Posted: We went to the circus the other day and they were spinning these ropes with bowls on the end. they were about 2 metres long, i think. It was really impressive nd we completely want to learn this. they could kick the rope up into the air. Does anyone know what this is?

Posted: did the ropes have bowls on both ends because if so these sounds like meteors. if they only had a bowl on one end they sound like a rope dart.

Posted: Almost certainly meteors. The move you describe isn't really one you can do with rope dart, and I've never heard of bowls being used with rope dart.
If it was actually a meteor hammer then I imagine you could release and kick the whole thing into the air, a variation on how sometimes people will just throw it the entire toy into the air (which always reminds me of somebody throwing pizza dough).
