Signature Models
From Sweets Kendamas:
Frank Morales - Franky has been playing kendama longer than Sweets himself and is one of the first players to bring kendama to the US. (straight from 2008) He's the founder of GAWDS, a premiere rollerblading brand, and has been constantly pushing blading forward for years. During our Unlimited Miles road trip we asked Boo Johnson who should be next on the Mob. We fully expected him to name a skateboarder but instead went with his old Long Beach neighbor Franky. Kendama Connects Worlds in the most surprising ways!
Kendama -
Reece Wilson - Reece has been jamming kendama for a while, and we are so excited to officially have him as part of the squad. A downhill mountain bike world champ, Reece is always fully sending it into whatever he does. We have seen him introduce kendama to countless people on his MTB journeys and through the Red Bull TV documentary Going In. He was even our European distributor for a while. If you follow the DH MTB world you are probably seeing Reece's name pop up more and more in the winners circle, and if you follow dama he is someone worth checking out asap!

Juiccy Jokerr - arrett Mckenzie aka Juiccy Jokerr is the newest member of the Sweets Mob!
Juiccy is a pro snowboarder who we have known for a few years. His passion for everything he does is unmatched and we have loved watching his progression with kendama. His Instagram is constantly filled with bangers on and off the mountain.
"As an avid skateboarder and snowboarder for over 18 years, my whole life has revolved around learning new things. Progression is always at the forefront of my agenda, and with kendama, I can keep that fire burning."

David Gravette - David Gravette is a professional skateboarder and avid fisherman. This Signature Model obviously takes more inspiration from one on those things than the other.

Hobie Doan - We are proud to welcome Hobie Doan to the Sweets Mob with his first Signature Mod! Hobie started jamming kendama a few years back and we saw him connect to the game immediately. Seeing footage of him teach kendama to others all around the world made him an obvious choice for the team. We knew he needed to become an official member of the family. Reigning from Southern Oregon, USA, Hobie spent his life riding BMX and trying to level up in every way possible. His daily grind is more than admirable and constantly motivates us in the office to do the most.
