The Box: Juggling Tutorial 20

[Connarhea]

Hey man brilliant video I've subbed and will be watching the rest as and when I need them. One quick thing that's non juggling related and you may have been asked a lot, yeah it's about the Link picture. Is it one printout? Loads of Squares print outs? Or hand made? It's brilliant and I'll be doing similar for my room

[thegnome54]

@Connarhea Thanks! I made the Zelda stuff by hand out of construction paper. I basically opened sprites in paint on my laptop, blew them up as big as I wanted and then used my laptop as a makeshift lightbox. It was bright enough to shine through all of the colors but black, so I traced (very gently!) the shapes to cut out with a pencil. For the black parts, I first cut the shapes out of white paper and then traced them onto black paper. All of this was taped together and glued to cardboard.

@thegnome54 ...I......I think I love you after that....This is my task for the weekend (if my capture card doesn't come) hope you've had a great christmas and new year and thank you for sharing all your knowledge be it juggling or paper craft :D

Another very useful practice tip not mentioned here, is start with two balls in one hand, throw one ball up, and throw the other ball vertically to the other hand just as the first ball drops.

It's one of the main motions of the trick, and can really help you get this down. :)

[gabrielwuzhere]

This rocks. :) thank you!

Hey Gnome adding one thing to get that as clean as possible:

practice the shower in both direction that

helped me a lot.

[poorkingz]

This is so much harder than it looks!

[LZNico]

hi, great tutorial, this is my favorite trick ( and the variations), did you know the inverted box? any plans for a tutorial, that will be nice...

[DrToadPhd]

where did you get the balls there so cool

[Cattywompus1234]

just work with two...I thought this was the easier of the 3 ball tricks.

[Vajew]

yep, this is a hard one. what gives the box its pattern is the balls keeping the exact same distance from each other through the whole pattern. well, better get started

[lizanoj]

Will do! but right now your tuts should get me busy for at least another month :D (probably more I am just being optimistic :P)

Thanks again! and keep at it! ;)

[lizanoj]

Thanks man!!

I was having a little trouble with the left side of this pattern but your training ideas made my day!

Also I wanted to thank you for all the tutorials! They have been my main source of juggling knowledge since I started like a month ago :P.

[thegnome54]

Great to hear! If you find any tricks you want a tutorial for, feel free to let me know.

[signorpaganini]

Hey congrats for your juggling, i wonder if you could make a pirouette tutorial, without balls

[jugglez88]

hope your videos get more views, your a great teacher, and there are heaps of bad videos out there with lots of views. Thanks.

[floyddango]

that link on the wall is the best thing in your vids :D:D ;-) well.. the tutorials arent that bad too

[thegnome54]

Haha, thanks! I made it out of construction paper cut into the right shapes and taped together.

[AlexDelogu]

Cheers for all your tutorials. They've helped me loads. You rock!

[TriWaZe]

sense your making tutorials again :D could you make a tutorial for the Mangham's Mangle and possibly the inverted shower also known as the waterfall if you know how to do it that is thanks your tutorials have helped a lot.

[thegnome54]

I'll try mangham's mangle sometime. I've actually got a tutorial for the waterfall completed, I'm just trying to upload it and youtube is being a little $*#@. Thanks for the requests!

[TriWaZe]

this trick is so hard to do Ive been trying to learn it for months now but my vamp is always slanted and not straight

[toomasmoore]

the thing about this trick is that it just takes a lot of time to get it good, there's not really a point when you say "i got it" just keep practicing

[TriWaZe]

I guess thats all I can do, I learned 441 but that seems to be a lot more sraight than this but owell I guess in time it will fix itself.

[thegnome54]

Yeah, it's way harder than 441 to keep going steadily. toomas is right, which is why it was a bit difficult to make a proper tutorial for this - it's all practice. The best I can really do is give you some advice on ways to practice it.

[LazyArmendariz]

That looks so cool! i'll be practicing that.
