I just got seven 2-5/8" ultraleather juggling balls from www.sportjugglingco.com. They are really good. My last unltraleather balls were 2-1/2" GBallz. The difference is mainly in, well the size, but really more in the way their made. The GBallz are 4 panel (although, I think they make a 6-panel one now). The Sport Juggling balls […]

I just made 80 catches of 4 clubs in singles.
I have a wall in the basement with a bunch of black marks on it from the ends of my clubs hitting it. I try to buy white-ended clubs now because they don’t leave marks. BUT… if you just get Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, they clean […]

Just got my next set of clubs as I try to find the perfect ones. I got 6 "Henry’s Delphins" clubs from Air Traffic Kites and Games. They’re made in Germany.
These clubs were a surprise! So, I read that a lot of people use them for practice. They’re cheap ($20/ea.) but they’re also pretty […]

I’ve decided. My favorite clubs are currently Todd Smith Hederons, and I’m going to agree with myself on that. I was just practicing my 3 club backcrosses. (Trying not to be so scared of my left handed throws). And the Todd Smith Europeans (same as the Hedrons, but with fancy decorations) just feel great. Their […]

Just received my new set of Ultra Leather "Elite Series" beanbags from Gballz. They are black, 2.75" @ 125g, got 7 of them. They feel really nice. They seem like they need to be broken in a bit, seem a little stiff, but we’ll see. I had the same feeling with brand new Ultra Suedes […]

I got my reordered "juggling glasses" in. They seemed the same, but there was a different guy there this time and he was able to adjust them to make them perfect. So I tried them out. I can look up without scrunching my nose since these are rimless and sit up really high. They don’t […]

So since I’m so obsessed with juggling right now, I actually went out and spent $300 on "juggling glasses". I have these smaller-framed glasses for my every day work (sitting at the computer) and I was always crunching my nose up while juggling to get the lenses high enough so that I could see what […]

Back to the Club Collection topic, here are some pictures…
Here are the Todd Smith Europeans. The handles are all dirty and there are plenty of scuff marks on the bodies from the knobs hitting it. These were my very first clubs, so they hit each other a lot:
Here are the Todd Smith Deluxe Elans. I […]

I received my G Ballz today from gballz.com. They are really well-made. They’re hand-made to my specifications: 2.75″, 135g, ultra suede, black & rust colors. They are really comfortable to juggle. They are very quiet when you catch them. They’re awesome. Check ‘em out!…
A high-res picture is waiting for you if you […]

Got the replacement 95mm club from Renagade today. It’s perfectly balanced with the other 4 from my set. Just a slight difference in the taping at the handle/body intersection, but you can’t tell that when you’re juggling. Quality juggling clubs and great customer service… I’m liking Renegade.
I’m going to try some 85mm’s […]
