After all these years. Holy crap. it's been 8 YEARS since Kinetic Potential, and now, FINALLY I've gone and had the time and will to make juggling music video number 22. Good god life can suck sometimes keeping you away from doing awesome things on video for the internet heh. Though really, it's my own fault. The whole idea of the big music video series is that I would only do my absolute best tricks in them, and really only make new ones when I have a bunch of new personal bests to put in. Problem is, I hit my peak and plateaued with that 6 ring flat front qualify in the last vid, and so I feel like making another video is unjustified cause it's gonna have the same if not worse tricks in it. Welp, it's reflection of my current abilities since then, sooooo, guess it's better to showcase my decline/plateau than to be hidden forever XD

Sorry about the bad framerate! filmed with a webcam, because of the length. exactly 10 minutes of 5 ball juggling

This is the first part of Still Hidden's Juggling Tales telling the background story of Harlequin.

'Is it some sort of gay leather circus from Finland' -A. Berry/nTOM OF CIRCUS ‘refuge and liberation in art!’ In our work we have no statements to make as we already know how the world lies. We are thinking only about the image itself, hidden, but then destroyed. ‘Tom Of Circus’ is not conversation piece, it is masturbation piece that produces a strong respect for our witty creation./nOhjaus: Rauli Katajavuori Valosuunnittelu: Vespa Laine Puvustus: Laura Sariola Esiintyjät: Lauri Koskinen, Rauli Katajavuori, Matti Koskela, Teemu Riihelä/n‘Sirkus Supiaisen Tom of Circus -esitys on mitä kiinnostavinta nykysirkustaidetta. Se ei asetu valtavirtaisen nykysirkuksen pirtaan vaan pikemmin se kommentoi ja polemisoi joitakin nykysirkuksen ominaisia piirteitä ja asetelmia. Samalla esitys viihdyttää, hauskuuttaa ja ihastuttaa.’ -Kaisa Kurikka, Turun Sanomat 8.3.2018

This is surprisingly effective when done well, it can really look like your leg has dissapeared! Unfortunately it's very angle sensetive, it only really works when viewed from the front. Incase you can't work it out from the video, here's how you do it. Hold the hat by the brim, with the opening resting against the top of your thigh, move it down until it covers your foot and hides it from view. As you raise the hat again, bend your leg at the knee. Et voila! Your leg has vanished! Lower the hat again, straightening your leg as you do so. Ooh look! Your leg has re-appeared! Top tips: Only raise the hat as far as your knee, and keep your foot hidden behind your thigh. A few minutes practice infront of a mirror and you'll soon get the hang of it. Bonus points: Make both legs dissapear, at the same time...
