Title: Kendama Records! You can do it how many times!?!?!?!
Post by: Dave on 03 November, 2011, 21:47:46
so ladies and gentlemen this will be a thread solely for the purpose of boasting who can do the most of what. i'll try and keep on top of it but i will modify this first post whenever a new record is set.

rules: (otherwise this could get silly)
-each record will be set for the repetition of ONE trick. so no made up combos. By one trick i mean you have to hold the ken/tama and perform said trick, then without readjusting complete the same trick again and again and again. (Edit: The "without readjusting" part isn't possible for some tricks, so we now distinguish between "Connected" and "Unconnected" runs.)
-Stay in frame the whole time. No speeding-up of the video.
-Balance tricks should be held still for 3 seconds.
-All standard BKA competition rules apply.
-Use a competition-sized kendama (https://kendama.co.uk/size.html). (No oversizes like Musou, Prime, etc)
-No POV clips please - we need to see the person who is performing the trick.
-Please try to film in good lighting. It's not very easy to judge if there's an error or infringement in a fuzzy video, and you all want us to believe you, right? Thanks!
-It would be nice if you filmed your trick just for the forum, but you don't have to. Old videos and videos filmed for other events or competitions ARE allowed, as long as they are posted here by the person performing the trick.
-Records are for forum members only. (Anyone is welcome to sign up though.) You must post the link yourself.

Moderators: @The Void @donald grant @shalafi @Dimensions

As per Peter's suggestion, we will LOCK tricks once someone has got to 100 (or more) in a row.

So, here we go:

For anyone of you who has problems with the numbers above 20: last time it has only been 22 ;-). 23 was a failure!

Dave!!!

Thank you for starting this thread. I feel very pleased, yet: Marc W. was my inspiration starting with a quite "private" challenge - as nobody followed so far - with the Earthturn trick.  Marc: go for it! Here comes the next level. I only say: 27 :-)

27 Earth Turns - juggling videos hosted @ Juggling.tv (http://juggling.tv/6950#id=http://juggling.tv/nuevo/econfig.php?key=0ecc1c3bdee598eadca3)

I tried to make an Around Tunbridge Wells afterwards (not part of the challenge), to honour Dave, yet, hm... guess where I failed. Exactly: at the first Earthturn...

And one last remark, please could we end a trick with something like "first to make 100", because otherwise I would need to count Voids 1500 Moshis tomorrow... ::)

Around the village! I told myself that I wouldn't stop until I got 10, and spent a little more time on this than I care to admit. That was probably the most satisfying sip of orange juice that I will ever have in my life.  (http://juggling.tv/6952#id=http://juggling.tv/nuevo/econfig.php?key=5df0e18cc9433bd7f27c%3Cbr%20/%3EAround%20the%20village%20x%2011%20-%20juggling%20videos%20hosted%20@%20Juggling.tv%5B/url)

Hmmm... I wonder..... do you think we should make this thread for records for Forum Members only?[nb]i.e. You must post a video of yourself.[/nb] That would maybe keep it more interesting & competitive between us. And of course, if Ricky or Mahoto-san want to sign-up to the forum they'd be most welcome. Or should it stay as a list of "absolute" records? What do people think?
Title: Re: You can do it how many times!?!?!?!
Post by: KendAlex on 29 December, 2011, 13:25:47
i never thought about that in the first place, but i get a lot of attention on my facebook and youtube of my records, of people that can do more hits and they gonna try to beat me, i think records are suppose to get broken, and i think it will pump up the skills of every player, to get the consistancy skills too.

For me it is no problem to make a member threat just for the Forum members, but i guess you get more and more members every week now.
this Kendama Forum is the only English forum in Europe and maybe in the rest of the world.

Tell me what you think?

(and eelco ask me to show my skills on this one, i hope he comes with a answer too)

QuoteHmmm... I wonder..... do you think we should make this thread for records for Forum Members only?[1] That would maybe keep it more interesting & competitive between us. And of course, if Ricky or Mahoto-san want to sign-up to the forum they'd be most welcome. Or should it stay as a list of "absolute" records? What do people think?
i never thought about that in the first place, but i get a lot of attention on my facebook and youtube of my records, of people that can do more hits and they gonna try to beat me, i think records are suppose to get broken, and i think it will pump up the skills of every player, to get the consistancy skills too.

