Okay, we think it's a Facebook visibility thing, as we can see it with a FB-logged-in browser, but not without. However Alex has kindly sent them through to us to share on the forum with you. Enjoy!

Nice one Alex! As if the T8 isn't hard enough to play with already, you had to make a tougher challenge!

[KendAlex]

thanks Void for the upload in here,
this kendama is a real hard challenge yes.
the T-8 is a normal size compare to this one ahaha.

if you remember i already played a micro one before.


but only spiking was possible, that already is hard though.

with this KROM mini kendama it is possible to do all the cups as well.
i also landed a one turn earoplane too

this keychain kendama is available on www.kendama.dk

happy new year
