Yeah it was pretty fun. I just went yesterday. It was my first juggling festival. Did some clubs, diabolo, and unicycling. They had unicycle tug of war and unicycle baskeball. There was a crazy chick who did spins on her unicycle the same way figure skaters do. It was different from footbag events. People stand by themselves and juggle rather than in groups and the main event is a performance rather than competition. Bryan came out. We left you a message but figured you were away for the weekend.

He and I were asked to do a performance for the evening show. I scribbled out a short demo plan an hour before. I talked about components (stalls, dexes, ducks, spins) while Bryan demonstrated. He did with some 2-bag juggling, shred and a superfly as a big finish. The crowd loved it.

Next year we should coordinate with the event organizer. Maybe have a 4-square workshop. Having footbag as part of the event would be cool too.
