1-turn lunar, inward lunar, 2-turn airplane, and ONE 2-turn lighthouse with the new grain theory.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i didnt think the wormhole would make that much of a difference. but, it does.
the grain theory ken is different from any other ken ive played. the cups have rounded corners on the bridge, similar to a musou, but not quite as pronounced. the slip-grip ring is slightly higher up on the ken and also a little bit bigger than a JKA. the swoop and deeper base cup give a better lunar balance as well. and, i dont need to mention that grain theories are weighted to perfection. much like an ozora, the weighting difference is within 3 grams between the tama-ken.
after seeing how easier the harder tricks are with the wormhole i am tempted to drill a wormhole in another kendama. however, it really is the entire design of the grain theory ken that makes it play so well. imo, playing with a grain theory is an entire different kendama experience.
