Forums > Advanced Staff moves > advanced staff juggling ... let�s go mad !!

I think its time to restart the staff juggling thread in the advanced forum.

Since quite a few ideas were mentioned in the old thread that don`t seem to really fit in a beginners section.

I would really appreciate if people would post there ideas.
But do me a favor and make a distinction between claiming
to really have a move and random ideas.
it will help reduce misunderstandings

And it will give us a better over view where people are.

To get you started :
I was playing around with a lot of 531522 variations

one is (i think) quite interesting
you know the one throw were you throw a staff as a waist cross and catch it with the other hand on the opposite side of the waist
use it as the 3
it is fun

'There are two mantras in life, yum and yuk. I choose yum.'

right, i just thought you can move whole threads to the new part... anyway.

yo tim:
i am mostly wearing a kilt -male clothing
but anyway i love skirts, since ever, they are so compftable to wear, specially in summer times -you should take a look at my golden dress

hey rob:
new staff: hm my old ones are not suitable for stage anymore. i still can�t find a propper solution, so the staff doesn�t push through the soft-cover-ends....so i had to tape them for 531 festival -looked a bit [censored]

hmmm first i don�t like half way working design -i studied product design so i should find a solution

anyway, first the staff breaks through, than the "head" gets loose, and than lego-techniques are so much harder to play...

in the moment i am on similar trip: plugs and a kind of plastic the internettranslator doesn�t find an english word for
lets see how lond it will last

mynci: good idea, i am searching since ages for such a rubber-push-pin-thing, couldn�t find it so far...any ideas where to look ?

mmm. except i made mine attach very securely with innovative tape cutting techniques

so the end is crap, but its not going anywhere. i did got the other end wrong, so need to buy some more poles for lego work. i can't wait to play. can we make a juggly-legoey-geeky show, bastl?

try a furniture or hardware store, you can find things like rubber feet for tables etc for wood floors
OR take a craft knife to a rubber ball

All my props have been nicked so any advice on size and weight for making new juggling staffs will be appreciated :cry:

that's pants!

For juggling people seem to favour something smaller, with reasonably weighted ends... as far as I can tell

I'm not sure if I should just make some practice ones for now, lights and soft my fire ones were nice if a little awkward. I'm gonna give it some thought





yo dude

i love my just practice staffs...so much better than this fire staffs which are banned to downsstairs in the garage..for various reasons:



healthiness: matt from tirasaru tested out that the level of particulate matter in his cuboard with all his fire toys in, is the same as on the high way in austria



he strongly recommends not to have ANY fire toys inside your living area....



so even for training its much nicer to have separate staffs, also they are not dirty, don�t stink, and are much easier to transport into traininghalls etc...

even it�s nice to somethimes eat anything during training without being disgust by the colour of your fingers



even 3 staffs techniques:

they just take ages to train BEFORE firetraining starts at all ..it has some quality to it, to have to train your technique until it�s reached a certain level. and than transfer the technique to freshly build fire staffs = enter next level.



in generall, i would recommend to make yourself cozy, soft cover ends and thick grip bands..makes everything easier...but be aware that most fire staffs aren�t like that

cheers dude I think I'll go with that.

hey, Lee - just thinking about your bad back - you should make some uber light ones. Mine have done wonders for my shoulders and back, and actually make me want to practise more.

i'll put the design on when i'm not on my way out the door.

Cheers dude although my back has been much better since the chiropractor

mills mess.

anttis funny cascade with the poncey arms.

dips.

total random juggling. aaaaaaaahahahahahaha

double pirouettes

2up pirouettes. and caught 2 of three in a 3 up (tried it loads badly too, though)

the 3 staff millsmess was great want to see a 5staff version soon though



any idea what that would mean such things as a pattern about 4 metres broad and 5,5 metres high...quite a lot of feet work todo...next to the fact it�s an 5 object pattern....

but why is a 5 staff mills soo much better than a 3 staff ?
-just because its harder?
