posted his attempt which includes a "caught stall", it would perhaps be unfair to him to allow the remaining competitors to do a combo which includes an easier-entry stall.

So we're going to say no, it must be a proper "caught" stall. Sorry, it's not what you wanted to hear, but we try to apply rules consistently, and that's our call here. (And, even if Jak says "I don't mind", we're going to stick to that call.)

Good luck.

So, after a long weekend in Barcelona, I finally managed to relax and play some kendama! Here's my round 7 entry:

My round 6 vote goes to @Jak

@kendamatty Had initial concerns about the timing of the trap, but the more we watched it, the more it seemed okay.
So, all ship shape and Bristol fashion, Accepted! Vote for Jak logged.

Round 7 deadline has expired.

Round 8 details to come soon...
Title: Re: Stamp It Stomp It - SISI 2
Post by: BKA on 04 October, 2017, 16:27:18
Round 7 is over, and we have two players through to the final (?), Round 8: @Jak and @kendamatty. However, with his Late Lifeline still intact, @Matt Goody can rejoin in Round 8 if he also posts a valid entry for Round 7.

The vote for Round 6 is tied with 1 vote each for Matt G and Jak. Void decides: "Again, it's hard to pick, but I liked the deliberate pace, and the Bat>FH Aeroplane start, so I'm giving it to Matt."
Congratulations Matt G, you will go into the final round of Best Combo voting. http://kendama.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,3079.msg29816.html#msg29816

Round 8
Deadline: Sunday October 8th, 16:00 BST

Wingwalker
Barrel Roll**
Somersault*
Stabbed Earth Turn
Helicopter
Hanging Lighthouse
Yank (Spike or Aeroplane)
*With the ken balanced, somersault 360° back to the same balance. Must be base-cup-over-spike rotation.
** Minimum 360°. From Lunar or Dead Body, back to where it came from.
http://juggling.tv/16668
...and just because a couple of the demos went slightly out of frame, that doesn't mean you're allowed to!

Final Round Rules:
As usual, but, if no-one posts a combo with all 7 tricks, then the next best combo will win. (e.g. 6 out of 7, or 5 out of 7....) No preference will be given to any tricks. Post your best entry. However, if you post an incomplete entry, but then record one with a greater number of tricks done, then you can post that as well.

If there is still a tie after Round 8, there will be one final tiebreaker round[nb]...of death[/nb].

Since there are only 2 entries on time for Round 7, there will/can be no voting, so Void will choose the winner. And since there's no need to wait for that...
"Again, hella hard to split the two, but I'll go with Jak for starting with the Opposite Axe."
Congratulations Jak, you will go into the final round of Best Combo voting again. http://kendama.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,3079.msg29824.html#msg29824

Wow, that was tough! I've only reached the Yank twice, and both times weren't successful. I suppose there isn't much to do now except await judgement (and eagerly refresh the page awaiting Jak's successful yank spike!!)

I'm getting like 4, I was thinking I'd hopefully get 5 but 6 will be complete luck I think. Great job, dude. I'll keep trying though...

@kendamatty :
Hanging Lighthouse Yep
Somersault Yep
Helicopter Yep
Stabbed Earth Turn - Nope. You did a Stab, and then an Earth Turn, but (after some head-scratching frame-by-frame playback) the Earth Turn itself was Spiked (below horizontal), not Stabbed (above horizontal).
Wingwalker Yep
Barrel Roll Yep

So, that's a 5/7 run Acknowledged and Accepted. You can re-submit a 6/7 or 7/7 attempt if you wish.

Does that keep you interested, @Jak and @Matt Goody ?  ;D

Post by: Matt Goody on 05 October, 2017, 23:31:15
Great job @kendamatty !!
And thanks for the vote @BKA , made my day yesterday :D

Really want to have a go at this... but think I could probably only manage 3 or 4. I'm still, however, stuck on round 7 :(

It seems each trick takes it in turns to be the one I stumble on! If it's not the double j, it's the juggle or the axe 😂

I'm not giving up yet, but happy to watch you two fight to the death!

Good luck!
Title: Re: Stamp It Stomp It - SISI 2
Post by: Jak on 06 October, 2017, 22:00:54
Only 4 for me this evening. Achey back not helping, probably a result of yesterday's attempt, haha.

Does helicopter have to be in a specific grip? (ie. Is a ken grip version allowed?) It's a trick I've never really done (or seen) before...

I changed my lunar barrel roll to a dead body roll and I'm getting the 4 more consistently, but I've not had the luck of landing a yank or whatever to make it up to 5.

I'll have another session to try and get it but big respect to Matty on his 5 (and being so close to a 6/7!), wouldn't be ashamed coming second after that.

Another go tomorrow...

@Jak Yes, Helicopter is from and to Secret Grip. There's probably a ken grip version which is a fair bit easier, so no to that.

Just to let you know there'll be no last-minute post from me. Sadly not had enough chance to film this weekend. Really glad I made it into to the final few contestants. I will just have to hope I get some votes in the best combo instead, but well done everyone involved!

I though that @Jak  was going to swoop in with a last minute video, so I just recorded an attempt at 6/7. (That Yank keeps evading me!)

http://juggling.tv/16671

I'll await judgement...

Let's see if @Matt Goody comes in with a last minute video?...

Thanks to @The Void & @Dimensions for filming tricks, and thanks to everyone who entered!

Pleased that the drop-out rate was very roughly a smooth line. Maybe 4 days was a bit tight but a month felt like the right length for the competition. Great work by (especially) the last 3, to keep the comp alive down to the wire.

I'll point out that the tied ones should share the higher position, not the lower, after 4th, there's 4 people at 5th, then a 9th.
I know, I'm nitpicking
