Ben and Kristian are pro!!!!!!! Ben and Kristian were announced pro during the Sakura Classic Halfway party at the Hatch in Oakland Ca. This is the video that played on the movie screen inside the bar! The party was vibes vibes vibes vibes. Full video and mods available May 1st.
Premier was awesome man! Video was sooo good. These pro mods are next level, don't sleep on these y'all.
Congratulations to Ben and Kristian on becoming pro! Both very deserving players. I'm stoked to see the full video!
I heard you get a free bandana for your head with every @Ben Herald purchase and a free extra long to your knees grain theory t-shirt with every @Kristian Aynedter purchase. CONGRATS! You two have taken kendama to another level.
Can't wait to see that vid tomorrow! :0 I'm wondering in which aspects the BH shape is different compared to the Stodd. Haven't seen much info out there yet..
Ben's is beefier. The Stodd shape was a little skinnier than the GT-1, but Ben's is beefier. It's also a little bigger than standard size, like 3% or something like that. There's more info on this site if you search around for it
Based on owning the mod and knowing what's changed a bit, the small cup is smaller than what you're used to (Ben doesn't sling that much), "it's .5 cm taller", "it's bigger where it counts" (aka the Big Cup for lunars), you can really feel the beefiness, and the basecup/slipstop/handstall/swoop are a bit bigger. And I was told that it was based on the tall boy.
All true, all true. Shortened tall boy spike essentially. If anyone reading this is looking to level up on lunars (specifically lunar backflips), I recommend copping a Ben mod or an Aynedter mod. Both slap the lunars
These pro mods sold out in minutes... I got all the way to PayPal confirmation and it told me my cart was empty. Oh well gotta wait for next batch lol low key bummed
DANG IT... I MISSED IT! I am super pissed right now. Before I confirmed it said that my cart was empty.
