Nice! Love the stripes.
Also if you practice spiking and the spike starts dulling, I suggest you put a couple coats of super glue on the tip to make it more sturdy.

So I've been using my new kendama and I like it a lot better then the tribute. The wood is much lighter and I feel like I can track the tama easier with it. Makes me want to buy different brands or different types of wood.

I got the Krom Walnut and Rubberwood.

I feel like these designs on the Kendama would make it easy to track

I believe dorkvader has an Ozora which was his natural color one. I think his string was super long but it felt just as light as the Krom.

Also, I just discovered the pocket guide that came with my kendama. There are some seriously amazing kendama life hacks in it. 10/10 would read again
