    Hey guys! I am @Ryan Brewer brother! Recently i have been using all of his kendamas, and i'd love the chance to have my own. Also i'd like to be able to give him one too for him helping me with kendama so much. He plays hours on end every day and i think he deserves a new one! The one he's using now is kind of broken, it's all chipped and stuff. He'd love this. Of course he referred me.

    Hey peeps! My name is Cody Merrihew and I am from NY state. Kendama is fairly new to me, been playing since February of 2017, but I take on new challenges very quickly. I am most stoked about learning new tricks and mastering the ones I like most. Just saying, I'm not really known that well on IG for being a player yet, but that all comes with time.

    hey name Brandon(@ryecebowl insta). I've been playing dama for about 5 months now and I'd say I'm not bad. I guess. so I started an account with my friends on Instagram (@ken_editz) and the part I love most about kendama is that you can always constantly improve with it. I really love kendama USA damas.

    Hello everybody !
    My name is Lenny "Shimron" Giuly, I'm 25 years old and I've been playing Kendama for approximately 6 months now, and I love it more and more everyday !

    I started Kendama with a friend who showed me a bunch of videos, I was so impressed, I couldn't resist to try it myself too.
    Someday before I bought my first Kendama, Thorkild May hosted an event for the lunch of the KROM X Bibi Chemnitz collab in Paris and for the first time I could see real live slayers. 2 days after, I bought my first Kendama.
    It was a Nativ, a Kendama brand from my home country, France. I still play with it sometimes but I find it very small and light.
    I quickly bought a better Kendama some weeks after I started, a KROM Slaydawg.
    I was so hyped to own a KROM Kendama as this brand is kinda what got me into the hobby. I've been rocking this beauty ever since and still love it like day one.
    Recently, a friend brought me a Legaxis from the last KWC. It's been a day since I tried it and I must say, it is the best Kendama I played with so far.

    You can follow and see my progress on my Instagram @Tookaindama !

    Other than Cedric, there was also another Frenchman i happened to know who interns at Gloken (he doesn't play much though)!
    He goes by the name Alexy Camus, perhaps you can reach out to him on FB and talk dama!

    What's Gucci DS,
    My name is Kevin, I'm 13, and I live in the Inland Empire, CA. I've been playing dama since mid December of last year. The community is pretty chill like Dylan Westmoreland, and the game is fun.

    Hello my name is Brad Underhill and I started playing kendama since I believe a couple of months before Christmas.
    How I got to find this website is my friend @Jack Harris. He referred me to this website. I love playing kendama because how much skill and eye hand cordnation it takes. And I'm glad my friends and my PE teacher introduced it me with out them I would have never gotten into this fascinating game

    What's up guys new to all this. Names Dan Lansdowne and just work fulltime in a supermarket. Started playing New Years this year when my best mate showed me/introduced it to me. Bought my first ken from Kenusa not even a month later was a Krom Delux maple/walnut split and an Alex Smith 2016 pro mod. Always had an interest in wooden creations/furniture and this is helping push that dream come true. I have a piece of Iron bark which one day hoping to turn into a kendama. Based in Adelaide, South Australia. There is no community and everything my mate and i see is what you guys post and we are ever so great full. Got a small mob starting to slay now :). Huge shout out to Teej for always replying and answering our stupid questions haha. That pretty much says all hopefully sesh with you guys when we travel!
    Not most active on insta but
