The Japanese are kicking ass at whistling. 1/3 of all the finalists in the Adult categoy were Japanese (5/15). They started winning fairly recently, and last year the 35th Annual competition was held in Japan. There are some other competitions that are held in Japan now, and it is only a matter of time before the young guys get older and Japan starts to win everything!
In the 2009 competition Japanese whistlers took out the first prizes in the teen and children’s categories and placed highly in the women’s… What would be cool is to have a whistle-odd between Holland and Japan!
An American woman did win the female grand champion title (Karole Anne Kaufman), but she was pretty much the only American who did (her tone was amazing).
