Color:Blue | Size:3 I don't have the typical résumé of a successful entrepreneur: when I was 20, I left home in New Jersey and cycled around Europe. Then I became a carpenter and finally a street performer or Busker. In 2010, just for fun, I posted my DVD “Juggling for Beginners” that I produced on and was surprised - people bought it! I developed at least two juggling products per year. I am now a full-time company and sell worldwide on . I haven't lost my passion for street art and juggling and I'm happy when I able to perform. A children's hospital wrote to me that their little patients enjoyed my juggling products. It helped stay fit and motivated for their difficult life. I was so thrilled that I immediately donated supplies to this hospital. Marcus Halbig, aka “Mister M”, living in Strasswalchen near Salzburg, Austria. Why Juggle? Juggling promotes creativity, reduces stress, keeps the body agile and is heaps of fun. There is a great interview on my TheJuggler.info website. 10 Minutes a day is all you need to help keep you on your toes! Perfect for children or adults, young and old.

Worth far more than the selling price
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. So these got confiscated by the TSA on the way back from Kauai, so I did a proxy video with some other balls (#15 if you search juggling balls, 4 star rating). The bean bag types are sweet bc of their size, you can get a fast rhythm going and almost juggle horizontally, though I really dig the round ball type due to their contact-juggling properties. Practice enough and you'll find muscle memory and your sub/unconscious mind does a lot of the work for you. When I really get in a flow I feel like my brainwaves change into an almost meditative state

Simply the best if you dont have these you are missing out they are supper nice I was juggling like a pro within 15min
My grandson used to like when I would try to juggle 3 balls like I said try lol anyhow I saw these and decided to buy them to try as apposed to the hard plastic balls that we bought him to play with. they arrived super fast packaged well. one thing I noticed right away is that they are easier to hold onto my first try was met with a pleasant smile on this old mans face I was able to juggle these with ease. I always had the concept of juggling three balls what I was lacking was the proper tools .this set is amazingly easy to juggle they are a great weight so they don't float around . they are squishy enough to be gripped instantly the second they enter your hand.. not sure what they are filled with but it feels like a very light weight sand . what really cool is when you mess up and they hit the floor you don't have to chase them around they drop at your feet and stay there, that means more time practicing and less time chasing. I highly recommend this product to any beginner and I'm sure even a pro would like them. This has been great for holding my grandsons attention and he has even invented a little dance while I juggle.. Thank you to Mr.M for such a fantastic product that's given me and my little grandson so much joy.

Meh... prefer the "klutz juggling balls" that are square.
Meh... I have an old set of "klutz juggling balls" (also sold on Amazon) that are square shaped and like them much better than these. When you drop one of these round balls they can loose their shape. If one of the balls has a slightly different shape it leads to a drop - at least it does for me! The "klutz" balls being square do not roll on the floor when dropped nor do they loose their shape. I also find these round balls just a little too big for my liking. They are not bad, just not the best.

Great product and 3 reasons why.
I gave this product five-star for three reasons: no prior "juggling-product" experience, comparison to other review, and consumer awareness on behalf of the seller.Firstly, I have never purchard any products to try to learn how to juggle. This is the first set of juggling balls I've owned in my 32 years, so I have nothing to compare these to any others. With that being said, I am very happy with them. They are easy to grip, don't roll away when dropped and are multi colored (so they catch the eye).Secondly, I read on prior review that said the balls are made with an inferior quality and the balls split at the seam. I will say that in my frustration in learning (bad eye-hand coordination, remember?) I threw the ball(s) at the closest wall, very hard (multiple times), and the balls have given no sign of weakening. Would I suggest for you to do this? No. But, this should show that either the quality has improved drastically, or the "breaking at the seams" were isolated instances.Lastly, the inclusion of a video (which was very informative), in addition to the holding bag show the seller has the consumer in mind. Can you find a video on the Internet to give you tips? Sure! But, to have one in the box ready when you open it is a simple yet significant gesture on behalf of the seller that you're more than just another dollar.If I could offer any constructive criticism to this review, it would be to expand the starter video with more, or alternative, techniques. One such technique that helped me tremendously was to pass one ball in a figure 8 (on its side, if you will) from one hand to another. Do this for a long time, and then do it with your eyes closed. After this is mastered (it took me FOREVER, hence the frustration) you keep the ball in one-plane and the subsequent steps will be cake!TL;DRNo prior experience with similar products, but held up to much physical abuse. Consumer in mind, great tutorial video included. Would definitely buy again.

