So, I was messing around with my newest obsession, bounce juggling,
when, I thought of a trick variation that I've never seen done. I was
doing (4B,4B)(4,4) and (4B,4)* and then, 4B444B when I thought, why
couldn't you do these with 6 balls? So, after mucking about with the
simulator a bit, I came up with some 6b variations.

The full variations list is;
(4B,4B)(4,4) = (6B,6B)(6,6)
(4B,4)* = (6B,6)*
4B444B = 6B666B

Now, I'm not at the skill level right now to pull them off and, after
watching hours of bouncing videos(all of them that I can find,
including Bouncing in Paris), haven't seen anyone do them. If anyone
else here has, please point out the videos to me or, if any of the
technical bouncers here want to take a stab at it, I think they'd make
some pretty impressive looking tricks.

The main issue that I can see with the tricks is that, when you bounce
juggle, you tend to look down but, when tossing a 6, you have to look
up or, really trust your throws. Either that or, you'd have to have a
very low and fast pattern. At any rate, none of them seem impossible.

Thanks,

I really like all of your bounce videos, David. I especially like the
Crash and Burn, bounce performance video. Have you ever tried any of
the tricks that I suggested? The 4 ball versions are pretty standard,
as far as bounce jugglers go but, I've never seen them done with 6.

I'd love to see a new bounce video from you, David. You're one of my
favorite bouncers.

No, I haven't tried them or known anyone who has. They all look
wickedly difficult, but they would be interesting to try. I'll see
what I can do sometime, perhaps.
