A compilation

A compilation video of my earliest practice sessions. The first video is from the day I got my first contact ball. Crazy to see my progress. Hope you all enjoy

Best LED contact juggling balls?

Hi, I’m not sure if this is the right sub or not, but does anyone have any recommendations on where to buy LED contact juggling balls? I’ve been using renegade for a while but recently finding that the LED filament is weekly glued in placed causing it to go further in the ball and be unreachable after only a month of using them. If its of any importance I use 100mm balls

Favorite Tricks For a General Audience?

It's easy to get caught up in the fun complexities and artistry of juggling, but audiences full of kids and laypeople aren't gonna be able to fully appreciate a sequence of siteswaps or weird body throw variations. What are some of your favorite simple tricks that almost always get a "woahhh" or a laugh from people?

Siteswap Explorer app updated

I’ve just released version 2.0.3 of my Siteswap Explorer app.

You can get the iPhone/iPad app from the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/siteswap-explorer/id1549451272

You can get the Android app by joining https://groups.google.com/g/siteswapexplorer. I want to make it fully live on the Play Store, but Google demand a test period before I can do that. It looks like at least 12 people have to use the app each day in the next week. So it would be awesome for me if you join the group and try to remember to look at the app each day!

Here are some of the things I changed since last time I posted:

•⁠ ⁠The animator handles 0s, 1s and 2s a lot better. There’s still more work to do but it’s getting a lot better

•⁠ ⁠⁠it now animates face to face passes so they look more like passes

•⁠ ⁠⁠iPads in landscape mode get a new layout

•⁠ ⁠⁠if you’re really eager to type numbers in there’s a button that lets you do that in the settings page

•⁠ ⁠⁠in the passing modes, I’ve disabled 1s and 3s because the fastest pass that makes sense is a 5. So you won’t be offered any patterns with 1s or 3s. If you go ‘down’ from 774 for example, 4 handed modes skip 663 and go straight to 552.

•⁠ ⁠⁠lots of other little fixes

I hope you enjoy using it as much as I’ve enjoyed making it!

My LED juggling clubs

For my birthday last June 3rd I decided not to buy Vision clubs for myself and instead spend my time designing my own clubs so I would have full control over patterns. After a year I have my first version finished today. I'll be working on detection software for catches throws spins etc on a road trip to yellowstone this friday. I plan to sell these for as little as possible so if you're interested in open source juggling clubs/ sticks that you have unlimited control over stay tuned. My rough estimate currently for a price is 60$ per club, costing around 40$ to produce and many hours because I 3D print the shell currently. They have an accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer for pattern detection. I'm planning to design my own software to create patterns as easily as possible. You can charge these with a usb c as is standard today. I'm also currently planning a snap together feature to turn 3 clubs into a single staff. With plans to create dragonstaff like ends that snap on aswell. This prototype weighs a heafty 750g but I'm printing a thinner shell that totals the weight around 400g. I'm going to do my best to shave off every gram I can, this is just the alpha weight.

Thinking about buying clubs. Is it too early for me to do it?

Hi, newbie here, I‘m currently using Radfactor Russians as my main balls, I’ve managed to do cascade, half shower, tennis, and reverse cascade, and I’m working on windmill and the two in one hand variations

A bunch of my friends in uni have a club where they perform to different songs using light-up poi and other props. they actually have glowing clubs and have asked me to join since I’m the only one with any juggling experience

My question is, would it be too difficult to learn clubs given the fact I’m still a bit of a beginner juggler, or would it still be pretty feasible given my skill level?
