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!

Ok then, let's make the next one also easy.

From backhand base cup -> orbit to penguin base cup.

Trick Rules
- You cannot reply to your own trick.
- You must wait to re-enter until 5 other people have done a combo after you set one.
- You must wait to have your attempt verified by the previous setter before setting the next step.
- Use any competition-sized kendama.
- You should start the new transition from the finish position of the previous trick. i.e. You can just place the kendama into position. You don't have to do the previous move, but you can if you want to. But if so remember to...
- Hold the start and finish positions of the combo still for a couple of seconds please.
Video Rules (To help for a nicer compilation video)
- Make sure you have adequate lighting. Please film in daylight if possible. Clips usually look very poor in artificial light.
- Please film in Landscape, not Portrait, not Square.
Peter W., zdenc, Dimensions, The Void & shalafi must sit out of this round.
Good luck everyone!

Great stuff!

I don't think it was the Mugen on this occasion: more the masses of stuff Void's stashed in the pockets of his cargo pants in order to aid the soft landing, kind of like a weighted camera boom effect. Voluminous and Voidacious!  ;D

EDIT: Oops, this was in reply to Void's Lighthouse > Bird trick, in case you're all thinking 'what?'. Landed on the wrong page and thought this was the current stand. Sorry!

How come nobody has tried this yet? I thought of it as an easy trick to keep the endless combo flowing... :-(

From backhand ken grip (over the head, as in the photo).

@KenSan I'm going to step in here (I'm sure @shalafi will agree with me), but... rejected
The trick requirement begins from a Backhand Base cup
Just like in the picture here:


It must be above eye level then orbit down to a penguin below eye level
Keep practicing, I'm sure you can do it

Yes, Dimensions is right. You have to start from the backhand position.

Your can place the ball there, no need to land the initial position.

Okay no problem. Until now I had thought a penguin was a chocolate biscuit that I used to have in my lunchbox as a kid too.
If I get a chance I may have another try but for now I'll blow the video away to save further embarrassment  ???
