  • SO DIFFICULT!!!

  • @crooxy Yeah, it's definitely very difficult when you first start out. There is a pretty steep learning curve, but once you figure out a few things, and develop better reflexes, it will get easier. Not easy, but easier LOL. Best of luck....just keep practicing and you'll get there!

  • Thank you for a wonderful intro to contact juggling! I wasn't sure this was something I wanted to try, but now I feel like it's something I can handle, and will give me something to keep my hands limber.

  • No problem! It's a lot of fun and helps build smooth movements with your hands/arms.

  • There was a guy 'contact juggling' in the streets near where I lived and I was amazed! Ihad never herd of it before. A few days later I bought myself a 3" acrylic ball and was veru confused by it!!! I then watched your video and it really got me off to a great start! Now a week into it and I'm really getting the feel...havent scratched it once yet :D thank you very much!

  • Well, acrylic definitely isn't the best to start off with. They're pretty heavy to learn on and tend to get all scratched up. But if you take care of it it will treat you well. I advise practicing over a bed or couch to keep it in better condition. Best of luck!

  • Absolutely! No problem...just glad I could help!

  • Well I guess the one I really like the best is $11 now that I look...but still really cheap. It's the 3.5" dube' stage ball from the juggling store.

  • Just be careful with them and you'll be fine....but they do scratch very easily. Isolations rock...but honestly, it's just as good with a vinyl stage ball, like the blue one I have. And it was only like $7. You just need a consistent-colored ball, that's all.

  • Acrylic? Prob not the best for learning, but it'll work. Just expect them to probably get all scratched up very soon from being dropped. That and they're uber heavy and very slick, not the best for learning, but they do look great for performances. Especially for isolations. Oh....mine is actually orange. Guess it kinda looks reddish though.
