TRADITIONAL GAME GASING

GASING

>Top spinning is very popular in Labuan. A length of rope is skillfully wound around the carved wooden top which unwinds quickly as it is thrown to the ground. The object of the game is to keep the top spinning as long as possible, lifting it from the ground onto a small flat wooden base. In competitions, opponents strike each other's tops and try to hit them out of the game. Even very young children have shown great skill in this traditional game of gasing.
