Juggling clubs.

Off-topic
1

Here is alot of questions I have about juggling. I know there are old threads but I figured since there are so many new users, that they might have missed the others.

First, who here juggles clubs? I can do 3 and am looking at buying more.

Second, what kind of clubs do you juggle? I use Beard Circus Specials. They are the only ones I have used. I think they are pretty good but don’t know how they are compared to other clubs.

Third, does anyone have any clubs(perferrablly in a set of 3) that they would sell? I am looking at buying 3 more clubs, that way I will have a full set for passing but I don’t wanna drop a whole lot of money. I would like them to look pretty nice and I wouldn’t want them to differ in size or weight a whole lot from the Circus Specials.

Thanks to anyone who replies.

I can do 3 clubs, working on 4 at the moment.

I just juggle Duncan clubs that i got at the hobby shop for like $30. Plus i have a set that i made from newspaper(do a google search if interested)

And sorry im not selling mine.

I juggle beard Circus Specials too, my main incentive in buying them was the price. They were the cheapest 2 piece clubs I could find.

I have a set of beard flares and a set of beard trans euros. I do more passing than anything else, I find the social interaction of trying to learn a trick together more rewarding than practising for hours alone.

I juggle quite a bit, I’m working on 5 clubs at the minute and am also trying to get my passing improved as I want to work on 9 a bit more.

I am currently juggling Beard Convention specials (Euro long handled clubs at £5 each)

The clubs that seem to be becoming most popular at the minute though are the Passe Passe PX3’s, They have a plastic dowel and are supposedly a lot more durable but I’ve not spent long enough juggling them to know for certain what they are like.

I can do 5 clubs just! i have some very good runs of upto 30/40 throws but others i cant get the first out my hand

I use my dads pirroutes which are expensive but he has 8 because he got them years ago when they were cheaper.

My passing isn’t all that, i can do 7 and can catch most that is thrown at me because i am often the victim of new tricks.

I have some nice variations, but am only just starting to get into clubs!

any one fancy starting a juggling video thread, where we post our favourite moves or freestyle videos or something this would be cool i reckon.

Wow, more people are in to juggling clubs than I thought. That is so cool. I guess im getting another set of Circus specials. Now the hardest part. Picking out colors :). I have a red, blue, and yellow. Should I get another set just like it so it will look good for passing?

If they do six colours then get the other three, if they only do three then get the same again.

Heres the colors, Like i said I have blue, red, and yellow. Yeah I thought about getting a set. I think I might go for white, green, and black…and leave out the purple.

I’d go white green purple, there’s something odd about black juggling clubs, they just don’t stand out like the others do.

11

Hmmm really? okay i might just have to do that. I kinda wish I would of went with one color and then had like 3 blues and 3 yellows or something like that.

colours only reall matter for performing until then they will make great practice clubs and good colours because they are visible and eye catching sept for black which i have never seen a club in black before gives you an idea that they are not that good, just because they dont work weell with lights i suppose, dunno go for it.

So when the gallerys back up shall we post sum juggling vids?

Purple tend to blend in with dark backround even more disconcertingly than black clubs.
I quite like the black Fish.

I juggle clubs as well. I use Radical Fish Freestyle Street.
I do three and have qualified passing up to eight. I’m also much more into passing than into juggling on my own.
It’s more difficult to be lazy in a group.

14

Yes, I say when the gallery is back up that we put in some juggling videos somewhere. Mine won’t be the best but I will try to make them interesting.

I just filmed a 2 minute(ish) freestyle(ish) club juggling(ish) clip, its unedditted(ish) as i will probably add music, my excuses for the drops are if you look in the background its very windy, bright sky, cloudy but bright, ear fones went funny lol ill try and upload it

16

Ever get that video loaded?

well, I think you should actually buy 5 equal clubs… cause once you can do 4 youll want to get to five and there`s nothing worse than training with different clubs… I myself can do only 4 but I have 5 of them because of this. in a minor proportion they would also have less stress if you rotate them in your training…

about the colors… I believe theres only one color for clubs: WHITE. Its beautiful when they spin in the air and they give you much more visibility when in darker ambients…

Never underestimate what some club decorations can do for a set of ‘used’ clubs.

19

yeah… ok… it must be some thing of my own but I really hate colored clubs… juggler I know from here also dont likeem… theyre too bright and sparkled. the blacks are a nightmare. you just cant see them. you can`t know where they start and where they end. I just think colored clubs takeout the seriously of juggling and make it kinda clownish

Sorry, forgot to say that I agree with you on the white clubs for performing.
It rocks.
