As you know,Taiwan has long history for top and after China lost traditional culture by revolution,they still keep old Chinese style.
There is top museum and the top school.
Diabolo is more popular and there is many diabolo teacher like PE teacher in school.But traditional Spintop is not popular?as diabolo.

We have discussed that school and Taiwanese tops from the township of Dasi/Daxi a few times.

A year ago Jim and Ludo had a spintop performer from Taiwan as the guest of honor for their festival : Liu Yung Ho.
And Larry D. is in contact with a top maker from Daxi.

I will make top trip with Mr.Fujita and other Japanese players.
That is wonderful! Is it an official visit sponsored by the government?

I have read a little bit about the cultural revolution.  By force the government changed fashion, film, theater, music and religion.  I never, until now, realized that it even crushed the culture of tops.    This helps me understand how important the Taiwanese traditional culture is. It represents a bit of China as a whole.
