5 Ball Lift Bouncing: A Tutorial

[elpapafiasco]

Thanks for this tutorial ! I used it to learn the 5ball bounce routine ! Thanks !!

[LucidinAcoustic]

great video, love your tutorials!

[sacramentoskip]

I bought Mr. Babche turbo balls; they are superb! Large too.

[balia1969]

One of the best juggle turorials I have ever seen! And it was true in my case: Once you master the 4 ball pattern, it will only take a week or slightly more to learn the five ball lift bounce.

[jlspma]

Hey Chris one question.

Is bounce juggling bad for a bad back? =)

[MrJugglr]

Man i would love to get into this but man, those silicone balls are so pricey.... oh well ill get over it eventually...

[athensiscool]

I must say you are a wonderful teacher I love all the videos I have seen so far. Just one question where would I buy some of these balls you are using... rite now i am using tennis balls which kind of fail. So if you could get back to me with that info i would be very thankful. =]

[kurrygrodan]

hi I just can't seem to get the 4 ball part... isn't it possible to juggle 4 balls like the3 ball pattern but 4 inte the same pattern but not bouncing 2 balls at the same time? got any advice? I really wanna learn this...

[UrbanJuggle]

right,left,left,right,right Ect.

[houdinismansion]

You have a great abililty for teaching. I hope you share more. It's wonderful the way you break it down to a learning structure. Juggle on!

[magic7123456]

Please make a tutorials about spinning plates and rings. PLEASE.

[fnivern]

Hey, I can do 5 bouncing balls for 10-20 catches.

But I have no idea how to bounce 4 balls, so can you please make a tutorial for 4 ball lift bounsing to?

btw. Thanks for this and all the other juggling-tutorials you have made.

you have learned me a lot.

Have a nice day chris :D

[TheDuckOfOz]

do you think this would work on a board kinda thing , like maybe a piece of countertop or something ? Thanks

[ctjuggles]

Yeah, it would. Try putting two pieces of plywood together with screws so that it is double thick. Pat Maguire does this.

[TheDuckOfOz]

will try that . Thank You

[chazmagic1]

I bought 7 of the turbo bounce balls and they are great. Its always tough to buy stuff not knowing about their quailty, but they are great.

[TheDonk12]

I use the turbo bounce balls as well, and I agree. I have tried silicones, and they are good too, but I was already used to the turbos and actually liked them better. I can't stop bouncing!

[ctjuggles]

Yes, I know Mark Nizer. Sadly, we do not have a club in this area!

[monroemcnary]

What brand of balls are you using?

[ctjuggles]

Dube.

[TheDonk12]

Hey there from Charlottesville, just down the road! Love all of your tutorials and other vids. I've been trying to learn the 5-ball force bounce, any chance you might do a tutorial on that sometime??? Thanks, and I've already learned a ton from you!

[ctjuggles]

Uh, yeah,... I can't do a force bounce. Do you go to the club in C'ville?

[TheDonk12]

Yeah, the Air Raid Juggling Club - I just joined recently - we are in a parade today, haha! Just started juggling 3 months ago and am totally hooked. Doesn't seem like there's too many bouncers in our club, but I can probably get some tips from Mark Nizer, not sure if you've heard of him, but he's pretty well known I think. If you're ever bored and wanna drive an hour and half, you should come out, though I'm sure you have your own juggling club. Talk to you later.

[manuel886202]

Nice tutorial!!

4 ball drill = 552

[huhy888]

i have mr babache turbo balls much cheaper than silicones and better bounce pity i have no where good to practice

[anjahenseler]

I practice at the Skateboard track! The conrete ther is véry smooth. Better than the basketball court. That's too wobbly.

[HUNTYFM]

Hey CT,

Gotta a question,

How do you hang your clubs on your wall?

Thanks

Great Video By The Way 5 Stars!!

[ctjuggles]

Go and buy some hooks used for hanging coats. Mount them SIDEWAYS and the club slips in without getting damaged at all.

[HUNTYFM]

kool lol

[anjahenseler]

I made a rack with large nails. Between two nails you can hang 2 or three clubs.

