Skills

Spike

One of the first tricks you have to learn and it will follow you through your whole Kendama Game career.

1 2 3 combinations are quite common in kendama play. Everybody tried this combo at least with Jumping sticks. But can you do triple lighty, jstick and spacewalk in one row without mistake? I hope you can.

Bird

Bird is not as tough as it looks. All you need to find a good Bird setup where tama sits on rim cup perfectly, relax, use your knees and you have it in your pocket.

Lighthouse

Lighthouse is the toughest beginners trick. There are many players that hate this trick. Learning it is not enough you have to practice it all the time.

Jumping stick

Beginners trick that will checks your string manipulation on more revolutions. The real pain comes when you do it stringless.

Traveler

The more you travel the more interesting places you'll see. You can travel to USA and see all National parks. You can go to Japan visit Mt. Fuji and taste the proper 饂飩. But if you want to get the most points you'll have to go to Tunbridge Wells in England.

Speed Trick B

Japanese classic proven by time.

Earthturn

Only few can turn the Earth. Can you earthturn?

Moshikame

Moshikame is a basic trick that tests your consistency. Each catch counts as one Moshikame.

There are two types of skills available. For the first type you can just do the trick or the series of tricks and the badge is yours. The second type is more complicated and has three levels. First level is bronze (easiest one), second is silver (moderate one), third is gold (hardest one). All skill levels are ordered by date from oldest to new.
