    Hello DS! I recently recieved my new dama [Craft 2.0 in ash] in the mail, my second one so I'm pretty new to all of this.

    I got my tama pretty soft and moist from sitting with it in my hands, and I was thinking..
    Would the hard impacts from lighthouse flips and the like have any negative effect on the tama since I'm still breaking it in? Or is it actually a good thing?

    its a good thing!! especially on a natty wood tama like that. the micro bumps and textures allow for optimum grippage

    That is just the process of breaking it in. If you sweat a lot rub that sweat around the outside of the bevel for ultimate max volume level 13 slayage for days.
