Okay so im absolutely torn. So do I buy a KROM pop and a KROM Noia or do I buy the 7 year bday slaydawg. Ordering tommorow and need some persuasion. Leaning towards the slaydawg but i don't know
A Slaydaw is a very very nice Kendama. Out of the box you may wont like it, but as you progress and it breaks in it handles super nice. Noisa and Pops are also super nice Kendamas. Played all 3 of them. Gunslingers are better on pop and noisa´s. But overall i would recommand the bday. Its also very good in lunars because of the cup hole.
Punctuation is the difference between "Helping your uncle, Jack, off a horse." and "Helping your uncle Jack off a horse."
Both are solid choices. If you're a stall guy (birds, stilts, axes) get a pop or noia because beech wood breaks in better for those imo. If you're a lunar and/ or juggle guy, get a b day because it has the balance hole and slaydawgs tend to be weight matched pretty well. Keep in mind that slaydawgs are slightly bigger. You can't go wrong with either.
Get a Noia hands down! Pop shape, with lol clear, cant go wrong. Its a perfect middle ground between slaydawg and a pop. Personally I like the slaydawg shape better, because it is slightly bigger, but the pop is more playable.
OT: I always kind of liked Let’s eat, Grandma. vs. Let’s eat Grandma. In the wrong hands commas can be very dangerous; be safe out there.
I sucked it up and bought the slaydawg . Thanks for the feedback wishing I could have just bought the pop and the 7 year but I just couldn't justify spending close to $150 cad on 2 Damas.
Doing the math and I am not sure how that ends up at $150 but I am glad you went with the Slaydawg. They slay.
@Ssucram you should try it from the other direction. The last time I shipped from Canada to the US it took longer and cost more than getting something from Japan.
