    Hi guys! I enjoy mixing up my damas to give them that new feeling/touch, or just because they look great in a new setting. For that reason i would love to see you guys favorite customized setups!

    I have a Roots Rainbow Sherbet tama on a Sweets F3. Awesome dama, haven't rocked anything with sweets in a while, but I'm a huge fan. Very well balanced.

    honestly, i don't mix and match too often but the few times i did, i got some pretty amazing setups! my favorite mix-matches:
    • kusa silk half split tama x dwi beech ken (great all around dama/definitely was an everyday jammer/my mko setup from last year)
    • sweets bobber x maple rwb ken (slings for dayssss)

    I flipping love mashups... My favorite as of now is probably my TK16-Terraflauge or Shenzu Bamboo Rasta Pasta.

    Ah that thing looks great @Yourdy

    I'm usually not one to mix n match, but I've seen a few REZ x Sourmash setups lately that are really clean looking!

    Haven't been mashing up anything for a couple of months. These two set ups were super honed when @Dwesty and I were practicing pre-KWC.

    Hmm so many good choices. I'm CONSTANTLY swapping tamas and kens around. Right now I'm hooked on this Rez X Teal With It Stick AF Combo. It slays lunars...which you know I'm into.
