Interrupt with a Captain Hook. I know you know what that is, so I don't understand what you don't understand...?

Aww, sorry. Should have read my own posts :)

That's really nicely done @the milky oolong and what I thought you meant. I've tried it a few times and got nowhere near :( but its definitely on my to do list!

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.

s070s, shalafi, The Void, Dimensons & the milky oolong must sit out of this round.
Good luck everyone!

Wow how does this even work. Ken somebody help me out with this? I want to give it a try :)

The Void

You saw the demo video, right?
This isn't a trick that flows for me, so I can't help. I managed it once, but uglily.
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!

Cliffdama

Haha didn't saw the video, now i did and it's hard to trow it back the other way around. Practicing this atm :) the catch isn't that hard actually

@Dimensions 

BKA endless combo 142 - juggling videos hosted @ Juggling.tv

How's this? It was incredibly challenging, and I agree with earlier comments that it feels rather unnatural to reverse the flow, but here was my attempt!

Thanks for the nudge @the milky oolong , I completely forgot how good the endless combo was for learning new tricks (albeit not as clean as yours!)

the milky oolong

That's good, @kendamatty, nice finish too! Glad it gave you a bit of a challenge, I mean, that's the name of the game, right?

Cheers Milky!

Okay...

for EC #143
lighthouse > fast hand back hand stall (still for 3 seconds).

(Back hand stall = stall the ball on the back of your hand i.e between knuckles and wrist, all whilst holding the ken with the same hand).

The Void

So... Throw tama & ken, catch ken, catch ball on back of hand (and balance it) ?
(Assuming you don't mean catch the whole Lighthouse on the back of the hand.)

Something like this?

Realised I was a bit eager and probably didn't stay still for the full 3 seconds. I can refilm if I'm doing the trick correctly.
