Seven Balls, Eight Months

[Roma76811]

i qualified 7 balls after three months ago :-P

[TheDoByG]

My record is 32 , and i have been practicing 7 balls for 4about 4 weeks, Is my progress slow or fast or noramal?

[Reeses2150]

@TheDoByG That's pretty fast, though it all really depends on how much your practicing. Ten minutes a day? an hour a day? more? either way that's very good progress.

[VincentCarter0]

How long does it take for a juggler to learn 7 balls (100 catches)?

[Reeses2150]

@VincentCarter0 Well some do it better than others is all I can say. I don't practice 7 very often, and my record is still only at around 40 catches or so.

[eixenful]

@VincentCarter0 Well for me it took around 2 years+, but I don't practice balls that much.

[RationalSteely]

lol does it really take that long to make 14 catches?! i could do the 7 ball flash when i first started learning/attempting 7 after only 2 hours... is there something wrong with me? :s

[Mburnett27]

@RationalSteely same, i got a qualify in the same month i went anywhere near seven. I could hardly even qualify 6.

[venom5773]

really i've been juggling for just under 5 months and i have 37 throws and catches with seven balls down. Along with 12 throws and catches of 8 balls

[aristolo1]

I agree that to qualify it in less than a year is VERY good. I've been practicing 7 balls and in 2 years I have only progressed from 10 catches to 12. I practice daily and my left shoulder is always sore. What is your record for 7 balls now 6/23/09?

[Reeses2150]

My current record with 7 balls is about 38 catches. I lost count and didn't have my camera running so I missed out on knowing what I got for sure, but I lost count at 30 and dropped more than 5 catches later.

[mesiiik]

hey dude! I believe that you´re gonna make 23 balls by 2 years! THUMBS UP ! xD

[JimboWizbo]

Sweet, I think it took me about 9 or 10 months from flash to qualify. It's a long haul but worth the effort!

[JugglingJoe1026]

Wow, I think I should work on getting as excited as you whenever I get an accomplishment, maybe then practice won't be so frustrating XD

But I'm pretty sure everybody would just look at me weird and think I was a nerd D:

Nice video btw XD

[tad4314]

great job, how's your progression with 6 coming? u hardly do anything w/ 6 balls anymore.

[Reeses2150]

I've already qualified an asynch fountain, a half shower, and got 39 catches of wimpy. I do work on it a bit, actually more often than I do with 7, but I don't really do anything worth filming.

[goedzomenno]

keep on practicing,

cause its a wonderfull trick ;)

[AdyPole]

hahahahaha! I like how at the end you jump about and scream and thn calmy walk out of the shot!

[Reeses2150]

I thought that'd be good for a few laughs.

[beffz0rn123]

Nice dude, i have to get a qualify recorded to...

[Reeses2150]

That's the key, record EVERYTHING. If you're trying something you think you'll make, get footage of it.

[lewisjmkennedy01]

awesome video man.

this video shows your progress realy well

btw nice music. lol

[Reeses2150]

Walkie Talkie Man is an awesome song. And seven balls in eight months with minimal practice isn't bad either.

[ultimatewannabe]

Very sweet, this is the best kind of video, a video of progress.

[Reeses2150]

Thanks. I really am not sure it's better than a regular music video, but hey, to each his own.

[ultimatewannabe]

Well yeah it's a subjective assessment but I still subjectively assert that this is superior.

[thegoheads]

oh wow, i just noticed your new channel icon image thing. that's awesome! i thought the only way to have a channel image was to use a still from an uploaded video.. ?

[Reeses2150]

Used to be, but you can now upload an image as your icon, so I did just that.

[3up360]

overall very cool!!!!! just alittle scepticle about the last ball in the Qulifying run did you reely catch that last ball??

[Reeses2150]

With the last run I made 16 throws, and I dropped the 16th catch. So yeah, you saw right, only I actually made 2 more throws than you think. I wouldn't claim to have qualified anything unless I actually did it.

[thegoheads]

i think technically a qualify has to end in a clean finish with no drops... but it really doesn't matter anyway, it's all about having fun. This is a very fun video! nice job dude!

[JamieWhite1096]

It doesn't have to end in a clean finish as far as I know.

[Yomay]

It does not have to end with a clean finish. "a minute of 9 balls without clean finish does not qualify the pattern". Duh

[mc1703]

what gave you that idea?!

[thegoheads]

i dunno. that comment was like a year ago, I guess i didn't know what I was talking about.

[3up360]

i no i wasent trying to critizize u
