    @Christian Fraser 's original pro mod design was rad, I still have one fresh (sry Cfrase)

    I've been jammin an Eldridge pro mod lately, but I agree on the Iji mod being extra dope because of the Japanese flag design - @Nick Lectura

    I like my mod cause I designed it (duh), but if I had to choose another I think I'd go for a Thorne cause I like green and the general theme he has going, or a Sander for some hole tracking. Orrr a Bray champ, if thats an option. Love the triple stripe.

    Yes I agree. I was a barista for the mornings and craft beer drinker by midday throughout college. It definitely has a soft spot to the sweet memories of mine.

    I really love the 2017 CFraser pro mod from sweets. The maple just makes it so playable and the shape is perfect for lunars and birds. However, I will always love my Kendamausa Turner Thorne V4 pro model. It still plays great after almost 2 years of shredding and I hit many of my first tricks ever on it.

    Coop 2017 has to be up there. Also, super shocked nobody has mention @BallardKROM 's mod yet, it's probably up there with th Iji as my other two faves. Finally, super stoked for the @RWB Mfg mods. Copcopcopcopcopcopcopcop

    The only pro mod I own is the Ballard Slaydawg, it's the best looking one imo (along with Iji's). Otherwise it would be Eric Martins or Jarrod Porters, cuz they look suuuuuper great, and I think I'd enjoy playing them! Not too big on promods though, cuz I feel like I am playing someone elses kendama a bit too much. Most of them are really neatly designed though.

    At the momeny my favorite one is KUSA TJ's one, the colours are gorgeous and the sticky paint is so helpful to improve your play when you start. Matteo's dreamcatcher one is also neat, the mix of wood is really nice.

    Just picked up a @MattSweets mod! Have a few pro mods from the sweets team in my collection, had to get one from the man himself this time around. I've only given it a quick little test, but felt good, stoked to shred it proper once I'm home from NYC
