Wonderful collection of videos Jack.  8)   Thanks for assembling all of these in one place for us.  ;D

Why did you stop at 2:07am?

i had to stop because kwebbelkop and jacksepticeye were waiting to be watched @-@

You really had a binge of koma videos!  :o

I appreciate your effort, but too much of a good thing can cause indigestion  ;) I suggest that you put descriptions on each video, so people with little time can decide which ones they want to watch first. I also suggest you post the turning/making videos on the other board (for example, a thread with the beigoma making).

I have not yet watched every video, but one of the most interesting so far is the old man doing a variation of Sewing Machine where he feeds extra string while pumping. Also, it seems there is a song associated with battling the Sasebo tops  :D

forgive me  :-[ i shall do so in the future!  ;D and thank you for re-arranging the vids in those separate threads, i tip my hat sir  ;)

in the meantime heres an impressive koma performance

I am sure the Earl will appreciate the team work on that passing by the white team. Lots of regeneration on some of those videos.
Using a long string can make the play more spectacular, I think.
I wonder if the last one is a street performer, a la Salvador.

The 'street performer' has a motion with is rather like spinning spider with a little pop of the top off the string and a lasso.  Sort of in between roller coasters and spinning spiders.

I do love team topping.  Or in this case, couple komaing!  I firmly believe this is a potential growing edge of our sport that has not been developed.

Can you believe the guy who has his face blurred out so no one knows who he is while spinning?  Who could ever be ashamed of their whirling activity?
