3-ball: clawing mills mess. :) It feels pretty cool, needs still some practice though.
I've been playing more footbag lately, I want to get really good at it. :) I'm not leaving juggling either. Ales showed me and Riku in Frankfurt how you do the Rubinstein's Revenge, Riku got it (I think) but it was too much for me (it was already pretty late when he showed it). It looked hell of a nice though, I want to get that down. ;)

What everyone who sucks at 3-ball says! :) Just kidding, 4-ball is awesome. Have you seen Ben West rip shit up? He's the man at 4-ball.

Hell yes. I'm slowly getting better at this.

I've been practising toe stall transfers while 3ballcascading as well...I hit legover b2b x2, as well as pixie legover b2b with a huge pause in between.

OH OH OH, and toe > ss knee while 3ballcascading.

AND HOLY CRAP the part in that video where I drop it to my foot? I did a LEGOVER there once too! :D

I started trying to do footbag and juggling at the same time since Jorden's Park Session video. I got 6 alternating toe stalls without a pause -- like, just as fast as the cascading (a lot harder, and better-feeling than taking my time -- there's a real groove to it!).

I almost got cascading pixie both sides too...it's so much harder than it looks!

This is my new awesome workout :D



EDIT: That stuff is crazy, Kevin! I didn't see your post before.

Today I got cascading pixie and cascading mirage both sides. I tried ATW, but that hurts my knees too much. I also hit 5 contacts of 2-ball foot juggling on each side -- that's the first time I've done foot juggling before! I did a bunch of contacts of 2-foot, 2-bag juggling too. And I came kind of close to cascading ripwalk. This is really fun :) The foot juggling is kind of rough on my hips though.

hit a 4 ball shower and some other good 4 ball runs. Also almost had 5 ball cascade, dropped the last catch or so. I've been juggling tons lately. Super fun shiz.

You're crazy Jorden. :D

Good stuff Jorden. 7-ball is pretty hardcore. I hope you become champ someday. Footbag + Juggling in the same year. :wink:

This is an awesome resource for juggling

www.juggl.org

I've been working on 2-ball terrorist (501). It's such a fun pattern for just 2 balls. Also started practicing 5-ball cascade. I flashed 5 for the first time last night.

Just watched Jorden's 3-ball tutorial for the first time. That was pretty cool.

2 ball terriorist is cool/easy :wink: I've been thinking these past couple weeks and have realized that 3-ball is kind of lame. I mean, it's SUPER fun don't get me wrong, but most the patterns are cheesy with 3-ball, unless your Paul Mestas :D Plus, my brain won't let me do anything other than mills variations and shower variations. :evil:


I've been working 4-ball slowly but surely. I (think) I can do 4-ball mills mess, but I'm sure it's ugly.

I need to learn 5-ball cascade already. Once I learn that, I'll quit juggling. :wink: :D

I still juggle.

I can finally do a consistant mills mess, and I learned robot yay. My box is getting a lot better. Starting to do some fourball, but not consistent at all. Do any of you know if there is a 4 ball cascade. It seems like there should be, but I've never seen it on any of the juggling sites I've been to???

4-ball cascade isn't possible. Unless it's http://www.juggl.org/tricks.php?id=72 - 5-ball gap :wink:


But really, www.juggl.org is awesome! It has tons of patterns from 2-5 ball. Also, every pattern has a java animation with it, some even have little videos (including slow-mo) and descriptions. I remember finding it before but forgot the address. Thanks Dat for hooking it up :D
