I have to learn Swirls - very quickly, or else ...

10 days, there should be plenty... if only there were a good tutorial of them, or at least for half-swirls

I feel like I'll have to learn that combo twice: once with the brain, then once with the body.
I look forwards to it.

I can't believe you haven;t tried that yet, I've been doing these type of combos for years

please everyone, pay attention to the "isolation" part, specially on the last step, do not pull the tama

do you mean i have to use the only the motion of the tama so that it will come up it self and then execute the grip change?
@shalafi

[shalafi]

I mean that the ken and the tama go up, then as they go up, you switch your hand from the ken and move it to the tama.
As opposed to a typical pull when your hand stays at the same place and you pull the tama by tossing the ken outwards.

I hope I've said it clear, it is complicated to explain, but the video should be quite obvious.

I think I understood and I made an attempt.

[shalafi]

@SamB yes you did understood it perfectly. Accepted!

@LarsVegas just FYI, I was referring to this tutorial:
Kendama Tutorial: Half-Swirl Aeroplane - juggling videos hosted @ Juggling.tv

But you also have these two:

I laughed at my own ineptitude quite a lot when learning this. Did I get there in the end, @shalafi ?

@The Void The last isolation is just in the limit, but the limit is ok. Accepted!

[The Void]

Phew. Thanks!

Lucky bugger. I'm watching this over and over again saying 'swirlstopkenspacewalkdirectionintoswirlminispacewalkminispacewalkin'. In preparation, of course.

[The Void]

Yep, that's pretty much what I was doing!

[shalafi]

Apparently this trick is harder than I thought.

However both submissions were right at the first try.

[cello_91]

my go

 

it didn't feel like i pulled at the "isolation" part, but you tell me if i am correct

[shalafi]

@cello_91 the third isolation is in the limit, but the second is too loose (you should throw a bit later) so, rejected!

Because I know you can do better
