Okies folks, here's the low-down

These are custom made juggling balls from non other than Mr. John Bagi and let me tell you they are fantastic. They just fall right in your hand and because of the materials they're easily stallable and kickable so they work well with odd catches as well as mixed with footbag.
And since they're smallish they're good for numbers.

I can't say enough good things about these balls. Below are some carefully arranged pics and one bad action shot.

If you want a set work it out with John, he'd be more than happy to meet your juggling needs.


I still think this thread should be stickied btw.

Hmm have I been up to anything useful with juggling??
I did claw shower.

Thanks a bunch for posting those pictures, James.

I've stitched about 5 sets now and everyone who plays with them REALLY can't say enough about em.

Any body want a set just pm me.
First think about how to practice or don't bother practicing.

Started juggling four balls today (been able to juggle 3 for a while, but hadn't tried 4 much)

4 ball async fountain - 11 catches

Probably would have been able to do more if it weren't for the fact I was juggling four footbags of various sizes and weights :?

Make your own juggling balls. These are pretty ingenious and easy.

Met this guy at a festival yesterday. He does this juggling/general-freestyle hybrid stuff with canes. It's pretty wild.

I've been on the same level for like two years now: I've maybe learned a few new 3-ball tricks and I'm better at 4-ball shower, but still can't do e.g. 5-ball-anything. Once in a while it starts bothering me and I give it a dozen tries, but it's (imo) so different that it'd require more intensive practising.

I want to achieve consistency and solidness in everything I can do at the moment, especially in the behind the back stuff and 4-ball shower. And I want to learn 5-ball cascade.
My military service starts on Monday, I may fill some of the freetime there with juggling. :)
