Clubs, balls, diabolos and contact.

you're there already? that's badf*ckinass
as is that combo.
instead of help i offer encouragement...

rob got me into linking up 4b siteswaps

the best combo i've done is (4)53453474414747123(4).

a big long number, but fairly easy compared to your one.

it has a left handed 7 in it which i don't like and can't really do with any consistency yet but cunningly the 441 underneath it is easy to sketch on timing to compensate

have you tried having a 4b session with 534 as your base pattern?
i did it for about an hour and it completely did my head in - but just that one session taught me loads - and when i'm juggling a fountain now, i can stick a 534 in before or after quite a few of my tricks.
still did my head in though

744744 is hardcore, 9444494444 is getting on to unbelieveable and b444444b444444 is reserved for people with surnames like beever or bone.
or dietz.
and here i am - i still can't juggle a bloody inverse cascade!

i've been resting my right hand since wednesday (tendonitis twinges ) which means left handed juggling all the way.
mainly sorting out 3 in 1 hand as its pretty solid in my right already and if my left catches up, i should be well on the way to 6b happiness.
just for the extra challenge i've been having a go at sticking in one round of 804060 every now and then (though i don't think i'm quite ready for that really - only caught it once in 2 days!).
this place is cool by the way.

this weekend, the plan is for lots of dizzyness - 2up pirouettes from 2 in 1 hand and 3 in 1 hand.

but you're so right - i do need more practice...


so why the f*ck am i not in carvin?!!???!


nyc hit the nail on the head - i suck.

wow wow wow

what the f*ck is going on.

I have never seen so much stuff.

a trick a day. more like a trick an hour.

clubs, balls, diabolo, passing and stealing (cor my god there are some f*cking good people here) and the workshops have not even started yet. and I have atleast 10 new tricks with stuff. to much to think of at the moment.

firts workshop is at 10am so me going to bed now.

chat soon

you dont know what you are missing out on.

P.S. hehehehe hahahahaha.

my head, it hurts.

cant take it all in.

to much juggle, juggle and pritty patterns make martin go lala.

the one thing I want to get now is

from 3b mills, with a kick up in to 4b mills.
I am so close to it.

after that I think I'll start the real work on my 5b mills.

cos as you all know mills is where it is all at.

seal, you hurt my head!

it only hurts cos you are trying to fight it.

trust me and watch the pritty patterens.

lol, i did and that hurt my head even more, no man, nor beast nor anything should be abel to make balls jump like that!

its the shrooms, they made me do it!!!

I hane been workiing on a 3b trick.
placing one ball on my foot, and picking it up with the other hand.
so now I am off to try it with 4 balls.

[evil voice]
you will be mine, oh yes you will all be mine.

see ya soon.

i have talked to flynts, and she has proimised that by the end of this week, ill be able to juggle

rings (2/3)
coloums (which i can already sort of do)
three ball tennis
three ball multi plex
outside three ball cascase, and more stuff

so hopefully i will be able to juggle lots when i hot uk shores!

i am working on getting a really solid three ball core going atm, like changing juggle hight, size, and width, does that make sence?

ps ring suisides, when you are juggling rings, then shove your head throught the ring so its round your neck, to finish the juggle!

is there anyway of making it not hurt while im learning!???

ps

fond this juggling sim

hope it could be useful, if not to you or cole, then to some one!

rings are wicked - there is a standard trick called pulldowns where you stop juggling by putting each ring over your head as you catch it.

this is really good if you can throw your last ring pancake (so they flip rather than spin) and catch that on your head as you have been doing

as for protection while you practice, i'd recommend a balaclava - you'd look a bit like a juggling terrorist but that could turn out to be a good niche...

Do any of you clubbers (juggling that is ) own a set of fire clubs, as i would be very interested in seeing sum pics before i commit to purchasing a set.

(ignore the rubish ones)

you want photos of people juggling with fire clubs or just images of the clubs themselves (if you are thinking of making some or want to know which are the good ones)?

cole cole cole cole!

i can juggle clubs!

oh yes i will be like you soon cole! oh yes!!!!

manily thought, not so tall, thin, or good!? :S

anyways, im going to start learning bounce juggling, do you have anything that can help me?

cheers guys!

i have the best dvd around for bounce juggling - its called 'bouncing in paris' and has enough on it to keep you occupied for years

will lend ya it when you get back if you like?

i can teach you 3b bouce basic though - i learnt them a few weeks ago but gave up again cos i don't have anywhere to juggle that's got a floor for bouncing

i have some balls, *bounce balls* i bought some, so the next time i come to spitz, wanna have a play, i can kind of do the three ball cascade for bounce juggling, but im just a lil unsure of the plane controll i have!

but yeah, some play time would be cool pls mr c

cor, I am sorry guys.
I have not posted on here for a while.

Have been out of London.
Now I am back.

got this new 5b trick, it is a multiplex with a 4,5 split.
first you need to get this one, its not that hard if you can do 4b's. then this should be a brrrrrreeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz
start with 3 in your right 2 in left. throw a single ball from your right at a 5 hight. then with you left throw both balls in a 4,5 split
(one ball goes straight up and back to the same hand and the other goes slightley higher, and to the opp side)
now carry on throwing a 4,5 split.

now this is a nice trick top play with. I have been doing it as a windmill. once you got it both ways, you can have a nice mills mess out of it.
if you want more came and see me at spitz this week.

"if you want more came and see me at spitz this week."

i will

last night in my room i caught 64 out of 5 cascade.
my room is low; it was real fast.

that [54] split thing - is that not gatto multiplexes?
the full trick is [54]24 i think?

put gatto multiplexes into mills and have a look on a simulator - its very pretty.
i expect to see it for real later

waaargh now i will practise all the giligan multiplexes i am starting to remember from the european juggling oddyssey.....

maybe.

incidentally the 54] split is a really nice and straightforward way back into the cascade... and practising that really makes you get the split right cause you have to get a ball inbetween......

744(two rounds) last night....
R

Martin, that sounds like Gatto's indeed. Try [6x6]3 as a multiplex, it's fairly easy and looks good. I'm currently trying to work out a [8x8]333 multiplex thingy. I'll probably do [6x6]3 in my extensive 5b warm up before trying to tackle 74635 and B171. Incidentally Martin u can also do a hi-lo gatto's multiplex which goes perfectly into 744. Cole - how about i show u and u work out the numbers??!!

As for the bouncing, Bouncing in Paris is excellent, i learnt the majority of the stuff i know from watching that. It rocks.

Almost got 753 solid now...if only i could get 97531 solid!!

this is all the stuff that he didn't think he had tight enough to put on video #10

this video, despite the title, has tonnes of new, unbelievably hard tricks that
no-one else does.
example: 4-up, 2-stage double pirouette into 6337531 mills continuing with 633 mills

originality at this level of technical juggling is an extremely rare thing.

honestly, sometimes dietz makes me want to cry he's so good.

i saw this earlier...and its effing amazing.



I cant wait for #10!!

*shakes head* come on cole i can do all those and more!

god you mean you cant do them, and you say your a juggler, next youll tell me you dont know how to bounce juggle properly!

Mech.. I would expect Hexagonic to say he is having difficulty on a 4b bounce mills mess. I bet two balls keep hitting.

@ those in thw know.

Then again...im still having trouble on my 4b mells miss upwards.... let alone downwards!

im having a prob will four balls bounce mills, i only have three, and its bloody hard to make your ball split into two!

have you tried using an Axe?

4b mills is really really really hard.

until you watch that video and you realise its just part of the basics...

off to juggle now
