@docpop @motmot We remember there was a #juggling instance maybe two years ago. Organized by a french guy. But there was not much resonance, i.e. few local users. So they closed it again.

Surfing+kiting = kite surfing. What next? Hockey on unicycles? Beach volleyball plus #juggling? Well, actually, those two already exist… 2/6

"Were is Petter" is a video that I liked a lot when it came out. The intro with a camera mounted to a crane going up and filming a ball juggler from above, the sound of the balls catching, the starting soundtrack and the location of a skate park, seeing Alexander Koblikov walking over the funbox juggling 5 balls mills mess: A nice video all around. Have fun with the this gem from the past:

This old video connects two of my hobbies music on vinyl and juggling. I even skated in my youth. There is even a cameo from Sylvestre Dewa, a.k.a. Trash, a diabolo player. The music is from aberration chromatique and adds to the vibe of footbagging, juggling and skating vinyl discs. I loved this video back in the days.

Seeing Idriss Roca unique style of juggling clubs at "Au bout des doigts 2016" convention in Lyon was very special. I experimented as well with drops that bounce and can be part of the pattern again, but not at this level. I love how Idriss uses these stops in swinging the clubs while throwing others. It makes the pattern look like an organic living creature to me.

Todays video has a wonderful vibe. Anni Küpper has so many fluent movements with clubs around her body. She used to give workshops at conventions. Kyle Johnson has been very inpirational to me, when I saw him with his yellow balls at the Berlin Juggling Convention. This video is shot at the Vulcan. The video of Brecken Rivara was also from the Vulcan. There should be more places around the world like the Vulcan.

Thibault Mathieu for me is one of the most poetic jugglers in the world. He has a very fluent style in club juggling. Using balances, lazy throws, no beats, rolling, traps and isolations. This juggling took ideas from other fields like Poi and also influenced modern Poi and other circus arts a lot.

When I started out with circus arts I was lucky to see this act on stage:

Last week I posted a video of Gaëlle Coppée from Cie Scratch. She did win a video contest of the Convention de jonglerie de Bruxelles with Gilles Dodemont. Gilles first caught my eye in Bruxelles as diabolo player but over the years he did more and more ball juggling. So here are two videos of both of them which I really enjoy:

Gaëlle Coppée is a very inspiring juggler. She was always in Bruxelles at the juggling conventions and when YANA Magazine [0] did their first issue she did a piece about why she juggles:

Wes Peden is one of the most well known jugglers in the circus scene in the past 15 years. He is a creative circus artist with a lot of energy. After studying circus arts in Stockholm he stayed in Europe and is present at many small and big conventions. "Wes Peden Sucks!" is one video of him that I like, because it has a lot of energy and colours in it. It was filmed in Brazil 10 years ago:

At my first circus conventions I saw Falco Scheffler. I remember me sitting in front of him in Lüneburg doing his ball magic. I was just starting out and not going to be a ball juggler. But still his juggling was mesmerizing. The song to this video is a Cover of The Cure - Close To Me by The Get Up Kids.
