Kendama - juggles with skill
The Kendama is a popular skill game from Japan. It consists of a ball (tama) that has a hole (ana). The ball is connected to a cord (IT) on the handle or sword (Ken). Therefore, the name comes (Ken-Tama).
Rules of the game
The aim is to pull the ball up on the cord, and then to catch or piss it up with one of the plates or the sword. Different trick options allow the kendama to swing around the arm or around the fingers. Whole trick combinations and routines are carried out on competitions. The opponent then has to try to make up the routine. If he doesn't do it, there are points for the winner.
