Juggling isn't useless, It just isn't useful.

Humm,

yeah, that's exactly what i was saying dub.
all the burke's variations and fake mills are 423's with arm crosses.

last night i played with 3 balls.

i learnt:
423 with 4's (and 2's) cradled (aka fork catches) - cheers will
423 clawed with juggled 2's (aka 'fastest trick in the world')
got the cascade over the shoulder running for 3 beats on both sides [reverse backcross-lazy catch-reverse backcross]
and out of nowhere, 3 catches of bth cascade

back of the hands cascade is not much of a problem (although my left hand cradle still feels sketchy).
can't do mills on the backs of my hands but i don't think i can be bothered to learn it either - not really my thing.

but by 'bth' i actually meant 'behind the head'

juggled 2's:

the easiest way to juggle a 2 is to simply 'pop' it - literally just open your hand quickly so that the ball raises about an inch off of you palm and drops back.
with a claw, this basically turns into you opening your hand and reclawing the ball.

learn 423 with this extra 'throw' so that you hear all of your catches, evenly spaced.

to get 423 to go really fast:
do 423 clawed and try to keep the balls each in their own column.
reduce the 4 to as low as you can manage.
juggle the 2.

i got lots of ideas from this wicked video.



bth cascade is nowhere near as solid as that bloke yet - but he can juggle seven balls so i've obviously got catching up to do in general.



check out the cross arm box by the other guy (he's the one that does a few throws of 'proper' 3c reverse backrosses on there too).

i learnt a lovely new triplex from the nice man in oddballs. Back of the hand cascade tho my left hand is a bit dodgy and back of the hand tennis, left hand even more dodgy with that one

I havent practiced in the last two weeks coz i've been skiing and dogsledding and making snowmen in Norway, but im reunited with my juggling balls and very happy indeed lots more practice to come!

Aim high and you'll know your limits, aim low and you'll never know how high you could have climbed.

Apologies. does anyone have the number of Alex who does the concessions for Synergy? Please PM or text it to me if so.
Thanks!

Martin and I did 9 clubs last night.

Didn't get very far, but it is a start...

ah wah wah wah a wah wah

We can do 9 clubs will, Im shure.....

from 3b

fork catch one ball with other held. throw and catch the fork catch (to the same hand) so that the ball ontop of the fingers is caught and the one originaly held is now on the fork. Throw the held ball across as the 3 to be caught on what was the 2's hands' fingers. Repeat till drop.

Cole i've got a 441 variation to show you...there's a 0 in there somewhere...i'll show u later and u can tell me what the numbers are

ah wah wah wah a wah wah
