    Simply the best juggling ever: [video=youtube;HLBGCBxG8Gs]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLBGCBxG8Gs[/video] Had an epic session at juggling club yesterday. Qualified an 8 ball half shower, so now I've done 8 balls in 3 different ways and made 12 catches of 10 balls. :thumb:

    i just got new juggling balls a month ago :D. i got 5 sil-x balls 78mm. best juggling equipment ive ever used, perfect for stalls, no wobble through the air, good weight, what else do you need? im not super advanced into juggling, but i can do all basics and intermediate for 3 ball (well in my definition of intermediate of course...) and i can 5 ball flash.

    lol you can't run out of tricks to learn. You can probably find most/all of these on Youtube: Tricks Boston mess Overheads (and you can do basically any pattern in overheads too) Underleg (same hand, same leg) Underleg (opposite leg) Underleg (catch, rather than throw) Underleg (catch, opposite leg) Backcross Frontcross (opposite of a backcross) Shoulder throw Reverse shoulder throw Box Extended box Advanced box Knee bounces Foot stalls Shuffle (lol there are loads of shuffles and shuffle variations) Rubinstein's revenge Burke's barrage Charlie's cheat Romeo's revenge Slams Statue of liberty Machine Fast machine Siteswaps - You can do all these siteswaps in mill's mess, boston mess and change any of the throws into any body throw too. These are all 3 ball siteswaps. 12345 522 423 4413 5511 7131 (hi-lo shower) 6060 (3 in one hand) Just a few tricks from the top of my head that are not super hard. You won't run out of tricks. I do literally hundreds of tricks with just 3 balls and I still feel like I know nothing.

    I'm not an acrobat, I'm a juggler. Some jugglers do acrobatics, but I'm not one of them. ;) I do some other stuff though - Combo tricks and rola bola, tightwire, devilstick, diabolo and ball spinning.

    backflips arent too hard to learn with a bit of coaching and a bit of time spent at the gym or you could do what i did and just try it and hope you land at least on your knees :P

Quality juggling balls are only really important when you start learning 5. [QUOTE=LightSpinner wrote: Now just get your hands on some flaming chainsaws and BOOM profit from getting into cirque de soleil
    You really think Cirque hire jugglers who do flaming chainsaws? They only hire jugglers with amazing juggling + acrobatics (unless you're literally a top 20 juggler, then you can get away without acrobatics). One of my friends actually auditioned successfully for Cirque. There was more acrobatics in his audition than juggling and he was auditioning as a juggler!

    Backcrosses will be very hard with a jacket like that on! Oh and they are very hard anyway. A very very difficult trick, but wonderful when you learn it. Well worth the practice! Good stuff. :thumb:
