Well, seeing as we are starting to take over the
"Offical HOP "I just learnt a new move" thread", I thought we should contain this bit just to jugglerisng and the throwing and dropping of balls, clubs, rings and other miscellaneous juggling props.
Today I mothered learning 441.
I had a few throws of 531 but only 1 catch. I think my 5 is too high.
Note for the mods: I DEMAND on behalf of the jugglers on this site, as has been done with the aforementioned "Poi moves thread", that this one is made a sticky thread.
Otherwise its just favouritism really....

i spent last night at the hanger in stratford (a performance practice space) watching diz and bams sorting out their routines.
and it was excellent
i also juggled for about an hour and a half (the first 15 minutes in front of a camera too) - i smiled lots.
there was an extremely cute kitten to help me but i still feel i had one of those evenings where some things just seem to be working.
4b showers for example...
into and out of a few rounds of hi-lo showers - (71)915191519151(71)
some lovely hi-mid-lo shower throws (i caught it just the once - its fast and i'm crap at catching - but it was going up nice and solid) - (71)b17131(71)
i caught this twice (hi-lo-lo) - (71)b15151(71)
and stomped one of these (hi-lo-lo-lo) - (71)d1515151(71)
the last two were first timers for me
i also did two rounds of 7531 which i've been trying to do for *ages* - (4)75317531(4)
in a quick (15 minute) 6b session i managed 18 catches of async fountain, with me big balls (i.e. 160g ones, not silly little 50g ones)
at the end of the evening i flashed 4-in-one-hand, both left and right hands with the little balls.
then i went home with a pretty girl.
last night was a good night

Please do, i'd be very grateful.
Oh, thanks Kev
, can't watch it till i get home (crappy LSE computers) but my sister thinks it's cool. Might call on u again soon...Just remembered i got some new tricks.
On wednesday i got one round of 7531 in clubs.
On tuesday i got a new shower - from four ball shower throw up two balls as a fountain (4x4x, over the top of each other) and back into 71. Going to try and work out a five ball version

mmm.
tiny balls, high ceilings.
a lovely combination.
22 catches 91
12 catches a1
mmm.
also about 25-30 catches of (8x,6x). i find it much easier than a cascade. probly because you don't have your throws crossing each onthers patterns(did that make sense).
smilery.

i'm sure you can do the other ball to, but it seems to do nasty things to my head when i try.

Ooh, 534, hadn't even thought of trying that, what a wicked idea, thanks Hexagonic :-)

not sure which he's doing - i assumed it was the u ball...
you can start in any of the 3 positions obviously.
5 as the 1 ball doesn't look too bad - it makes the 4's the u ball - but it is an awkward throw.
5 as the open throw makes everything look very confuddled and is nowhere near as pretty as the other two i reckon.

Blimey blimey.
Will, you got a 7531. I tried that loads a while ago, and never quite got it, they were going up in a lovely shape, but I could never get back into the fountains.
But anyway, you must show me it on Tuesday. I has wanted to see that being done for ages and forever. Was the 7 a triple or a quad eh? I saw you practicing 7333, maybe I should do that, I'm sure it would help.
And 534 mills! Will wonders never cease?

7333 hurts like f*ck!
for some reason 7531 doesn't.
I also got 633 working well, but 7531 was much nicer

504 mess - martin and rob probably could just about.
its 534 mess with a ball missing innit.
patterns with gaps (0's) in are confusing at the best of times - in a mills pattern the 0 gets extra confusing since it means you only make throws from two of the three mills hand positions.

how can it be - 534 is 4b and 504 is 3b

yes will: a 4b trick with a ball missing becomes a 3b trick.

I've seen 504 mess juggled before and it looked beautiful. Can barely juggle the unmessed pattern at the mo, can't wait to get those hands crossing :-)
