More vids for the Camera Roll!

Some stuff that I recorded during the past weeks.
Apologies for the flooding of balls, and too little of other props...
I may start today recording a video with rings! Just because I never did x))
Enjoy, or otherwise, get inspired!

What the heck?

For some reason, I never posted this video before...
Why, when it contains some of my awesome-est moves, all recently nailed?
Anyways, here it is... recorded on the lovely grounds of the Coconut Grove Juggling Exchange.

-props to the 5 ball 3up360!!! So happy I got that one =)

Ideas for a platonic performance

Basic Model: The traditional kickup from 3 to 4 props

The New Ingredients: a mills mess, a shaved chin.

The Insight: a bored afternoon, flashy russian balls, one camera+tripod.

The Evidence:

Study Break Ideas

I came with this funny short routine while taking a break from chemistry.
Nothing astronomical here... just a coupla goofy tricks!

Go R Kelly!

High Energy/Standards Juggling

I'll declare this an account of my experiences so far, now that I'm a US resident in the state of Florida.

I think the most relevant one is the fact that two weeks ago, I was able to join my first JUGGLING CLUB - the Coconut Grove Juggling Exchange. I never took part of any "group juggling" experience before, and for all the days we've met I've been having an unlimited amount of fun.

And now for the title itself. I've had unfortunately few experiences at which I could juggle together with more than one person, and given so, my practices would be mainly myself, the props and the music - and the bystanders, always staring. These weeks, however, showed me how does juggling in a club feels like - live music, 10 people throwing and catching around you, the desire to improve is mutual.
I blame mainly this mutual feeling for the HUGE improvement I've been having since then. There's a huge energy dissolved within the halls of the club, and that is the energy that pushes you forward, fuels you to strive for performance and ultimately causes you to land that darn trick you tried to nail for an hour straight. In my case, 5 ball 3-up-360, 4 ball 4-up-360 and qualifying 7 balls were feats that I believe would not have been done without such surroundings.

Well, juggling aside, university life's been fun as well. Not the fun that you drink every night, but fun that I feel at home once more, having my floor/residential college as a family and such. Juggling and Dodgeball clubs are still the best that ever existed. Engineering Majors should love these - simple, yet amusing stuff.

If that's what y'all wondering, I'll be posting a video very soon. PEACE

What to do in Brazil (at least in Rio)

Sup y'all?
I've got a new vid just uploaded on youtube, and here's what it's all about.
I spent the last weeks of summer back in my hometown. However busy I was with partying, beaching (is there such a verb?) and chilling, I also took the time to keep my practice updated (it's never a burden anyway =DD).
This results in some fresh footage taken at the rooftop (!) of my hotel, which turned to be a perfect practice spot!
Anyway, here it goes. Enjoy!

CPR on a dead blog!

Aight, y'all.
I know I haven't been posting here and fiddled with the idea of terminating this "notebook" several times and just didn't do so due to... lazyness.
But I also thought recently that a blog is the best way to send information of yourself once you move away from a place to another, and said so, I decided to revive it.

So what better way to refresh a moribund blog than posting stuff? Here's what I've been up to, lately (ok, summer break stuff so what?).

I'll post an update soon, I'll try.

Peace, y'all!

Late June/Early July
