yeah Moschen invented contact

Cool :D

Wait, that's Moshen's hands in Labrynth? I never knew that. That's awesome!

[Jestir66]

... is anyone else kinda creeped out about the shape his hand makes? i mean, its the only way to do this trick but.. i dunno..it reminds me of like a horror movie o.O ..i need sleep. aha.

In the video, I'm actually saying, "Wow, it's creepy"(in Japanese). Of course, you are not alone. LOL

if you want to see an excellent demonstration of this, watch the movie "labrynth" with david bowie. bowie does this move with crystal balls. seriously, check it out.

David Bowie = hands of Michael Moschen :)

[dalbyonemanband]

i didn't know that. i'll have to check that guy out.

All right, guys, I will upload a freaking amazing demonstration of palm-spinning later, which one of my friends showed me years ago. There are two ways of doing the 3 ball spinning. With balls touching each other is a really easy way, but not that interesting. You will SEE what I mean when I put the thing here. Stay tuned!

you do it so weird! i am used to kind of squeezing the balls together, it seems much easier as the top ball is less likely to fall. Of course, I don't know how smooth your balls are. I used billiard balls for palm spinning, but kind of gave it up because there doesn't seem to be a whole lot you can do with it. And contact is not as fun as normal toss juggling, IMO.

[MGZolyn]

that's so hard!

[knsmr]

No, no, this is relatively easy. 4 ball pyramid is much much easier than 3 ball spinning, which I still can't do smoothly. I gave it up for the sake of my wrist's health.

I read the same thing in a book called "the Mahematics of Juggling"

Facinating and interesting stuff.

thanks for the cool demo.

[knsmr]

Yeah, that's the book I'm reading. It's full of amazing stuff. Did you notice that there are many good web site where you can take a look at nice animations of N-body problem?

[RabbitDance]

Cool. That sounds like a neat book. Thanks guys!

[HUNTYFM]

lol the point of tht vid is....?

[knsmr]

Isn't it such a pointless demonstration? LOL

I actually filmed this a couple of years ago, and lately noticed the tomato is spinning so fast. There's some math behind it.

[knsmr]

I wrote a summary of the theory behind it, but my blog entry is Japanese.
