I'm so excited to announce that a little over 5 years after its December 2004 release date, Luftgarten, my first full-length (31 minute) juggling film is available again for all of you who missed it the first time around.
It's an instant $5 download and all sales go towards finishing my current project (already 40 minutes long and still going) which has two small teasers on my channel already.
I'm very proud of Luftgarten and am glad to be able to offer it again, without all the hassle of shipping costs and post office trips. I hope you all take the opportunity to download it because once it goes this time, it's going into the VAULT Disney-style.
Seven sections on this film and two fun surprises. Intro, Balls, Rolling, Kickups, Rings, Clubs, and "Hard Stuff". Add to that "Dance Dance Revolution" and "2 Ring Torture" and you've got yourself a Michael Karas classic. Or should I say "klassic"?
Thanks again for all your support! ~Michael Karas

Quick video I decided to make of Turbofest, which took place early in January of 2010 in Quebec City. Performers include: Joe Showers, Jacob Sharpe, Duncan Philpot, Aaron DeWitt, Shane Miclon, Norbi Whitney, Doug Sayers, Eric Bates, Tristan Nielson, Yan Leblanc, Jon Roitman, "Eman" Pinard, and Alexander Kulakov.
It was a blast, and I hope you enjoy the video!

The act I eventually performed in my course's end of year show. Not one of my better runs, unfortunately, but such is life. Music is My Half by Venetian Snares.

Well this is a long video, mostly because of the intro though. i don't want to spoil anything in the description...but I have to in the tricks list, so get to at least like a minute in before reading this.
Like I said, I'm 2 days late, but that's because I was hanging out with the .org people on the 10th, and didn't get home until 4:00 on the 11th, and I had work at 5. Then the next day I wasn't home at all. So yea, I'm late, but I didn't use those late days to get more practice in.
When i get into the ball juggling, I've only been doing that for a little less then a week, so hopefully by next month I can make it consistent. Now for the spoilers:
3 Clubs: Invincible by Adelita's Way
3:15 - First double throw
4:18 - Constant under arm throws with the same club
4:23 - Chops
4:36 - Multiplex start
4:41 - Reverse chops
4:50 - Reverse cascade
4:56 - Double starting throw
5:06 - Double cascade
5:26 - Mill's mess
5:33 - Flat spin start
5:37 - Green club thrown with an opposite spin
.....Right after typing this

This is a family of tricks that are part cascade or fountain, and part shower or pseudoshower, which are good tricks for learning numbers juggling. They are stepping stones between the easier tricks you can do, and target numbers trick you wish to do.
Pseudoshower?! Twin to the shower, it has even high throws and odd period, instead of odd high throws and even period.
The four families of hybrids are, the cascade-shower, the cascade-pseudoshower, the fountain-shower, and the fountain-pseudoshower.
The inf. pseudoshower 3: 1818181 could have been added to the lower right section, on top.
I like all of these tricks, but haven't seen them described this way before.
I also performed 8888181 and 8888881 in Ten Years of Not Juggling, shown on the board. In that film I also performed 6: 99919191, and 5: 88171717, 6: 88881717, 7: 88888817, and also 6: 889191, and 7: 888891, which differ in having shower throws higher than the fountain throws.

A few cigar box juggling tricks over the break. Not as much crazy stuff as in 6, but I've been watching Lewie West's acro videos (check them out), and I really liked the mix of technical stuff with fun tricks that make you want to go train and explore whatever discipline you're doing. So I hope this does that.
Music: binary star- reality check

This is an early trial run of a routine I eventually performed as part of an end-of-year show. It's still a little rough at this stage, I'm hoping to get a video of me performing this in front of an audience rather than just students uploaded soon.

A 20-minute show I directed and performed in recently as part of my course. Contains ball manipulation, club passing, acrobatics and a little aerial, and the percussion soundtrack is all performed live onstage. Although it was never officially named, the show has come to be known simply as 'Boom!'.

Here I attempt the impossible: to juggle four balls in the cascade pattern, and 5 in the fountain.
As a bonus, I also show the 5-ball wimpy pattern. So far as I know, I am the first person ever to do this trick, and with any luck will also be the last.

A short guide to how to clean and look after your Stainless Steel ball bearing from a Yo-Yo.
You will need:
Ball bearing Yo-Yo
Lighter fluid
YoYoJam Lube (thin or thick)
Tweezers
Glass Jar
Pliers/bearing removal tool
Cloth/Tissue
Ceramic bearings should not be cleaned in the way described in the video.

Please note that steps in this guide can be dangerous and that following instructions from this video are taken at your own risk. Children should enrol the help of a responsible adult. Lighter fluid is highly flammable, gives off dangerous fumes and should be disposed of carefully as it is bad for the environment.
If not followed correctly this tutorial can result in breaking the bearing or Yo-Yo.

"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.
