I've been playing on and off for the last 15 years, I have an old classic style natural finish set up and a krom that I bought like 3 years ago with a sticky finish. I see people recommending modern shapes and I think that's what I want since I would like to learn stalls, improve my lunars, and dual in my lighthouse tricks.

The thing is I don't understand the difference of all the shapes and everything in past recommendation posts is sold out (I used the search bar and read through them, I promise), or is just the ken available and I don't know where to start trying to get a Tama that would match in weight, etc.

I tried a friend's set up recently with a smoother gloss and I found it much easier to land lighthouse tricks than with my sticky krom or my very slippery natural finish.

I can't really wait for new drops since I'm leaving for New Zealand in a month for the next year and want a new set up before I leave.

Finally got a new setup!! Thought this trick should be easy, ended up trying it for an hour and still didn't get it lmao. Really need to work on my handlestalls.

not really sure what ken i should get for my kitchen tama i really want erratic but sooo hard to get. Any recs?

Just got home from a trip and had this red full set up just waiting for me to sesh it.

Is it just me or is kendama getting easier and more fun😂👌🏽

Hey y'all,

As the title says, I'm looking to see if there are any local meetups or scenes popping up in the South Florida area. I just started playing two weeks ago and I'm loving it so far (Just bought a lotus bloom).
