Backcross to head catch - Throw the hat behind your back, and catch it on your head.
Like most throwing moves, this is a variation on the Throw to head - so it's probably a good idea to learn that first!
Hold the hat in your right hand using an inside grip, spread your fingers out nice and wide as you would for a normal throw to the head.
Swing your arm out to the side, so that the crown of the hat is pointing downwards. Bring your arm behind your back and release the hat so that it does a nice, high, slow spin above your left shoulder.
As the hat descends, look up into it and catch it in the same way that you would for a standard throw to the head.
Top Tip: The catching part is easier if you turn your head towards your left shoulder just before the catch. Oh, and obviously learn this throw from both hands...

Big Circles - Swing the hat round at arms length - and make it look good.
Hold the hat crown forward in an inside grip and swing it at arms length - twisting the wrist to keep the crown forward. At the top of the swing let go of the hat, untwist your wrist and recatch the hat in an inside grip, continue the swing and repeat as many times as you like.

Coat Peg - Throw the hat up to an upstretched hand
Hold the hat in an inside grip at waist height and throw it with half a spin to the upstretched hand.
The key is to spread the fingers on your throwing hand as much as possible and hold your catching hand in a coat peg grip. The hat lands on your thumb like it's landing on a coatpeg.

A nice variation on the Coat Peg.
Hold the hat in an inside grip at waist height and throw it upwards with half a spin.
As the hat flies upwards quickly stick your throwing hand up in the air and catch it.

Hold the hat in an inside grip. Put the other arm out at an angle and twist the hand round so it faces backwards. Place the hat on the upper arm and let it roll down to a catch in another inside grip. Repeat as often as you like by alternating sides.

Hold the hat out in front of you, in an inside grip so that the brim is horizontal, and the crown is on top.
Pull back on the hat as you throw it, so that it floats, without spinning and catch it on your head. Here's what it looks like from the inside.
The key to the trick seems to be to keep the hat level, and pull it towards you as you let go. That and luck, and/or practice.

Had to film something before the winter's coming.
I didn't practice any numbers lately, so this is mostly a technical 1d, 2d video.
Just some integral combos I like, only a few tricks are really new.
P.S. Not all clips are at best quality, since I had some issues with the rendering (I was dumb enough to film at two framerates :( ). The quality on YouTube is better.

(Re-upload: a clearer version of JTV #148)
Victor Ponce is an Argentinian circus juggler, known for boomerang hats and very fast club juggling.
I like this clip because it starts with the rarely seen ball & sticks (Japanese origin).
ball & sticks, head bounce with skipping, 3 tambourines, 3 & 5 clubs, 3 & 4 boomerang hats

Manuel Alvarez, circus juggler of Spanish origin. Featured lots of club kickups.
This performance at the 13th Monte Carlo Circus Festival in 1988.
2-4 boomerangs, 3 clubs featuring kickups, 4-7 boomerang plates
This is a good video for anyone working on kickups, as the director seems to like closeups of his feet!

Heavyweight jugglers Marghonas on Paul Daniels Show 1991. Roman soldiers spinning big heavy chariot wheels on the tips of their spears - the Collosseum was never like this!
Picture quality is abysmal - sorry about that.

Documentary/Showreel about British "new circus" troupe Ra Ra Zoo and their show "Live at the Swan Theater". Not sure about the date as I can't make that out at the end, but it's some time in the late 1980s-early 1990s I think.
Video features what looks like a young Sean Gandini to me, which would make it pre-1992

Film made for a contest. Rules:
- 40 seconds maximum
- a red "sphere" should appear
Malabares en su tinta is the best blog, http://www.malabaresensutinta.com/, about circus in Spanish, at least I like it a lot. Consequently more than 1000 times a mouse has clicked the always longed for 'like' button on facebook, https://www.facebook.com/malabaresensutinta. This is my contribution to the contest organized to celebrate it.
The sexy camerawoman was: Agata Bednarz :*
The amazing music is Earl by BadBadNotGood
Recorded with a Oneplus One at 720p, forgot to change it :(
The crime scene is:
An old abandoned police building chosen this year to hold the periodic art exposition Survival. Survival happens once per year in Wrocław, a weekend. An old building or environment is filled with strange art, free entrance, the chance to see an abandoned closed place, drinking beer all around the place, juggling all around the place, and there are even DJs...

The act is called "Do more of what you make happy" was created in 2013 after a research about body throws, movements and siteswaps with 2,3 and 5 balls.
The main concept is:
Sometimes you have to come back and restart from a different perspective, maybe easier./nI showed this performance in many stages in Europe like Open Stage, Gran Gala and circus cabaret./ninfo : [email protected]

Thom’s unique background of professional circus training, mime, and modern dance makes him a unique commodity in the performing arts world.
