This exercise challenges players to throw and catch the Pocket Ninja using only two fingers, constantly changing grips.

NAME:
Climball

PROFILE:
Joachim and Dieter have been friends since their childhood and are the founder of the company Climball. Both are tinkerers and had been contemplating the development of a meaningful game for quite some time. Dieter, who spends every free minute climbing walls, came up with the idea to introduce a new twist to the theme of climbing. He immediately shared his idea with Joachim, who already had some thoughts in mind. Together, they embarked on an exciting journey to develop a game for the fingers that sharpens the mind and senses while maintaining a connection to climbing. Thus, the Boulderball and Pocket Ninja was born, and thanks to the designer Martin Oberhauser, its design is unparalleled. Joachim, an expert in mental and cognitive performance enhancement, excels at playing with the Pocket Ninja like no other. He continuously develops new game ideas.
