I’m not doubting the quality of any kendama company, least of all Sweets. Their stuff looks awesome. But I do think it’s unfair to promote something like the Tribute, or any others with a glossy tama, as a beginners kendama. It’s not like those damas aren’t more than capable of Lunars and Lighthouses. The tacky tama just makes them easier.

I’ve only been clicking for a few weeks. I actually kind of wish I’d gotten a tackier tama. I’d be sticking Lighthouses by now instead of only holding them for a second. But, I know a few more weeks of sneaking in play will wear my tama in well enough to hold them.

So, Greg, if you’re in the market, I’d say go straight to the Sweets Atack. It’s about $5 more than a Tribute and will probably flatten out your learning curve a little. Or, if you like to do things the hard way, like me, get something else and break it in.

Quick question, Nemyo… How tacky is the Atack? What sort of surface would you compare it to?

It’s quite tacky, and I honestly don’t know what surface I would compare it to…

Its sorta like the beadblast of kendama, and is sorta like a beadblast in feel, but I can’t really think of a surface right now that it resembles it fully or is very similar to it. All I can say is that it made lighthouse easier to land (but it is still challenging to land of course, just a lot easier than with a glossy finish)

I’d seen where someone had mentioned a matte surface helping with balance tricks. Sounds like maybe that’s it.

Sigh, the last thing I need is a new hobby with tons of subtle variations in the products that I want to try.
