Over winter holidays I filmed some juggling. Some new ideas and older tricks. I think the complete footage is a little bit to long for one video. Therefore I made two videos out of it. That's the first (With my less favourite tricks).

"il video che non stavate aspettando" Dopo quasi 5 anni dal primo approccio con la giocoleria, ecco che esce "Sparkle" o "Scintilla" (su ispirazione di una canzone dei Dropp), il video che esprime al meglio la mia intenzione di raggiungere la completezza nella manipolazione, tecnica ed artistica, delle palline. "Sparkle" è frutto di un intenso lavoro di allenamento e ricerca, filmato e montato interamente da me, tuttora diciassettenne. Un grazie importante va a chi mi ha aiutato durante questo mio percorso e alla Scuola di Circo Flic.

A little free performance I did at the JJF. I didn't have much time to make it but I tried to throw in some harder stuff than my championship routine to test it out. Gonna work on completely new tricks for next year and keep them out of videos so there's a bit more impact when seeing them, a lot of this stuff has been done to death now.

Footage from a short session trying some of the more challenging tricks I can do complete with little subtitles that pop up as the tricks occur. Fun fun. :)<br>The music is a piece of junk that I made in garage band - Enjoy!

This trick is similar to the coatpeg drop but instead of dropping the hat and catching it behind your back, you catch it on your elbow. Hold the hat in your right hand, and throw it up to a coatpeg catch in your left hand. Let go of the hat, and bend your left arm at the elbow, pointing your elbow upwards. Catch the hat on your elbow. To complete the move, straighten your arm and the hat will fall. The catch is similar to that in the wipe up

Place the back of one hand against the front of the crown and the palm of the other hand against the back of the hat. Lift the hat off and roll the hands round each other so that the hat tumbles through one complete spin as you carry the hat down to waist level. Reverse the process to return the hat to the head.

This was filmed in 2005 and edited in 2009 (on here, JTV as "Will 2"). for some reason this alternate edit lives on my hard drive. I prefer this edit (it was an early one, complete with a blank space!) so maybe you'll enjoy it too. It's all ball juggling with a bit of bouncing off walls etc.

I've been juggling for a about a year and a half, and had 5 balls down (I thought) about a year ago, but now I'm having problems with my form. I'm having pain in my right shoulder and arm after a few hundred catches of 5 objects. As a side note, I do have some kind of muscle problem with my right shoulder now. I'm not sure if it's caused my by my bad form, or causes it, or is completely unrelated. I've been to a chiropractor 3 times now for it and I'm just wondering what to change. Thanks.
