I'm averaging 5 catches of 3 in one hand, what can I do to improve this except practice? are there any tricks or tips anyone can give?
Try throwing them higher. Also i find with three in one it really helps if you move your hand horizontally inwards between catching and throwing.

and I can do (6,4)(2,4)(4,6)(4,2) solidly. It feels lovely to do.
do you mean (6, 4x) (2x, 4) (4x, 6) (4, 2x)
On wednesday night, i managed to get a few throws of 5 ball half shower, but instead of the 6x's thrown over the top, the 4x's are thrown over the top. So a full half shower...
also saw jonnny UCOF looking like this

It's definitely (6,4)(2,4)(4,6)(4,2), there's no crossing throws. The simulation looks boring, but it feels nice to juggle I reckon. Like a slower, fewer balled (6x,4)(4,6x). Should be fairly easy for you to run.

my 4b fountain is now pretty solid, bout 50+ catches. 1 run of 4b mills before getting all excited that it was working then dropping them all. 5b flashes are getting better and when actually trying to juggle 5 i'm getting about 4 catches, loooong way to go but i only started attempting 5 tonight so not too bad methinks also 3 club mills is nearly there, i have been neglecting my clubs of late as my room is teeny and its damn cold outside!

5 ball rubenstiens, by stacking both the swirly rubensteins balls.
Does that count as five ball rubensteins or is it just a girly cop-out?

Yeah, I thought as much. It'll still impress non-jugglers though. Hell, a cascade will impress non-jugglers! I don't tend to have dreams about juggling. I only dream about tricking. Weird.

Will:  Today, I found myself doing 4 ball takeouts without practising them before..... which was nice..  Uber Seal says I am the only other person, other than him, that he has seen do it. *sticks chest out proudly* Its a lovely trick both to watch and to do. Please learn it  and I have also been practising my 4 ball high low showers for about a week now and its getting solider every day.  and its Spitz tonight!!

Is takeouts the same as Burkes barrage?
If so, I can do 4 ball burkes.

I'm learning to juggle three balls at the moment, thanks to Mr Lemonkey... So far I can manage: 3b: Half shower 'tennis' or whatever it's called, Columns Plus adding in all the chest rolls, armrolls, head/cradle catches that I could already do... Up to six ball or six ring passing I got a long way to go yet...

Currently not really working on anything new, but a mate showed me a couple of little things which are good for learning control so I'm practising those, and also trying to get my throws much more consistent.

I just learnt three ball romeo's revenge... well i think I did. I can't seem to find any videos on the internet of it that actually work. Could someone please give me a link.
Also I managed yesterday to do 74 catches of 5 ball, but I have to wait a couple of days before i try 5 ball again or i cant juggle it at all. I havent got a clue why.
Then again, I do have too much time on my hands being a thirteen year old.

Thanks Lemonky.
Im definately not juggling any of those patterns. Mine doesnt look anything like a rubensteins revenge, which those patterns do. I'm confused. I learnt it from Charlie Dancey's Encyclopaedia of Ball juggling, the edition where romeo's revenge was first added. Could you help me work out whats wrong!?
Edit: I want to get it right for tomorrow, im going to a convention in notts. I wasnt sure if a thirteen year old doing 4b mills mess would be impressive enough.

I havent been yet hexagonic; its between 2 and 10 at notts university, and im going at three.
Also, back on the topic of romeos revenge, is it meant to look like a chop to the right before throwing from the chop in claw, then chopping on the right again and doing a little flourishy thing similar to burkes barrage, then you repeat it on the other side? I've got an hour to find out! The thing that I listed above ive got solid, well over 100 catches. Not bad to say I learnt it yesterday. But is it even right!?
Edit: did the pattern I just desribed make sense to anyone?
EditEdit: does anyone know wher i can find a video for a shower explosions?

I saw that kid at bristol doing 5, he was awesome! his mate could do four and they were passing clubs at one point. He was about 6 but it was quite gratifying that he came up to me and asked me to show him some 3b tricks coz he didnt know many  bless!
