How to make Russian Style Juggling Balls Tutorial WHERE TO GET PINS: I went to a local hardware store and they were 35 cents a piece. This is nice if you only want to get a few but if you want to buy in bulk (multiples of 50) use this link. If you buy one pack it is 21 cents per plug and if you buy two packages the shipping only goes up slightly so you only pay 17 cents per plug. I used a 3/16 inch drill bit for a 1/4 (4/14) inch plug. This means that you must push it in but it is nice and tight once it is on the ball. =sr_1_cc_2?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1359328148&sr=1-2-catcorr&keywords=nylon hole plug 1/4 Russian Juggling Balls: This type of ball is excellent for body stalls like on your neck or foot. Also, when these balls are dropped they don't roll away very far because the have a very low center of gravity due to being only partially filled with sand or salt. As I said in the video these balls are surprisingly durable and great to use. The play pit balls I purchased were 65mm or 2.5 inches I believe, and are great for numbers juggling. Good luck and thanks for watching! A little about juggling History: Juggling has been around for hundreds of years and was thought to be started by the Egyptians. A few decades ago jugging and jugglers were limited with what they could do because there was no effective way to communicate to other jugglers what exactly they were doing in a juggling trick. (remember there was no internet or video cameras back then) Then some years later the revolutionary system of Siteswap notation came out. Siteswap notation is a way of giving numbers to particular juggling throw heights and direction in order to be able to write down what juggling pattern was being executed. Siteswap caught on and it became easier for jugglers to improve because they could better learn new juggling tricks. Then the internet came on the scene, and jugglers everywhere began to talk and upload videos of everything that they were doing and juggling. Once people see that someone else can do it they realize that they can too and thus the juggling community improved dramatically. There are many great jugglers out there that people look up on YouTube and elsewhere. Guys like Jason Garfield and Anthony Gatto are just two men that have changed the world of juggling. These guys have always been pushing the limits of gravity, creativity, and possibility. If you want to buy juggling props or any other things juggling related check out the WJF (world juggling federation) store online to find some great things. The world juggling federation has done an amazing job over the last decade to advance juggling and make it more popular around the world check out the WJF and see if you can go to the next competition!
