Sorry everything is vertically squished a bit. The JTV size limit made me have to convert it and apparently I did so incorrectly. I hope you enjoy anyway! :) The 64th Annual International Jugglers' Association Festival, July 18-24, 2011 in Rochester, Minnesota. This year was such a blast! Thanks to everyone who made it what it was, and thanks to everyone who let me be obnoxious with my camera and film you at all hours of the night. You rock :) See you next year!

Kendama (Japanese Cup and Ball) Freestyle Video

TeamKD's Void & Matt head into the blue to hit their latest trix and clix. Music by the marvelous Scaramanga Six.

I've only been playing kendama seriously for 5.5 years, so it's obviously rather early for me to be releasing a solo video, so I apologise for my hastiness. However, I hope you enjoy it, including some of the original tricks therein. If your playback device can manage it, please watch in HD/fullscreen to ensure the tricks hit your eyes with full force. Some tricks inspired by: Donald Grant, Neil Smith, K.Cima. SPOILERS!

This is just a montage of a few unused offcuts taken from another project, originally put together back in 2007.

The tricklist for the 2008 British Kendama Championships, which was held at the BJC in March 2008. (#8 should be called "Maeuchi", not "Kajiya". "Kajiya" means to tap to the base cup. Thanks to asidematoi for the correction.)

TeamKD spend an afternoon clicking around Bristol. Join the tribe at the British Kendama Open Championship at the BJC 2009. Watch the even better sequel "Kendama Jive!"

TeamKD hardening the core, pre-BKC. Careful, folks - it's windy out there.

This is an EPIC trick that i do not believe has been done before. i landed this today NOVEMBER 1st at 20:30./nthis has taken me nearly 8 months to land.

Onstage shenanigans from the renegade and open stages at the BJC in Doncaster, 2008.

My much delayed montage of last year's IJA festival!

This is a performance with "Kendamas without strings" at JJF2012 Free Performance.

Now the truth can be told. Simmering rivalry was put to the test in the only way that kendama gentlemen may respectfully settle matters. After the BKO weekend was out of the way, a stand-up duel was in order. Who would prove to be the better man? What a load of rubbish. :-) Filmed for a laugh in 30 minutes, Mr Jumpshoe and I threw this together for your entertainment. Salute to Rich W at 0:48. Click HD for 50 fps. Tune courtesy of the magnificent Scaramanga Six.

Errr..... see title! Getting into the vibe for Bungay Balls Up - no.8