For me it is no problem to make a member threat just for the Forum members, but i guess you get more and more members every week now.
this Kendama Forum is the only English forum in Europe and maybe in the rest of the world.

Tell me what you think?
Well, we do keep getting new members, but I'm surprised that it's only about 2 or 3 a week, and not many of them post much, if at all. If the records thread was members-only, it might encourage a few more people to sign up and post their records. But then again, maybe it's a bit silly to ignore the fact that non-member records exist.

Maybe we could track both. e.g.:
Earth Turns: 38 by KendAlex
[noembed]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IW7B_fyx7w[/noembed]

(Non-member record 43 by Mahoto-san http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alT_EzK-1Xw )

I'm probably leaning more towards making it members-only, but if there is strong feeling against it, then maybe not. Anyone else got an opinion?

Hmmm, I'm not really consistent enough to have a go at this record-breaking thing myself.  However, I figured Arthur might be better suited to it*, so got him to have a shot at Alex's Around Japan record...

Arthur Breaks A Record! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo7DjK3euGk#ws)


Yep - 34.  What's more, I can't see anyone else beating it this year!   :)

No, I'm not mad - after all, 2012 is meant to be the Year Of Kendama Consistency isn't it?

Actually, I only just noticed that when you throw the ball off the spike, you "pull back" to keep the hole stationary. I've always tended to spin it off - which I guess for long runs can cause a problem with string-twisting.

....so you just gave me a tip on how to beat you!  ;)
Title: Re: You can do it how many times!?!?!?!
Post by: KendAlex on 01 January, 2012, 14:22:02
Thanks, yeah it is.

I use that technik with all the around tricks, to keep the hole in front, and it helps a lot to keep the string straight.
it is always nice to see technics of difference people.
I can't wait to see your best shot again.

Thanks for the bonus Suicide 1-Turn Moon Landing!

Around Village and Around Prefecture records are yours.
Moshi + 3 balls record is yours, although re-reading Dave's original post, he wrote
Quoteno made up combos
Maybe we should keep this as a "pure kendama" record list?

But with regard to the Slip Grip Specials, we are certainly impressed with what you did, but unfortunately you didn't hold a single one of them still for the standard 3 seconds. That's a competition standard, so unfortunately, we can't give you that one, even though all of your catches looked solid. :(

I would say bens doesnt count seeing as the moshi's werent anywhere near actual moshikame speed.

My pleasure. That suicide moon landing was my trick of the day. I thought it would spice up my very repetitive video.

I do think it should be a kendama only contest, but that juggle and moshi kame thing was so silly I just had to try it.

I recorded another slip grip special video a few minutes ago with longer holds. It wasn't quite as good, but since I got it pretty quickly I thought I'd take it and run. I'll put it in this post when it finishes uploading.

And Mark, I was under the impression that moshi kame can go whatever speed you choose unless competition X specifies differently (which this one doesn't). But, I can't honestly say I'm proud enough of that "record" to fight for it if it gets questioned officially.

Because I can't beat any of the current records (80% skill 20% short attention span) I started a new one:

BATON TWIRL ENDURANCE

I'm laying down the very beatable score of 20 rotations because thats the best I did before my forearm started to ache too much.
The rules are:
1. The twirl must be at a decent speed
2. No touching - as soon as any part of your body e.g. hand, arm, face, teeth, touch either ken or ball its over.

I counted every time my hand came up and I counted 20 but I await verification.

Kendama Baton Twirl 20 rotations (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdYodgL99PA#ws)

The gauntlet is down!!!

Title: Re: You can do it how many times!?!?!?!
Post by: BKA on 21 February, 2012, 11:46:02
I think you're counting "1" as you start the trick, but that's before you've done a full rotation, so that should be "0", and we'd call that a total of 19.

