There's a rubber band version of sipa where a bunch of rubber bands are tied together (forming somewhat of a torus) similar to Norwegian Basse (game).Aamma58 (talk) 14:30, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Aamma58[reply]

Sipa means "kick" or "to kick", but I've seen people use their elbows and the palm of their hands. I've read that even the knee and head is allowed, but I haven't seen that. The shoulders may also be allowed, although I haven't seen that also. The use of the elbows and palm (and other parts of the body) may depend upon what the players agree upon, but the basic game is kicking with the foot.Aamma58 (talk) 14:30, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Aamma58[reply]

Sipa can be played as a cooperative game, and this probably should be mentioned in the article. Sipa :) can also be played casually without having to count the number of kicks or going for a personal best, and players can go freestyle trying to complete tricks.Aamma58 (talk) 14:30, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Aamma58[reply]

There's also distinct variants called Sipa Sa Lama and Sipa Sa Manggis played by the Maranao.

The Cebuanos call the game Takyan if I'm not mistaken, but it's the exact same game as Sipa.Aamma58 (talk) 14:30, 20 June 2018 (UTC)Aamma58[reply]