[RabbitDance]

Would the normal sidewalk eat up the balls?

[ctjuggles]

Yes, sadly.

[RabbitDance]

Have you ever heard of Fakini balls? They are magician's props, which are made of silicone, and are bouncy. Have you tried these props? If so how do they compare to dube? If not, thanks for reading anyways.

[ctjuggles]

Not heard of these, so I cannot compare.

[ijuggle42]

i love these little help video's....thanks

[thegoheads]

again, it's so cool that you continue to make these free online lessons. Very detailed and well explained from start to finish!!! *****

I still struggle with a solid 5ball bounced cascade, I need to make some fabric barriers like you mentioned so I can practice more without running a marathon...

[JugglingStein]

How much do balls like that cost?

[ctjuggles]

$30+ U.S. each. Very pricy, but they last forever....

[JugglingJoe1026]

Awesome stuff. Maybe I'll decide to learn bounce juggling.

Kind of random, but what kind of clubs do you have?

[DJKennyTheJuggler]

Bravo ! Your tutorials are great. I am now inspired to place bounce juggling on my list of things to do - knowing I will return to your great tutorial. Keep em up. I am one of MANY who love them.

[kzSoUlFaThEr]

I recently asked at a convention about silicon balls man and was knocked back by the price of them....something like 40 euros per ball....for 5 that's 200 ueros man....I can get 50 normal beanbags for the same price.

Excellent tutorial man, you just do these tuts so well man :) biggest success on it is how Slow you speak to accomodate those who do not speak english well!! Good lookin out

[ctjuggles]

Oh, wow! Thanks for telling me this. I really DO need to keep the slow speech piece in mind. Thanks, Tim.

[pwe5000]

nice tutorial chris! What size silicones do you use?

[ctjuggles]

3" from Dube.

[JugglingStein]

Great tutorial!

I also like the fact that you say that one needs to practise!

I always get alot of questions from people wanting to know some secret little excercise that will make it soo much easier to reach the desired number of balls (or master the trick), when you always have to practise alot anyway!

[ctjuggles]

Yeah, you know I get that a LOT too.

[eMretsiM]

Great tutorial. You make it look so easy!

[pbjballa]

Nice tutorial, very well explained. I agree with you about lacrosse balls, they are for Force bounce juggling only. Ill have to post a video regarding force bounce juggling soon.

Thanks again man!

[ctjuggles]

Excellent. Be sure you tell Eric Surf (ericsurf6). He asked for one.

[AndreasHallem]

good tutorial!!

[ricardotraceur]

nice tutorial !

[Femanadle]

Choose: bounce juggling or normal toss juggling?

[ctjuggles]

As far as which I LIKE most? Toss, easily.

[Femanadle]

Is it easier do 5 ball bouncing than normal?

[ctjuggles]

Normal toss juggling? YES. Easily.

[theGEEKS8]

thank you finally a 5 ball bounce tutorial thanks!!!!

[toni424]

Thanks, ct. This was a great tutorial, as always. I haven't done much with bounce juggling yet... but I'll have this video on repeat when I do, for sure :D

[TheOmnipotentJuggler]

Is there anything you can't do? Crazy! Thanks a lot, cleared up some questions I had. I don't know why it never occurred to me that lacrosse balls might be why I can't do lift bouncing... so simple!! :D Thanks again! :D

[vandrizzle]

perfect i just got bounce balls

[ctjuggles]

Cool! Timing is everything.

[ericsurf6]

Very nice Chris! How about a 5 ball force bounce tutorial? I can't get past about

the 8th throw and catch.

[ctjuggles]

I can't do it. Period. Can you show ME how to get 8 catches?

[ericsurf6]

Sure, I can show you how to get to 8 catches, but that's it...can't seem to get past it...

...Anybody else here have any "how to" advice on learning the 5 ball force bounce?

[ctjuggles]

I think pbjalla is going to do one.

[ericsurf6]

That would be nice.  I`ll go over to his channel and hit him up.
