In this post we’re going to be teaching you the kendama trick called Lighthouse Flip. In order to do this trick you’re going to want to hold the kendama in the tama grip. If you don’t how to do that check out the post we made called How to Hold a Kendama. You also want to know the trick called Lighthouse.
If you don’t know that check out the post called Lighthouse. To start the trick off in the Tama Grip doing the trick Lighthouse. Your going to pull it up and balance it in a Lighthouse Trick. Then you’re going to want to combine both an upward motion and a forward motion in order to cause the kendama to rotate 360 degrees in the air.
You want to do an arched “C” motion and you want to pop more up than out.
That way when it goes up the gravity will help it land back down on the kendama.
Lighthouse Flip Tips
If you’re having trouble when it’s landing and sliding around, and you can’t get it to balance; try just picking up the ken and dropping it on the tama and trying to balance it. Once you get the hang of that, you can practice the full trick.
Pulling up, popping it up so it lands straight down on the tama, that makes it a lot easier. Then you just want to do a smaller motion in order to rotate it 180 degrees so that the spike is downward and that way it will land in the tama hole.
