Description:

Kendama is a traditional Japanese toy made up of two wooden cups placed in the center of a wooden spike. There's a smaller cup at the spike's base and a ball connected by a string to the center piece. To play, hold the toy, pull the ball upward so that it can be either caught in one of the cups or land with the hold on the spike. As you become more advanced you can perform tricks such as sequential balances, juggles and catches.
