- Damage Incorporated (Darren Finger, Scott Forster, Gregg Jochimsen) vs KubbUnited.com (Josh Feathers, Dave Giese, Chris Hodges) in the full championship match at the 2017 2017 U.S. National Kubb Championship.
I feel like a majority of the game is guys standing around flipping the sticks waiting to throw.
Have you seen baseball or golf?
its called batons
@Theresa .Y it's called "Roddy McDowel" or "Woodchuck"
how did i get here??
i came from triplesgames
@@cindrmon same
As soon as he mentioned a National championship i had to see by myself
This game is fun as hell
In Europe we play the King shot differently we shoot between our legs with our back to the king so you lean down look throu your legs and shoot this way. Makes it more interesting. If you shoot normal like in the video its way to easy. But really cool this game is played in the states too.😁👌
Wait? What??
That is interesting. I’m new to this game but the king shot seemed way too easy for it to be the end.
The way I was taught in America is the same. They also liked to make you throw the kubbs from behind your back though so that where they landed was more random and hitting the king on accident is easier to do.
That’s a house rule. We do the same when we play in Sweden. But official world championship rules state you throw like in the video.
There are a few rule variations in Europe. You can check out our two part series about some of them: kubbon.com/2018/06/19/european-kubb-rules-part-i/
Interesting. I love throwing games. I stumbled across this, because I was curious about a game I saw played on Midsomer Murders a couple of times, called Aunt Sally. It also uses sticks thrown underhand, only the target is a ball set on an offset steel pin atop a wooden plinth. I suspect Kubb may have been the inspiration for it, since it's hundreds of years newer.
Hi. Why do they throw less than the 6 batons in the first part of the game? Thanks.

I always thought that when the Field Kubbs are knocked over (not the base ones) you actually take the field ones out. Like they’re done for.
Me too! I learned that today, but have never heard they should still be in play - even though I'm from Sweden where Kubb is a really big thing
@@antonlindroth70 Do you think there’s just different ways of doing it? Or is that just like a house rule that’s not really correct?
There is a short version and a long version. The short version works as you described. The long version is usually played in finals, since with good player it would be over too quickly.
Fuck yea I love the game of kubb
Or something like that I don’t know how kubb works
I did Kubb on my Project!
The 2017 "Yawn on the Lawn"
let's gooooo
i was routing for them 😏
Oh wow! I've been playing this for years, even made my own set, but:
1) never knew what it was called (we called it the kingpin or the garden pins or just "throw sticks" :D)
2) I had the rules all mixed up and now countless people I've shown the game to also believe in the wrong version - we launched the pins within our own territory and then immediately advanced from the furthest pin to attack. And when opponents knocked out our field pins they were gone permanently. (someone in Denmark taught me like that idk :D)
3) did know you were not allowed to helicopter the sticks, but didnt know you cant do an overhead throw - we always allowed overhead though, bcs it didnt seem like it brings any advantage over the underarm throw.
Great video! Bought a set two days ago and wanted to see how pros play before I use mine the very first time :) A few things:
1. So professionals do not take out Kubb's after they have been hit the second time? The rules coming with my set (and also the rules I have always played it with) state that you take a Kubb out once it has been hit, thrown and hit again. I guess amateurs should play like that so it does not take an eternity :D
2. I like the idea of the starting team having 2 batons in the first throw, then the enemy team throws 4, and then the game continues with 6 per team. Will also make use of the rule. Is this ruling used in most official, competitive environments? Or is this exclusive to your league? If it is a common rule I could think of applying it to our games as well. The rules that came with my game say that the team throwing closer to the king directly starts off with 6 batons.
3. Most importantly: I was always wondering how you decide on which direction you roll the Kubbs to after they have been thrown. Does the enemy team decide? I thought the color-coding would be the solution to this in your case (though I never saw colored ones like those before), but as you can see in the video, this is not the case.
4. And lastly, what if the Kubb lands partially with less than 50%, or even with more than 50% outside; do you have to throw it a second time?
Would be cool if you had an answer to the aspects, I have been wondering all this for more than a while :D Greetings from Germany!
1. Nope, the kubb's never "die" according to the official rules. But when you are in a more social setting those rules are often used just so you can play faster/more games!
2. That is the official rules as well! You are also allowed to decide a certain side instead of start throwing if you manage to come closer to the king.
3. You only raise kubbs on your own side and you can choose whatever side you feel will the most strategic placing. When the kubbs lay in a manner which makes it impossible to raise to one side, due to another kubb lying there you have to place it to the other side. You are however allowed to raise it towards another kubb if it gets placed outside the map the other way. Those rules are quite tricky and to be honest hard to explain without using the swedish word "fösa" but I hope you understand.
4. If 50% or more of the kubb is inside after you've raised it it's an acceptable throw.

