I've been jamming a Ruisch legend tama with green KUSA string, the regular KUSA bead, and a GT-1 Hickory ken. I like to use tamas that are either heavier or lighter than the ken itself, and I'm more of just the regular beech and/or birch kind of guy. For paints, I like to shred pro clear, silk, striped-zen paint, or just Girr paint. I either use a solid color tama, split, or a stripe. Occasionally, I'll sneak in a fade.
I've been jamming two kendamas recently, a sweets f3 x atack & a nihon ash slaydawg, but now that I have a BDay slaydawg, that's been the one I've been breaking in for the past week.
Atm I'm jamming the KROM deluxe hors' red oak ken with a KROM spil kendama altid altid tama! It slays!!
My main jammer is the KROM 6 Year Birthday Slaydawg; definitely my favorite set up out of all the time that I've been playing kendama. I recently set up a Hickory Stodd that I'm trying to break in; I just got to be patient, jam it everyday and rub some sweat into the tama.
Currently jamming a Black and Tan stodd with a sharpie stripped walnut gt tama and a Bonz Atron slaydawg tama with a ash slaydawg nihon ken for variety in play!
GT 1.5, and the Jake Fischer mod are AMAZING. But I am using the Christian Fraser pro for #28trickslater
Mostly using a KUSA mint padauk and a TJ pro mod, but I steal my friends Sweets HG cushion clear whenever I can
