Chinlone

[Evo]

Just came across this video of a game called chinlone:

From wikipedia:

Chinlone is the traditional sport of Burma (Myanmar). Chinlone is a combination of sport and dance, a team sport with no opposing team. In essence chinlone is non-competitive, yet it is as demanding as the most competitive ball games. The focus is not on winning or losing, but how beautifully one plays the game.

Sounds and looks great.  :cheers:

Well, in my opinion it isn't . It is hard and the bounce is strange. The tricks are different as well, a trick that looks like khtw is named Mandala after the city Mandalay where Chinlone is played annualy at the Waso Festival . Sickest sport ever ..,
