Steven Bach Pro Model 3.0 - Shinaji 2.0 (Available February 20th)

STEVEN BACH PRO MODEL 3.0

#BachMod3

The BachMod 3.0 builds on Steven Bach’s signature setup with a focus on refined balance, durability, and progression. The spliced sarado combines maple and purpleheart with a bamboo-centered core, adding stability for lunar tricks while remaining light and responsive for gun slingers. Finished with an unsanded maple ken for optimal grip and control.

This model features the Shinaji 2.0 Hollowcore ken with a bamboo core plug, allowing for new trick possibilities while preserving prime lunar balance. Artwork details include a badminton birdie in the small cup and a silhouette of Steven in the big cup, reflecting his passion beyond kendama.

The tama carries over the signature yellow and blue color scheme and splice theme, constructed with maple on top, bamboo in the middle, and beech on the bottom. Finished with Antiskid Matte 2.0 paint, a crushed bevel, and 25mm bevel hole, the BachMod 3.0 is tuned for consistency and control.

ANTISKID MATTE 2.0

An upgraded factory-applied clear non-slip paint, designed for maximum grip and control. Water-based and environmentally sustainable, it provides a smooth, durable finish that enhances tracking, reduces slipping, and maintains the natural feel of the wood.

HIGGS FERMION CLEAR

Higgs Kendama's Fermion Clear is built for players chasing pure control and a clean, connected feel. Engineered for consistent grip without ever feeling sticky or rubbery, it delivers the perfect in-between balance — tacky enough to lock in stalled lunars and late flips, yet smooth enough for fast juggles, taps, and technical flow.
