Tricks we're pretty sweet. would have been nice to see a bit more of Costa Rica in the video. Personal favourite had to be suicide to cliffhanger

Excellent last trick, and cool Backhand work.
Was that a local kendama-esque toy that you picked up there, or was it already in your collection?

Thanks guys, I was kinda kicking myself for not getting more scenery/filler footage while I was there. It was kinda rainy most days though so that deferred me from carrying the camera around too much.

The other toy I use in the video is actually one I handmade a few weeks ago. I call it 'the pill' based on it's shape. Its just under two inches in diameter and 4 inches long when 'spiked'. It's made of a dense wood called Jatoba, so it's heavier then a kendama despite it's small size (about 165g).
Not as many possible tricks as a kendama, but fun to play with none the less.
