We Became a Company!
Our company went live at the end of August! After working for nearly a year on piecing together all the puzzle pieces, we were excited to announce and begin the roll-out of our first project.
A little backstory on the company for those that may not know: 365 Kendama was founded in Portland, Oregon by Chris June and Nic Stodd in 2022. After spending years working with other companies, the time was right to start their own venture. With 20+ years of playing experience between the two of them, they hope to bring a player’s mindset to their company approach. With deep roots in the PNW, they hope to revitalize and continue to grow their local scene while inspiring other scenes worldwide. 365’s goal is to be more than just a company that sells kendamas, but one that helps grow the kendama community as a whole.
Our First Project- SU LABS!
When we first starting discussing what our first kendama drop should be-there were many ideas thrown around. We really wanted to have amazing paint and we agreed that Su Lab makes the best playing and consistent paint. We decided that Su Lab tamas on our new Fusion ken was the perfect premiere kendama.
Many people have been asking when the re-stock of the With Cream, Morning Cup, Vader, and Purple Rain will happen. Long story short-There will not be a re-stock of these colorways. If we are ever to do more Su Labs, we will make different designs. Just don’t hold your breath!
What’s Next?
We are currently working on a new kendama series! We are working as fast as we can to get more Kendama's in stock, and we’re confident y’all will love these next designs. Stay tuned to our social media pages for updates
