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

val, you make it sound like i pumped them for info without them knowing - i think i was pretty clear in telling them i was making a list and was feeling a bit stuck at the time...

in fact neither of them gave me any tricks that i didn't already have written down, both preferred to talk about what they were working on, and both times what i got more from the conversation was discussion about practise sessions and work. for which i am truly grateful thanks guys

so

(won't post it now in a fit of pique )

oooooow my neck hurts from too much looking up....

but i have a pretty solid couple of 423 variations, a much more solid half shower, a wierd start for an inverse 4s fountain, 9 catches of a reverse antti cascade (with the snaked stop), much cleaner multiplexing, a 441 (1btb) transfer from cascade to reverse, a better kick up into a shower than before, some nearly club juggling staff juggling, including a reverse backcrossed 2 in a 423, an entertainingly high 531,

and some more that worked once or twice but not enough.

amazing what an hour with a high roof can do.

a fountain is the standard 4 object pattern. basically both left and right hands doing 2 in one hand, doing shower throws.

the wierd start has no pumping. two staffs start on the ground, leaning on me. its easier than starting with two in one hand. but odd.... and doubly hard for me, cause i never practised a left handed shower.

i might be at circus soc, depends. cause i'll only just be back from holland, and sleepy....

neck better after doing not much

hey tim, good to see you yesterday, sorry my juggling was so bad must warm up more better, and even more so, arrive on time!

was also thinking about something sam said - putting club handles on the ends of the staffs, so they can be easier to multiplex and also have end work possible... whatcha reckon?

hugs
