Mobile Site Issue Fixed
A minor glitch has been fixed on the mobile site. I had heard that people could not order on their mobile phones that the website would not load the proper links to obtain access to our online store. I checked it out and now I am glad to say that I have resolved the issue. So now you are able to go on www.akokendamas.com on your iphone or droid and be able to see the full site. All with links included to go straight to the online store. Im sorry for inconvenience this issue may have caused anyone...
All and all the first day of open business went pretty well! Had more orders come in than anticipated. Which is great! And we have a bunch more pending sales. If you used the discount code "FRI13TH10" good job! If you missed the using the code, no worries we will be doing one day discount codes periodically!

Go For Green!
Dear Friends & Family,
Well the wait is finally over! AKO Kendamas is officially up for business. Right now we have our first 3 kendamas released. We have tons more customs that we are working on and will be released in limited quantities. Why limited? Because we want our kendamas to have a collectors value to them. Over saturating the market with unlimited kendamas doesn't drive people to want to obtain your product or hold any value to it. It'll just be another kendama that you can keep buying. We don't believe in that, what we believe in is small batches. Small run of customs that once run...that's it. That version will no longer be produced. There's so much we have planned, I hope you stick around and ride this kendama wave with us.
Also Tees will be up soon! I believe we have 3 designs releasing as well. My business partner Arbel and owner of AKO Apparel along with our designer Ivan will be putting those up soon. You guys will love what they've got planned on the apparel end! Gonna be exciting stuff!
Thank you for all the support alot of you have shown us, from the moment we launched the idea out and now to the product release!
Best Regards,
Chris Portacio

The Release Is Almost Here!
On Friday the 13th AKO Kendamas will release it's first set of kendamas! 3 versions will make it's debut on Friday. Our Natty, our Finished tama on Dark Stain, and our Purple Reign tama on Grey Stain! There's only a limited quantity so be sure to get your first AKO Kendama. Much like another kendama brand we also believe in the small batch theory. Adds value to our kendamas, doesn't over saturate the market and make it look like we're just here to make a buck. We value the culture of kendamas and are passionate about spreading the love for kendamas. Others see it as a trend or a fad, to us it's a lifestyle. We hope you enjoy our brand...