We'll count "0" at the point where the ken is horizontal, and in front of your left shoulder (as seen in this video) for the first time. Up to that point we consider that you're still in the 'entry' to the trick.

Still, well done for setting a new record! :-)

@happygoat I was expecting myself to do something in the range of 10-20... time to go back practicing for me :)

Well, maybe with a Performer I can do more. The kendama looks big to me, it is a Performer, right?

Anyway, well done!

Well done, [user]happygoat[/user], except.... well this thread is only for a bit of fun, but we were firm with [user]benjugglin[/user], so it's only fair to hold you to the same standards:
Quote from: BKA on 19 January, 2012, 16:05:33...unfortunately you didn't hold a single one of them still for the standard 3 seconds. That's a competition standard, so unfortunately, we can't give you that one, even though all of your catches looked solid. :(
In your first video, you were cutting the "3 seconds" pretty fine quite a few times, but we gave you the benefit of the doubt. But in this one, I don't think a single one was held still for 3 seconds, and some of them looked like they weren't even completely still before you took the ken off. So sorry, but your record remains at 25. We're sure you can beat that - just don't be in such a hurry. :)

Edit: Added "-Balance tricks should be held still for 3 seconds." to the first post's rules.

Post by: BKA on 30 June, 2013, 12:21:11
Interesting...

So, firstly, that was 48, and well done!

Some thoughts that occur to us:
- You didn't film this "for the forum".... but hey, I guess that doesn't matter, you still did it, right? And it doesn't say you have to in the rules, so no problem there. In fact, to be clear, maybe we can now say something like "old videos and videos filmed for other events or competitions ARE allowed, as long as they are posted here by the person performing the trick."
- You adjusted the string with your free hand 4(?) times. Hmmmm. Now if this was a BKA live competition, that would not be allowed. Reading back the rules as originally set by Dave, he wrote
Quote...perform said trick, then without readjusting complete the same trick again and again and again
We went back and watched the existing record by Jarett, and he does a little finger twiddle with the hand holding the ball a few times, in order to adjust the string. So again, that would not be allowed in a live competition... but we already allowed it in the thread. Oops. So on that basis, I think we have to allow your new record to stand. Well done.

But I think to be consistent with our own rules, what we should do is "archive" your record as an anomaly. So... that means we have to go back and check the previous entries for Lighthouse Somersault: KendAlex did 12... but only 2 in a row without finger twiddles. Thorny did 21, but watching carefully, we reckon that there's a run of 9 (#6-#14) where he didn't adjust... so that's the new "proper" record.

jafish, you've still got the record of 31 on a stringless kendama though!

We'll also add "Please try to film in good lighting." to the rules. It's not very easy to judge if there's an error or infringement in a fuzzy video, and you all want us to believe you, right?

Right, sorry if this all seems a bit strict, but ultimately, clear rules = no arguments.

Well done, Alex. It's always good to better your own records!

But, perhaps that trick doesn't "fit" as a record in this thread. After all, in theory, that is a static balance, so it could stay balanced forever!

Quote from: Dave on 03 November, 2011, 21:47:46rules
-Balance tricks should be held still for 3 seconds.
We were tough on Ben with the SGSs, so have to apply the same rigour to you for those Lunar ones. I'm afraid you have a rather sketchy definition of both "still" and of "3 seconds". Which is a shame, because it's clear that you can do those tricks well. We'd encourage you to have another crack at those 2, making sure you breathe slowly and count "elephants" or "Mississippis" in threes next time. For counting purposes, remember that the moment the balance is settled is not "one", but "zero".

[Balance lands, and hand stops moving]"One Mississippi
Two Mississippi
Three Mississippi" <-- 3 seconds ends on the red "i".

They should be one standard trick though, no combination tricks. But go for it!

We call them Reverse Aeroplanes, but accepted! Well done.

Notes for next time:
Better visibility if the sun is behind the camera.
For Reverse tricks like this, the Ken (or tama) must travel up in the triangle between your shoulders and your hand. A couple of these ones were borderline, but okay.

