    I tried the giveadama at SundayFlow 3, and the paint just slaps any lunar trick on there. And the "swoop" makes juggle feel really new. I would recommend copping one before they go out, but I'm waiting for the Philippines...

    Me too. I've already suggested/requested for the Philippines to be added to whatever list there maybe for future projects.

    Just got mine. I got the string and bearing upgrade. Asked them to weight match it nice and for a dark string. Stephen emailed me and told me he weighed it himself. And they, tama and ken, are both 67g. And they gave me 2 black strings and a red one and 2 bearings. Can't ask for better. And it does have lunar insanity. Great tracking. Landed lunar backflip first try right out of the package. I got #92. What # did you guys get? Stoked to the max on it. Worth the wait. 20171004_134518.jpg

    It's unlike any other dama I have ever had. But I'm getting used to it. But lunar are easier than light houses on mine. Which is dope to me.

    Man I hope your joking... that sucks. I'm left handed but I learned with righty strung damas so I just leave all mine. Lefty feels weird. I hope you can get another sword. Is the sarado alright?

    How do you like it? Aren't lunars insane? I stuck my first single double triple loon flip on it. Is yours weighed pretty well?

    The sarado and tama are ok, except now there is a broken sword in the sarado, all stuck and what not. I havent hit up @Steezdiaz on here yet but I am certain he will make everything right. I was actually afraid to really wrench on it because I was afraid it was going to break and then I hit him up online with the concern and the response was just to try and if it breaks they would replace it. I tried to pull on it with a little more force and then it just went completely.

    Well. At least they are gonna help you. Good customer service. You will get it set up eventually I think you'll dig the lunarness. But I guessing you wish that it would have just worked the first time. Lol. More waiting won't kill you though.

    Thanks for being patient man, your new one should have come today I tubing! Let me know if you got it :)

    Crazy about that last dama, haha it must have gotten fused together somehow. I checked the most recent one to make sure it would come off, you should be good to go ;)
