An Imperial top that is not a Duncan.

With great difficulty!  :P
Actually, I suspect they wind it by just wrapping it a few times around the ribbed region and throwing in a horizontal movement while kneeling, with the tip pointing down. It looks well used, so somebody did wind it and throw it!



I had not seen that Imperial from Hong Kong before. The white rim weight is an interesting feature.

Now, the really difficult question: how do they do tricks with that?  ;D
