Terra Pill

Any pill lovers here?
i got a normal beech terra pill and was thinking about a cherry wood one.
What are the benefits from cherry wood?

 

Get a Jumbo, so much fun.

Cherry wood is...heavier?? I have no idea. Looks cool, sounds different, probably breaks in differently? Those are my guesses.

I'm sure @htimSxelA could tell you.

 

I actually bought the pill at the same time i bought my first kendama. TBH i was way into the pill for a while before getting into the dama. Still pick it up and jam it from time to time

I guess i have an older one and they are different now in some way? That's just what I've been told.

 

I have 3 Pills and 1 Jumbo Pill. The Jumbo is so fun with stalls, and the regular-sized Pill is so fun with string tricks and juggles. A lot of people like the cherry wood and purpleheart regular-sized pills because they're heavy and easier to control. I love both jumbo and standard.

 

i got a greyscale in a trade and really really like it. great SP and DS practice~

 

yup! I have a jumbo, cherry and regular pill. honestly, playing around with pills is how i learned basic string tricks when i was just starting.

the cherry pill is definitely heavier (but not super heavy) than the regular one i have. in addition to easier to control, i find stalls are wayyy easier on cherry/heavier pills and the crisp clack sound it makes when you spike is just oh-so satisfying

 

Pills are awesome in my opinion. I definitely think having at least one in your collection can help you get better at kendama. Using them as cross training tools. Sometimes when I'm chasing a trick and I'm having trouble,I'll switch over to the pill to get a different perspective. Super fun! I have 4 reg pills and a jumbo!

 

I have three (maybe four) regular sized ones and a jumbo. These aren't Terra though. They are hand turned. I like the jumbo pill a lot and play it more often than the standard. I agree with Chelsea, jumbo stalls are so fun

 

I have a pill, and it's great and all, but when I have people over and the kendama feels too daunting, I let them try the pill first.

For me, I don't really use it. It's still super rad, but you just can't pull me away from my damas for too long, haha.

 

I got a purple pill a while back,
they are soooo fun to play with
thank you alex smith for coming up with the idea

YOUR BRILLIANT!!

 

Just got my pill. Thinking that its more string tricks than anything else. Am I missing something?

Thanks

Thanks!

 

I really need to pick up a jumbo pill!! how much do they weigh?

 

Hey @htimSxelA, where is Pill Tricks Vol. 2?

 

I ended up getting a couple of free jumbo pills (due to a KendamaUSA mistake, so awesome they let me keep them) and just made a video. At the end I was doing some pill tricks and it was so fun! I hadn't done any pill stuff in awhile, and somehow my increased kendama ability must have translated over because I could do a bunch of pill tricks that I could never do before. Anyway, it was a lot of fun, and I was thinking about that video you made because I've always liked it, wished there was another! I would be totally stoked to see some new stuff.

 

i have a guy wright pro mod and it plays so well
