    you know what else is cool.. and really easy once you get comforatable with it... sword swallowing haha a friend of mine swallows the really long ones and apparently she says they go as far down as her stomach... im not THAT comfy with it though haha its a freaky feeling.

    i definately would love to learn the whole fire breathing thing but the gas part freaks me out a little too haha crazyy stuff.

    i really want to learn poi (eventually using fire) and contact juggling this summer.

    I was practicing for 5 minutes with a friend's stage ball during a break time at work, and it seemed like a lot of fun (and a great way to spend time when you have nothing better to do :D)

    ^any magic/juggling shop should carry them. theyre about 30-50$ at most places.

    of course, thats assuming you can find a juggling supplies shop. theyre few and far between...

    I get mine off of Dube.com. I find them to be decently priced and really high quality. Also though Neonhusky is good and it sells B balls with imperfections for cheaper which is great for learning and practice.

    i'm digging this old thread back out.

    hi!

    so, has anyone learn to contact juggle since they posted?

    i watched a video on youtube of this a while back and i'm obsessed with trying it myself. i'm this close to ordering myself a ball online. what size is good to start with? i assume acrylic is the best since most seem to be made from this.. is it? any good videos you have come across?

    Ahhhh man, had no idea this was here!

    Did you stick with the contact juggling?

    I started around 4-5 months ago. Now it's taken over my brain. Bought a 100mm sil-x of neon husky and been body Rollin ever since. Been drilling chestrolls and bridge rolls lately. Haven't really worked on any isolations too much, but shall happen soon.
