Are there any other serious jugglers on Oppo? I kind of want to see if there are, and if there are, what kind of equipment you guys have.
For beanbags, I carry six Flying Clipper Tossaball Ultra Soft 2.45s (one in each of green, yellow, blue, red, orange, and purple).
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
For bounce juggling, I carry around three of the Toysmith Stickballs (one in each color, usually. I do have more of the pinks, though).
Side note: I also carry around a few tennis balls, they're good too.
As for clubs, I usually carry around three of the Play D (huehuehue) Clubs. I bought one each of the green, the yellow, and the black, but then I just swapped around the grips, so they look cooler now.

They look really cool in person, but they're really bright. Somehow, they manage to slip through into the one-piece catagory, even though they have the removable grips, and the end screws off. They're pretty strange, but I'm also pretty strange. I like my clubs with a little bit more weight than average, makes the club feel more like you actually have some mass in your hands.
However, the most fun, and the most expensive item in my set, is a set of Dube Custom Fire Torches. $45 apiece, so that means I have $135 worth of torches. I have a green, a blue, and a silver. Would've gotten a gold one, but they were out of stock when I went to get one...
Anyways, if any of you are jugglers, perhaps you could share?

I always thought jugglers, merely by their nature, were more whimsical than serious.

My wife use to juggle a bit. She made her own balls though, putting whatever you put in them for some weight. She also has bought some as well, not sure what they are though.

I'm not as serious as I used to be, but Kooshes are one of my favorite things to juggle. They're fun to look at, and they squish up nicely for transport. I've been in a few theater productions where I juggles which made them great, because I could keep the in my pockets without a noticeable bulge, rather than the prop shelf where I would need to fetch them when necessary. If you're trying new things, they have the same advantage as bean bags, no bouncing or rolling away if dropped.
