It was Ryan Brewer who was trying to sell them. He also ran the Instagram account kendama.klips, but changed the name to bolt kendamas after starting his company. They had one American made Kendama and were working on a Chinese manufactured Kendama. From what I have heard the owner lost interest in Kendama and down went the company. Now the Instagram has been taken over by Jacob Trebil, owner of cobra Kendama, and has changed the name to dama tricks. However, the company is no longer in business.
Yeah, I just talked to Jacob and he said that the owner of bolt quit Kendama and sold the Instagram account to him. Now he will be promoting smaller companies that have new releases and reposting cool clips.
I was thinking that maybe others thought that their new damas were essentially another generic natty that other companies carried, and so maybe they were turned down by that? I'm not so sure, but I really wanted to cop one! If they don't sell them anymore but still have some left in stock, I would really want to ask if they could send me one just to test out!
Funny you say that.. I remember being one one of his live streams and he must have said at least 10 times "go cop a dama now" and i picked up a weird vibe.. Not surprised to see this lol.
Same I saw him playing with a norx mod that he said was sick but he said don't buy this buy a bolt a lot - I mean a lot
Well lets take this from a personal stand point. He probably invested a lot of money into it and thought it was going to pay back immediately and got bummed when it didnt pan out right away. Loss aversion probably had him shitting his pants and he panicked, thus dropping his prices drastically within 24 hours of the launch just to recoup what he perceived to be losses. These actually were not losses, he didnt give his investment the time to mature. This is a common mistake in business. If you invest money into something a 10% return is considered a good investment, which means it will 10 years to start making off of it. This doesnt mean you will be working for free for ten years, you still pay yourself, it just means that initial investment will not break even for ten years after your expenses are paid for. And this is a good investment, if I could get that back on my investments year after year I would die a billionaire. People just let their personal fear of losing money cloud their decision making, and this is clearing what happened here.
I would assume so, I believe he was shipping orders so if he lost interest your order probably wouldn't get shipped
