Kendama will easily overtake skiing and snowboarding in 2020 or sooner. It is an all season sport and has a much better culture. It has made its way into many different cultures even popular rappers are hitting the dama. According to Harvard scientists 2/3 people in the United States will have used a kendama in their lifetime by 2020. For skiing its like 1/5000.

Oh I remember these things. Truly one of the dumbest things I've ever seen. That kid in the video is a fucking loser.

Op I can't believe you called this a sport. So damn sad

I can't believe people can land those. I even have a lunar-balanced 'dama and can't walk around with it balanced like that for 20 seconds, let alone land it.

Some of the shit pros do is totally crazy.

They are fun as fuck and once you get good at it and have friends that do it. It’s awesome. Don’t hate if you haven’t hit a kenflip.

I totally get it, I've got a few tricks which I got after a ton of practise. Lunars I've tried a ton, but it seems impossible to me right now. :)
