Our story

We are based in the beautiful heart
of Europe, the Czech Republic.

Our history

Watch out, because this is a story about how one man’s passion ignited the birth of RD buugeng.
Let’s discover our timeline from the perspective of our founder Roman Dobusch.

Discovering buugeng

I had the opportunity to meet Jay Firecat in Doha, Qatar. We both had performed on Souq Waqif and that was the very first I have seen somebody spin the buugeng. I was so excited to try it and Jay ended up teaching me since we were both staying at the same hotel there!

Buying first buugeng

I finally decided to go for a collapsible buugeng with no painting or protection. It got dirty really quickly and the magnets didn’t work so well at all! That didn’t stop me from merging myself into the world of manipulation pretty deep though.

Lighttoys LED buugeng

I knew that being a full time performer, adding buugeng into my shows would be important and luckily I pretty quickly discovered Lighttoys which sell the programmable LED ones! So after asking them if there is practice version available with no positive reply from them, I’ve decided to create it.

Search for woodworker

I tried working with different wood makers but nothing felt quite right until July 2017 when I met Pavel and his passion for crafting. Right from the start it was a perfect fit. We dove into prototypes which led us on an adventure of finding perfect materials, shapes & processes to bring you the RD buugeng you know today.

By this time we had already gone through many versions of our RD buugeng. So when Manuel Maes reached out to me about my buugeng we got chatting and it was the very first model of RD buugeng that went out to the world!