@@iamgod4948 Thanks mate, awesome answer :D Have a good evening!
My set is the same when it comes to #1. Like others have said, in a more social setting to speed up the game, the Kubbs can be removed. In addition, my set says something about stacking if you toss field kubbs and they touch each other. Stacked on top of each other or like a "T". I didn't see that being done in the professional game above, so I assume its more of a social aspect as well.
@@Enthusiast_Plus I think the stacking rule only applies when you knock over a Kubb that is standing up in the middle of the field, this never happened in this video because the pros are so good at knocking the middle Kubbs. (I'm still new so I could be wrong!)
@@Mrunreal Official US rules never have stacking. This is how nearly all US & European tournaments play.
Only one way to watch this: 2x Playback Speed.
If you knocked over all the original back 5, but there are still field kubbs. Can just go for the king or do all kubbs have to be removed from that side
Anything on the opposite side from you needs to be knocked down before the king shot. So you'd clear all your field kubbs, any remaining baseline kubbs, THEN you can go for the king.
@@kubbonmag So it's possible for the first team to knock all 5 kubbs over on the first throw, then kill the king with the 6th?
@@MrWHAAAAaaaaa it starts off 2-4-6 to prevent that. So first team throws two batons, next team throws 4, then it’s 6 batons a turn the rest of the game.
@@ChristopherJonesDesign excellent. Had no idea but makes perfect sense
I found a joke when I saw , Kubb National lol
HUMANS ARE WIERED
16:40 Play of the game
Who were the participants?
Kevin Doan The names are in the description. You can read more in our recap article too: kubbon.com/2017/07/11/u-s-national-kubb-championship-2017-recap/
It looks like they are trying to impress the crowd by spinning the stick as fast as they can.
This looks like Ireland
What the hell is happening here?
Kubb (pronounced like "coob" is a yard game that's getting more and more popular, espeically in the Midwest. The goal of the game is to knock down the King Kubb in the middle. Before you can attempt this, you have to knock down your opponents' Kubbs that are on the baseline. Before you can go for any of the baseline Kubbs, you must knock down any field Kubbs.
To start the game, one player from each team throws a baton as close as they can to the King without knocking it down - the closest team starts. In most tournaments, the first team to throw gets two batons, then the other team gets four, then each team gets six throws from there on. If Team A knocks down a baseline Kubb of Team B, Team B must through that Kubb into Team A's side of the pitch - this then becomes a field Kubb that must be knocked down before going for the baseline Kubbs and King. Hopefully this helps! The video is great to watch for more strategy as well.

I know what it is, I was just confused on why they were throwing the blocks at that stick in the ground.
Pope Guilty XIII one of the strategies in the game is to place your field Kubbs as close to the centerline as possible, and to the side, far away from the King. They were aiming for the near corner to group them together, make for an easier throw, and avoid the King
They paint the pieces?
Yes, in some tournaments.
I think it's natural color :-P
the inevitable blood stains from berserk matches
well its US colors right. Like in the logo of the U.S. National Kubb Championship (see thumbnail)
This sounded and looked like they were cheering for almost knocking the field Kubbs out of bounds. If you do this can they go back on your line instead of out of the game?
I'm not sure about the championships, but I've heard of people doing that as a house rules kind of thing
Is this for real, people sitting around in bleachers cheering on a drinking game....imagine everyone sitting around and cheering on Beer Pong....hahaha
you haven't been to many parties, have you?
😂😂😂😂😂
Quit flipping the damn Baton and just throw it, already. This is worse than watching curling.
This is worse than writing geometrical proofs
Congratulations to Kubb for replacing golf as the most boring sport to watch.