Post by: BKA on 25 October, 2014, 16:33:20
Ben, you have the record... but it is only 16.
#9 dipped out of frame, as did #26, so #s10-25 set the record. As for the later ones, there were some that dipped out of frame, and also a couple where the ken could not be seen to entirely circle the ball. This trick is particularly angle-sensitive, so you need to make sure you are standing with your shoulders completely square-on to the camera.
The sideways video didn't help to judge, either!

Well done, but we're sure you can beat your own record again very soon with a bit of care....

Those are two different records.
With resets, it's "Turntables". Without, it's "Connected Turntables". Without checking, I think Dimensions currently holds the record for the latter. (Check the link in the first post in this thread.)

Rob's record is not for Connected Turntables, as he has several string/grip adjustments in that video. It would have been Connected without the adjustments. We're not requiring the Big cup catch for this one.

So, there is no Connected Turntables record currently.

[user]mrjuggles[/user], your records have been viewed by a moderator, and their decision is.....

Interesting!....
Now, for this trick, the strict competition/grading rule is that the trick must start with the ball held, and on the release, the ball must immediately start to swing forwards, with no backswing beforehand.

So, with this in mind, what do we make of your efforts?...

Hmmm, tricky. Now you start with the ball held, sure, but then what, precisely?
On close watching, my decision is that although there appears to be a very small backswing, this is still while the ball is being held, and on release the forwards movement begins. However it is very borderline, and therefore, I was watching like a hawk for any infraction... which I detected on attempt number 100, so...

You have set the record at 99 Swing Ins.

Note for you/others in future: Try to make sure that the string is not vertical at the beginning of your attempt, by holding the ball (at least slightly) behind the ken. A 45˚ angle in the string (relative to the floor) is recommended.

Note: Moderators may participate in record attempts, but if so, their attempts will be judged by a different moderator. Any attempts at breaking a record currently held by a moderator will be judged by a different moderator.

A) That's not Scoop Up Big Cup, it's Scooping Big Cup
B) The trick rule as defined for EKO 2012 was "6. Sukui Oozara/Scooping Big Cup (Cross-piece must be vertical at contact)" (about 15° error was allowed).
C) Therefore, sorry, none count. :-( Cross-piece too tilted each time.

B) I swear I tried to make vertical contact. I agree that some of them are not (I wasn't sure when I did it and I reviewed the vid), but I wasn't expecting a "none of them" :-(

I must try harder then.

[user]The Void[/user], your records have been viewed by a moderator, and their decision is.....

This is quite tricky, since the hole has to be properly resting on the spike, and that is a bit difficult to appreciate properly on video.

In particular attempts #7 and #12 were complicated to see and had to re-watch a few times, but I believe they are all good.

So 17 Slip-on-Stick that is.

Wow, just realised that that is the first Hanging trick that's had a record set for it.
There's space there for someone to grab a new record...
Hanging Spike
Hanging Aeroplane
Hanging 1-Turn Aeroplane
Hanging 2-Turn Aeroplane
Hanging Lighthouse
Hanging 1-Turn Lighthouse
Hanging 2-Turn Lighthouse
Get 2 or more in a row of any of those, and you've set a record! C'mon dudes, who's up for it?

@the milky oolong , your record has been reviewed by a moderator, and their verdict is...

"
Quote-Balance tricks should be held still for 3 seconds.
You're really pushing this on the first few, but JUST got away with it. 6 Hanging 1-Turn Lighthouses are yours.

Edit: Also, note: being backlit by the window puts you in shadow. In this video, it's still just about clear, but that could make it hard to judge."

Hanging 2-Turn Lighthouses: 3 (First one not still for 3 seconds).
Backlighting was not too bad in this case, but a more intricate trick may have been difficult to see clearly.
Anyway, well done!"

When I read that, I thought "I don't do that, I only do a single backswing." Then I watched the video again. Ah. Right, okay. In my practices, I'm in the habit of starting with my hand quite far forwards, and beginning the backswing from there. It seems in his case I've been moving into the forwards position and then immediately starting the backswing, which does make it a "back and forth". So thanks for calling me out on that, and also for letting me off. I shall make a point of starting from a still position in future! Cheers.
