FS: The Water 'Dama! - NIB Catchy Airs

Hey friends,
I was looking for a kendama to play in the pool/at the beach with my son and had trouble finding the Catchy Air in Canada so I ended up placing a bulk order of 24 from Europe to make the shipping affordable. :rofl: I am really excited to now have some for sale! :sunglasses: See below for my review.


Condition: Brand new, sealed in package. I will also include an extra string.

  • Price for US buyers: $20 USD ($12 + $8 shipping from Canada to US) Paypal F&F. Shipped USPS Economy via Third Party Shipper (see below) - WILL INCLUDE TRACKING - 3-8 days delivery.
  • Price for Canadian buyers: $25 CAD ($16+9 shipping) - shipped via Third Party Shipper (see below) - Includes tracking.

Notes on shipping to both US and Canada: Canada Post is on the verge of a strike and is also getting too expensive. I will be shipping via a third party shipper that requires me to drop off my packages in another city. I will likely only be shipping once a week - your patience is appreciated :slight_smile: A shipment just went out - I will post my next planned shipping date once I get more orders.

Here is my Feedback.

Note: I will trade 2 of these for a purple/white Catchy Air if you have one. Found one :purple_heart:

Colours available:

My thoughts after playing it a bunch over the last few weeks: I really like these. Not only are they great for water play (they also sink so you can play them underwater too) but they are a lot of fun to play in general. The plastic is really tough and doesn’t dent like wood. I’ve been really enjoying practicing earth turns without dulling the spike. :slight_smile: The design is 10 years old, the bevel and big/small cup are smaller than modern designs but the base cup was big for its time and this thing is AWESOME for lighthouses. I landed my first lighthouse flip on this in the pool last weekend. It felt AMAZING! :raised_hands: The rubber rings work great. Oh and it is WAY quieter than wood, it doesn’t clack loudly - so great for late night sessions. It can lunar, but it is challenging.
Thanks!

Bump :rhinoceros: – I took one of these camping last weekend and had a blast playing it everywhere including in the rain and at the beach. I really like playing this dama and I’ve been enjoying using it to practice earth turns (working up to whirlwinds :tornado:) and lighthouse flips. :upside_down_face:

Can confirm it lunars quite well. Landed 3 this morning (I’ve been struggling to get lunars consistent in any setup). It helped to restring it β€œMugen Musou style” - making pull ups straighter and more predictable.
