Fast hands and an ability to concentrate is taking one Turakina teenager around the world.
Caleb Arthur captained the New Zealand Black Stacks team to Speichersdorf in Germany over Easter where they grabbed a 20-plus medal haul at the World Sport Stacking Championships. The Turakina teenager has been involved in sport stacking for about seven years having discovered a talent for it early on. He's now among the best in the world.
Sport stacking involves competitors stacking 12 cups in sets of sequences. Three sets of stacks takes Caleb about 5.40 seconds.
"Stacking is a very good thing for eye-hand co-ordination and it helps develop your brain, using left and right sides," the 17-year-old said.
"It's just a sport that you can do at home and it's only you. It's just really fun, especially when you get fast - you enjoy it quite a lot more."
