Hooray! (because the dance move is a dip, but the harudama resembles on ice cream cone (which can come dipped in chocolate or other sauces at some fast food chains) and the motion of the prop also has a conical shape as the spike point stays relatively fixed while the tama does a wider circle)

48
47Brad of Paradisecup catch between legs (lower hand behind back), toss tama up to catch on base cup with haru still between legs (requiring you to lift lower hand side leg and balance on one foot)KLhe/hime_s20-T. v 6.0512/20/202320 Tonvaguely resembles the bird of paradise yoga pose and was workshopped into existence with Bradley during a 20 Ton juggling practice

68Icarus Launch (aka Skull Crusher)launch tama incredibly high, perform figure 8 flourish and then add on an extra haru flip on the bottom hand side with full hand separation before catchin tama in a cupKLhe/hime_s20-T. v 6.11/28/2024BATB 2024 Parthenon Jamfirst landed in front of the Parthenon during BATB 2024 jam so a Greek myth name felt right and the tama needs to be launched incredibly high to have enough time for all the haru rotations. (and because of that height there is the very real danger of injury if you don't keep your eye on the tama and be ready to dodge out of the way --> skull crusher)playing with idea of extensions of the figure 8 flourish during Passout 23/24 In Goirle, Netherlandseasier to get extra height by launching from spike, hone your launch release position so that it is coming down in a catchable location (and not on your head), practice the haru movements while looking up so that you can maintain sight on the tama flying down near your very breakable face & finally, haru cups are likely to end up flipped at the end of the final rotation so it will likely be easier to start with the small cup facing up
