5 balls...kind of...okay not really
Zoinkid
don't think I quite made it to a qualify (10 catches?). So I thought i'd
make a thread about it. I'm quite tempted to add all my catches here in
new posts:
a) Annoying everyone
and
b) Raising my postcount.
Or not.

That's what bogleg's for.
Then we can ignore you there instead of here ;-)
Good luck, and make sure you read Boppo's numbers notes in the IJDb
Articles section.

Fair enough, everyone else seems to.

OBJuggle: I got 15 catches of ball on stick with clubs on monday, but
I've now hurt some sort of tendony thing in the back of my hand so I've
had to stop for a bit. Bugger.

What is "ball on stick with clubs?"
Adam
Little Paul
Spin a ball on your finger, transfer it to the end of a six foot long
"pointed stick", transfer the lot to a chin ballance, and then juggle 3
clubs.

Sorry. I don't know how to describe that in beatmap.

Aka "The Bungay Trick", but you'll have to go to Bungay convention to
find out, 'cos it's super secret in muggle world.

There's not really a postcount here, per se. This is usenet, not a
forum. Unless you are like Paul (and me too of course) and log in to
some usenet data collection service [1] to prove to yourself how
superior you are (at posting) than everyone else.

Ha ha. Yea, I caught that.

Yes. Every poster's name is linked to their profile page in the IJDb
rec.juggling interface. Strangely, looking at my post count
(<http://www.jugglingdb.com/news/profile.php?Name=Rory+Parle>), I'm
sandwiched between Jani Kyllonen (40) and Jani Kyllönen (42).

It's just me and my evil alter ego battling things out. When I was at
university, there was this third guy called Jani Ilari Kyllönen as well.
If I was sandwiched between us (please don't tell Finnish tabloids about
this), I would be very worried, very worried indeed.
ObJuggle: Three club backcrosses... I begin to think that all the videos
I have seen with backcrosses are trick filmed. I just can't do it. It's
impossible for me.

I can do them continuously with my right hand for maybe 10 or 12 catches
(i.e. five or six back-crosses plus the other throws). I can do them
every second left-hand throw for a while too. I decided nearly a year
ago that I would have the pattern solid within weeks. So much for that plan.

In a moment of pure geekiness I checked out the

Personally, I'm glad to see there's someone else who wasn't born juggling
five balls, and might actually have to work at it.
I've been plateaued at about 7 or 8 catches for quite some time now. My
plan was to qualify five by the end of the year (2005). Ah, well. Then
2006, definitely.
Good luck to you,

its just practise - i got it (about 10 catches) within about 3 weeks
(about 2 hours practise every day). it was nowhere near solid but i got
there in the end. one tip: learn in DOUBLE SPINS if you arent already,
after youve perfected doubles then progress to singles.
with 5 ball backcrosses im progressing 50 times slower than 3 club
backcrosses... man its aggrivating.

Erm... I most definitely did not post that. I haven't even looked at it
and would probably not understand it if I did.
Back to your normal rec.juggling broadcast in 5..4..3..2..1..

Nah, none of that. I'm quite proud of my post counts. I'm edging up the
rankings. Of course I'll need to post lots more random stuff to bring it
up into the top ten I think. Of course, I don't think anyone on here or
diabolo.ca post nearly as manically as some forums I've seen. My little
brother per se has managed to post over 3000 posts over a few forums since
September 2005. That's a lil obsessive I feel...

Objuggle: Managed to beat my 5 ball personal best with 33 catches. I
stopped there and didn't juggle for the rest of the day. And backcrosses
are impossible.
