Oh yeah, I get it now:
1. I posted this right after he posted his.
2. Many here seem to think any kind of competition that involves juggling
is ethically wrong, and do not want to support me in showing everyone this
video, by not replying and thereby letting this thread die. Oops, I just
made it obvious that I want to provoke you into replying to this.

Come on guys, it's all fun. I don't hate art (juggling). It's just that I
don't do it, just like I don't paint or make music. That doesn't mean I
hate it.


Even if I think that your video is very good and technically amazing, I
still have a doubt. Most of those tricks could be included in the
"extremely hard" category. How many attempts did you need? Are you sure
you will be able to manage to include them all in a routine without a
drop? Or maybe you just don't pretend to do those tricks in competition?




I hope you're not serious - I don't think anybody in the world could hope
to do all this in a drop deducted juggling competition. My aim with this
video was to show off the single hardest tricks I could do, not routines -
something I will, however, spend more time on in future videos.

Besides, aren't hard tricks what you want to see in a juggling video that
focuses on technical juggling? I think it would be kind of lame if people
would just go "ooooh man you got those tricks really consistent!" rather
than "ooooh man those tricks are amazing!".

But don't go and imagine now that I practica any of these. Ok, I do
practice a 7 ball 5 up 360. But not any of the others. I spend my time
getting stuff consistent, something I'll hopefully be able to demonstrate
at WJF5.
