    I think this has influenced a high number of kendama players. Myself included.

    Other than Colin's practicing kendama, I watched the Girls Collective vid on terra's channel a ton and they were literally #goals to me.


    not an edit, but when i was beginning, i learned everything from this tutorial. i swear i've watched it so many times years ago X/
