Generally, there are 10 bamboos poles needed, with two serving as the 'pillow' poles, and the other eight being laid across the 'pillow' poles. Eight young men hold the eight bamboo poles' ends facing each other in pairs. They will raise and lower the bamboo to the accompaniment of music. Girls jump and hop between the poles while singing and performing. Those whose ankles touch the bamboo poles are eliminated from the game. The last girl left is the winner.
