Doing 55550 in a run is proving to be easier to learn than 552 for a stepping stone to learning 5 clubs. I can now qualify 55550, but still only flash 552.
Also, another thing I just read on rec.juggling that I agree with is that when practicing numbers, it can get frustrating, so it […]
Renegade Juggling just informed me they will be sending out a replacement club, and that I do not need to send back the defective one. Very customer oriented. They don’t need proof that it’s defective, they take my word for it. I love companies like that. I don’t take advantage of […]
I’m right handed, but I lead with my left. I think it comes from Tennis. I serve right handed so I’ve had a lot of practice tossing a ball up with my left hand to just the right height. I start juggling with my left hand, and I do 3 up’s, etc, […]
I broke my first club. It was one of my new Renegade 95mm. It wasn’t even a bad drop, and I’ve been way harder on my Todd Smith’s and they are still all in one piece. I think it’s just a defective dowel. There’s now a little piece of wood shaking around inside […]
A little detail I’ve picked up about how to throw a backcross:
When your arm goes behind you as you slide the club down to the end, I find that if I rotate my hand so that the thumb is “leading the motion,” then the throw from that hand is much more accurate and makes for […]
I can still only do 552 in a flash. But I’m doing 55500 in a run and that’s helping with 5 cascade timing. It’s a little too easy, actually, yet 55550 repeatedly is too hard. So, Still going to try and get good at 552, then mix it up with 55550 mid-run, […]
One of my goals is to learn the 5 club cascade. I just read on rec.juggling that someone suggested practicing siteswaps 55550, 52512 and 552 to work up to it. I’ve been doing 55550 as a flash, and sometimes a little more, but I’ve been wanting something a little easier than even that because […]
I hate it when you’re juggling balls, and you drop one, and it hits your foot (which happens to me way more times than I think should be probable), then it rolls 50 feet away and I have to go chase it down. They’re beanbags — on a drop they just fall to the […]
I’m still working on them, but I’ve discovered some good techniques. Here they are:
First, get Olga and Vova’s 1st DVD. At the beginning, Olga does 3 club backcrosses. They’re perfect.
After watching that, notice that the timing isn’t quite the same as when juggling 3 balls. With balls (for me anyway) I’ve […]
I’m still trying to find the best clubs for me. After seeing Olga and Vova at Shanty Creek earlier this year I decided to take up clubs. Up until then I had only juggled balls.
I first tried Todd Smith Europeans and they were pretty good. But I scratched them up a lot […]
