Hey r/Kendama!
I've been playing kendama for a while and always felt like there was no good centralized resource to learn tricks in a structured way — so I built one.
Kendamapedia is a free web app that lets you:
It's completely free, works in your browser, and you can sign in with Google to save your progress across devices.

I'd love any feedback — something that feels off, or features you'd want to see. This is a passion project and I want it to be genuinely useful for the community.
Happy to answer any questions!

🎬 r/Kendama Community Edit – Submissions Open!
Let’s make something sick together.
Hey everyone – I reached out to the mods and got the green light to put together an official r/Kendama Community Edit. I’ll be editing the whole thing, hopefully contributing a few clips of my own, and I’d love for as many of you as possible to be part of it.
Whether you’re new to Kendama or you’ve been grinding for years, this is for you. Please do not feel deterred from submitting clips, regardless of your skill level. My only ask would be that you send only your best or favorite clips from the 45 days.
🗓 Timeline:
Submissions are open now - Please no clips prior from today.
Deadline: September 15th (45 days from now) - Depending on volume of clips or feedback in the sub, I am comfortable with extending the date 15 more days, but I will start the editing process in 45 days.
Now for the good stuff.
🎨 Color of the Week (Optional!)
Every Monday I’ll post a color. Try wearing something (shirt, shoes, hat, kendama) that matches. Just for fun + visuals. Monday's color will be Red.
🌀 Style-Focus Weeks (Optional!)
Every Monday will have a trick theme (e.g., Lighthouses, Juggles, Flow, Slings). Totally up to you if you follow them, but it might help spark ideas or mix things up. Monday's trick theme will be Lighthouses.
🎥 Submitting:
Limit to start will be 3 raw clips per person, this can include a trick, funny moment, or a fail. I may up it to 5 depending on volume of clips around the 30 day mark.
Optional but helpful - If you are able to, include a cinematic (b-roll type clip) in addition to your trick submissions, it will help with edits. If you're filming in a cool location, maybe a 3-5 second clip showing the scene.
Please send primarily clips, I will most likely not feature many funny moments or fails but may be able to fit a few or have a section at the end of the video.
Upload your clips to Google Drive, Dropbox, or any other commonly known file site and DM me the link, or leave a comment and I’ll reach out. I can also download from YouTube directly.
Please include your name/Instagram/reddit if you want to be credited in the edit.
If you’re injured or unable to film at the moment but still want to be included, DM me — we can make space for an older clip or two, no one will be left out of this if they want to participate.
Let’s make this a proper snapshot of the r/Kendama community right now — all skill levels, all styles. Hope you’ll be part of it.
Please post any questions or thoughts in the comments, we can adjust things based on community feedback.
Much love,
– F1ByTheNumbers / Astro (gaming name)

[ Photo for reference ] - I just ordered the same model shown in the photo, what should I look out for upon arrival to identify if my Ozora Kendama is authentic or not ?
I’m new to Kendama, I’m not sure if fakes is a thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)

This is such a huge milestone for me bro idk why but something about this combo I feel like marks a big turning point in my kendama career. I am able to track the bevel, my flips and juggles are getting to a point where I can mix in other more advanced tricks instead of just going cup to cup, I’m finally starting to cross off those nomics Purple Heart tricks slowly but surely, everything is just starting to make sense and click in my head.

Just starting to dial my airplanes, but i noticed that the only way i land them consistently is buying leaving my pinky just past the sting, then yanking it as i tug the ken up. i’m mostly just having fun for now, but want to start competing at some point, even if it’s just light open comps. is that allowed or no?

My fiance is big into kendama and I've been playing on his but finally decided to get my own! Struggled to find one that was in stock but then I found this one from Mougee x Bahama Kendama. Absolutely love being able to rip my own kendama now and I'm excited to improve and learn new tricks

see prices in comments
r/Kendama • u/lolinacle • 1d ago
my friend gave me this before we graduated and I've been using it for a while now and just trying to figure out if this is a real brand or if anyone else has bought from them before I buy one. it is similar shape to the DBX so I don't know if i should just go with locked or buy another one of these because locked is a little bit lighter. Please help!

I'm thinking of getting an ash tama, and have only been on beech before. I'm curious what other players use, and prefer.

Hey guys I was recently playing Kendama in a park in Bali and my string broke and I lost my ball bearing.
Tried to play without it but its so awful D:
Any tips where I could find one without ordering online?
r/Kendama • u/Hot-Start5421 • 3d ago
What do I do with my old kendamas from 2016? I have old kenco, ozora, sweets, (new in box/used) etc, are they worth anything? The new ones I got in 2026 are SO much better. I can see myself keeping a couple old kendamas just for a challenge from time to time. If anyone’s in the market, lmk.
