Cup Stacking Speed Stack How To

Cup stacking, speed stacking, sport stacking, whatever you call it, is a great body and brain activity.
It's physical, it's mental, and it's fun. All ages can enjoy speed stacking. Like any physical activity, it's important to be hydrated and keep BREATHING.
Don't hold your breath when stacking. Grip the cups lightly and move with grace. Everyone, no matter your age, will improve with practice. Challenge yourself, your friends, and have FUN!

It's the hard plastic thing that holds the cups together for easy transport and to prevent any type of warping.

A year after watching this video on my old channel Mattendo. Now my records are 1.684 2.118 5.947

[@noobsonly885]

These are some tips that I can tell you. Don't grab them by the top, grab them from the side. Do not also lift up the cups to high because that wastes more time. My highest score was 2.344

[@NastyTrizz]

Can I have a pro timer

[@yamashita5755]

sir, is this what you called "freestyle" speedstacking?

Freestyle is that you invent a new cycle like you want, but you don't do it in competitions, but you can with these.

Also, the cups don't slide that much.

[@Thomas.cox4]

Not trying to be mean or anything but your supposed to start at the left like your reading a book you go left to right also you never want to touch the top of the cups

[@dankirkjuggler]

I'm sorry, but you can go right or left. Doesn't matter. If you're left handed it would be easier to go the other way. And if you're a grown up you might have to touch the top of the cups for more speed due to larger hands. But what do I know, I'm just following the rules set by the World Speed Stack Association.
