    Anyone know the name of the trick where you throw a tornado and then you toss it up in the air and then keep using your palm to bounce it up over and over back into the air? I think I've heard it called 'pizza toss' and 'spring' before but I'm looking for a video and how to do it? Thanks!

    I think @MattSweets did it in the Sweets Kendamas 2014 Pro Models video on YouTube. Watch Sweet's section of the vid and you will see him doing it. I don't know if there's any tutorials on it though....

    It's called pizza man. It's actually not that hard. I learned it from watching thorkild may do em. Just toss up the hurricane, and push up and twist your hand into the string.

    Adding a little bit to this, the string must be taut upon the twist back.
    If the hurricane (or Thornado?) is weak, you can't bounce it.

    Need to give that one a try. I'm having trouble entering and exiting tornados. Need to make it look more connected/flowy. If any of you guys have any advice on it, I'd appreciate it.

    Pizza toss/bounce is the usual name for it I think

    You kinda don't need to throw up a tornado to do it. I learned them by throwing up a horizontal spacewalk. Just swing the tama around in a circular motion horizontal then with that momentum do the space walk. After that bounce it back up with a little twist in your hand. Hard to explain when you're not in person
