Sick. I wish China was on cable TV here

A show with impressive albeit utterly "useless" skills. I like it!

i liked that other shuttlecock performance with the two people way better.. where one actually got on the shoulders of the other and was still able to give the cock (ahahaha) an accurate inside kick. this one kinda sucks because i have the feeling those things she was flipping onto her foot an than onto her head were magnets.. so when she was throwing the cocks (WAHAHAH..okokok!! I'm 12 at heart!) up on her head they seem to stick even horizantally on the edge.. to me that wouldnt be a very hard trick since I usually can put a footbag onto my head from a toestall with ease and never really took much practice.

I would love to see a slow motion close-up of how she picks those up! That was my favourite part!!

they are definately not magnetic, and shuttlecocks are weighted heavily at their base and the rest is basically just a feather, so it can easily lay sideways with the feather hanging off of whatever its sitting on and it will stay put.

it also doesn't really matter whether it's difficult or not, to the layperson watching this video, its amazing, and even to a footbagger, it is still impressive to see that much control, especially the juggling, with a shuttlecock, which in my opinion is significantly harder to stall on the foot
