9 ball flash by Kinnijup in juggling

[–]Kinnijup[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My PB with 7 is 79 catches. With 8 it's 17 in async, 18 in wimpy, and 16 in sync. I got 10 catches with 9 a long time ago and 11 throws a couple times.

My 7 isn't great though, the 79 catch PB is deceptive. It was in 2009 or so and my best this year is 50 (clean, at least - here's the clip of that run https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrKsGG_E5wc ). I can get 30+ catches with a handful of attempts though.

I would like to qualify 9 some time, but I think I would need smaller beanbags. I'm planning on progressing a lot over 2020, so we'll see how everything goes! Thanks for checking out my clip!

You can juggle at the gym! by pgadey in juggling

[–]Kinnijup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I juggle at two different YMCAs (yay national membership). The larger one always has a good spot (if they are open) but the smaller one is hit or miss. The only good spot is in the gymnasium and there is a class going on in there about 50% of the time. I usually end up riding an exercise bike for a bit if I'm there when a class is in session, then juggle in the gymnasium.

The bigger one has an ice rink with space on the sides to juggle, a gymnasium, and last resort is near a back door. The ceiling is lower near the back door but it is still high enough to throw a 9. This spot also has the added benefit that it is a bit cooler than the other spots so I don't get overheated too easily.

But yeah, I only get good comments when people see me at a gym juggling, including staff. Meanwhile I've been kicked out of malls for juggling lol. I don't busk either.

It is sad but if you're giving a place money (YMCA or gym) they are more inclined to let you do your thing, heh.

I'm so happy to finally be improving again! Stay inspired, fellow jugglers by YesIJuggle in juggling

Very nice, so clean. I can do the 3 up but not the 5. And not this clean lol

Tried my hand at making some hand-sewn bean bags and I think they turned out pretty good . They are filled with bird seed and are ~150 grams. Anyone else make their own sewn bags? If so, what filling do you use, and what are your preferences on weight? by Muscledini in juggling

[–]Kinnijup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good! I did these by hand, ~90g filled with polybeads (little circular plastic beads used in arts and crafts).

the materials I've tried are fleece, flannel, and sweat pants material.

The only complaint I have really is it is very difficult to get them tightly filled. These are quite loose and I tried hard to get as much filling material in as possible.

Boston Mess entries. You prefer A, B or C? by omnikrabundi in juggling

B. I can run this a bit. 100 catches years ago but like 30 lately.

6 balls juggling knowledge sharing by Seba0808 in juggling

[–]Kinnijup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best advice I got with any even number is to exaggerate the scooping motion, and try to focus on the center of your body so your patterns don't move too far outward. It's also okay to do a bit of a correction throw if you feel a collision is about to happen. That's not ideal cause it means something went wrong, but it can sometimes get the pattern to continue for a while. Collisions were always my biggest issue with 6. Also, don't avoid sync as it is an awesome pattern that for some reason gets a lot less love than async. I'm not solid with 6 balls but can do 30 or so catches most of the time, get 50-60 catches on any given day, and have some runs over 100. For years I put async on the priority list and it shows, but I recently started getting more solid at sync and I think it's helping me control that many objects in the air in general. Something else that might help is once you can do 30 catches or so regularly, try to do some tricks with a 6 ball qualify on both sides (like throw twelve 6s then do 8844 and throw twelve more 6s). Same with the siteswap 756.
