I would suggest either get a set of Plus or get a set of MX Sport. They’re softer, so when you hit yourself in uncomfortable places (Trust me, you will) it won’t hurt as much. All of them work fine as beginner sets, but the Vmax sets are made of a harder plastic that can hurt if you’re not careful.

Kendama’s are great!Once you start to get the feel for it ,there are plenty of things to do with them.Don’t knock it till you try it. :wink:
I also had a pair of astrojax ,but sadly ,they were missing. 😕

Tried a kendama from Yomega at Eli Hops For Hope. Not very good at it, but it was fun.

I think I will ask for some astrojax for x-mas. As of now I am just using three counter weights attached to a yoyo string. May not be the best, but it works.

It makes a world of difference. Counterweights aren’t heavy enough, and the whole stringbud system the new jax sets use just makes it all so much more fun to use.

Yeah, I was messing around with the counterweights a few minutes ago and figured that out the hard way.

I remember when AJ first came out… I was very very excited to buy some. It was very cool, and it’s still nostalgic for me… That being said, I’m pretty terrible with them, I just cant get into a good “flow”

It’s one of those things that just takes practice and time. It’s just like getting smoothness in yoyoing.
