this seemed like a nice place to stash this..
THIS IS MY FIRST EVAR VIDEO ONLINE!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDpx75Z9IKE

things i have all ready noted:
sorry about the crowd. this random camera guy decided not to move
(on account of losing his place in line methinks)

sound effects are blah. i had been standing there juggling for quite some time before he got a camera out. sadly you missed the good ones (at least i can make you think so)

looking back at the vid. i seem a bit cramped.. my arms are not always loose and "flowing" but note the 'elbows in' positions, particularly bad.. and once or twice my back posture makes me sad.

on the other hand. some random guy captured me and posted it online!
(plus he gave me a three day pass! *instead of only saturday which he mentions in the flick*)

anything else?
bring it on!

Nice stuff,

bonus points for the david bowie comment :D

Apart from the camera work it was a nice clip. Mind you I would have liked to have seen the rest of you.

And post the next vid in a thread of it's own cause nobody ever looks at the stickies :D

That's why it took over a year for someone to notice it :D

One ball Paul used to make similar noises... Occasionally I beatbox to my contact juggling.

I wonder how many other people here are closet noise makers?

http://www.youtube.com/user/ajugglingfr ... GEEZ0a2-xA new toys, new vid. I am new so I hope I am posting in the right place. Sorry about the low quality recording, but what are ya gonna do. In the video I am trying to demonstrate some qualities of the Sil-X, like blind behind the back, foot catches, and body rolls.

AmazingKenny... Man your CJ is pretty sick... Sucks you had to endorse those horribly made Fballs... Do you get first pick or something? Every one of your Fballs are not off balanced like the rest of the populations...

KennyD: Comments like you posted above are unnecessary and not funny or cool. Stick to whats relevant. He already knows how people feel about that decision and it doesnt matter when he posts a video.

i dunno. kennyd was actually being kinda nice.
he was pointing out that kennys contact was fairly good, despite him being a horrible shill and selling the art we love to a mindless corporation intent on taking the magic and beauty out of contact juggling. fair call, in my opinion.

Agreed. Exploitative behavior does not get less exploitative over time.

wow...i still dont get it. he isnt trying to force anyone to buy the product. he hasnt, since last i saw, promoted his site on the forum. and he didnt even say the f-word on here. I get that we dont like what he does. and if you want to bully someone for doing something that you dont agree with then whatever. But i will express my opinion that it makes you sad little people who worry too much about what others are doing. Bullying people is s**t, and has been since grade school.

**EDIT**
I suppose it is possible that i read more into KennyD's post than could have been there. But it seemed to be an extra poke at the fact that kenny is/was promoting what most people have received as crappy product. AmazingK didnt make the product. I am sure he grabbed the best ones he could. Just like we would all do at a juggling store, and beating him over the head with that is hypocritical at best. We dont agree with the marketing of the creator. AmazingK didnt set that up either. I have no reason to stand up for him based on the product. But as a human flaming him is crap. We all like stuff that we are afraid others will think is odd, or stupid. And almost everyone is afraid of being outed for it. But to continually berate someone about something they like is poor form. How many of you performers have been called crap on the street, or on youtube because we play with balls? You develope a thick skin. Dont be so crappy to him just cause he likes the way that ball looks. There are worse things out there.

Cool, I'll be off to submit my resume to Blackwater/Xe then... I hear the pay is amazing and you get to torture foreigners. I mean, I didn't make the company, so who cares what I do if I work for them?

Hecklers don't know any better. Kenny does, and he's remained on the take this whole time at the expense of the rest of us ("I know it hurts you, but quitting would hurt me, so oh well"). Dan, you know I have a lot of respect for you, but I think that anger is really misdirected. Where's the passionate defense of those of us who've been given no choice but to market Fushigi every time we do a show? I'm not exactly going out of my way to harangue Kenny/CJO for their choices, but nor will I give respect to the decision to take the money that ZoomTV earned duping gullible people and exploiting all of our hard work.
