The man shown on this TV show between 2:15 and 4:45, Jose Miguel Sosa (another Rey del Trompo
), does some tricks using a traditional top. I think the most interesting are the kind of one-hand trapezes he does at 3:30. He calls them
mete y saca [put-in and take-out].
The video was probably filmed in Lima. He mentions that on TV they show rock-the-baby using
Diamante tops, but he dismisses the modern top and prefers the traditional one. But I would say his profession, preparing documents on a typewriter on the street, is the real flash back!
EDIT: The video with the crowd seems to be taken in Lima at the Gamarra shopping district. But the phone number for Sosa is from Huánaco, in Central Peru (population 170,000), and probably where he works with the typewriter.
I think this is the first time I see a bounce trapeze using a solid wooden top.
