    for a trick that everyone thinks is easy whirlwind was such a struggle for me, still not super consistent at it but can do it.
    but i guess hardest trick that i have learnt that i can do pretty consistent now would be lunar tre. i tried doing it with the rotation in the opposite direction for sooooo long until i saw jeff (dutchKendama) do one then it finally made sense.

    Probably either stilts or wing. Also, UFO was super difficult when I was first trying it out.

    I haven't been playing for very long, so this isn't that impressive, but I was super stoked to get one turn lighthouse to trade spike for the first time on my gloss paint tama last night.

    Taps juggles to in or to light insta ins but I'm not consistent w em. If we're talking consistent I'd say lun inward flip tap back to lun. Or slinger stuff in the middle of a line.

    Hard to say because what does "learned" really mean? Consistent at them? Finally hit it once after trying for super long? Somewhere in the middle?

    For consistent at them, I would say 1.5 swap spike is a hard one. That trick still gives people letters in KEN so I know that it's not easy for everyone.
    For somewhere in the middle, spike jug spike is a trick that I'm landing more than I'm missing.
    For finally hit it once after trying for a long time, wing flip for sure.

    Wing has to be one of the hardest tricks i've ever learned because it was hard to find the perfect place to land it.