The right size, great tutorial
These weigh in at 100g ±1 (~3.5 oz.) and are ~8" in circumference. They are heavy enough to learn with, but perhaps not for little children's hands (mine are fairly large). I'm a mediocre juggler, and have used some lighter balls which are harder to work with. Further, the feel like they have the right density : not too mushy.I've only had them for a few weeks, so I can't comment on their longevity, but they seem to be well made. Will advise if otherwise.The fifth star is for Mr. M's online tutorial. It is well worth watching, suitable for all ages.

Great Feel, Weight and Durability
I went into this blindly having not ever felt juggling balls and not knowing how to juggle. Figured investing some cash would be the skin in the game I needed to learn. It was and these are great.The balls are grippy, a perfect size and weight and the right amount of squeeze to them. The seams, and everything, are holding up after extended use so my concern of durability when initially feeling these is quelled. The sack is convenient as well.The video gave me a bit of Blues Clues vibe; I quickly felt I wasn't the target demographic. However, the techniques were sound and there's plenty of information out there. The product here is the balls and five stars for those.

For the price you can't beat these
It's hard to find juggling balls that have some decent weight to them that don't cost a fortune. Some people complained about the stitching, but mine were all fine. It doesn't seem like a really valid complaint, when it says up front that these are made in a special needs workshop, and Amazon has free returns. They are not perfectly round either, but you don't need that to juggle. I've juggled as a hobby for years, and know a few basic tricks, so I didn't review the video. I wish that I'd had something this nice when I was a beginner. Get the set of five so you don't have to root under the furniture every time you drop one.

Man wird absolut übers Ohr gehauen
Ich habe mir die Jonglierbälle nachdem ich in der Produktbeschreibung gesehen habe gesamt 259 gramm. Wäre alleine für die Bälle 86 gramm. Jetzt muss man aber noch den mitgelieferten Beutel abziehen. So hätte jeder Ball um die 80-85 gramm. Dies wäre perfekt für mich gewesen, da ich noch am üben bin. Beim Auspacken ist mir jetzt jedoch aufgefallen, das die Bälle echt um einiges schwerer sind als meine alten Bälle. Nachdem ich diese auf die Wage gelegt habe hatten Sie 100 gramm. Also habe ich nochmal nachgeschaut und in den 5 Stichpunkten oben steht drinnen, dass jeder Ball 100 gramm hat. Das ist leider ein Widerspruch. Ich habe jetzt definitiv Probleme beim Üben.Und die absolute Frechheit war beim auspacken. In den Bildern steht, dass er mit dem Produktionsteam der Lebenhilfe Salzburg zusammenarbeitet . Somit dachte ich super, dass unterstütze ich, da er behinderten Menschen Arbeit verschafft. Als ich dann die Jonglierbälle aufgemacht habe, dachte ich mich trifft es. Auf dem Ettikett steht Made in China. Das hat mich wirklich extrem verärgert. Letzter Kauf bei diesem Anbieter.

Pleased so far.. so far I'm quite good with one ball (what do you mean that's call catching not juggling..)
Pleased with these - I've never juggled before so I've got nothing to compare them to but I do appreciate the benefit of having balls which don't roll away when they're dropped! Not sure I need the bag as I don't anticipate my life as a travelling juggler is about to start any time soon .. also the reference to a video being available online is true enough .. there's lots of videos available on YouTube. I liked one by a guy called Niels Duinker - worth a look.

Juggling balls with added value
Very pleased with the juggling balls. Nice to handle. Excellent value for money. Good to have a bag to keep them in when not in use. I LOVED the video. The video is freely available on You Tube anyway but you get instructions on where to look to save having to hunt for it. Loads of juggling videos available on You Tube but I liked this one best of all. Mr M has added just the right amount of quirkiness in his presentation to make the video entertaining as well as instructional.

juggling balls - ruby ball shape
These balls are 61mm x 67 mm. This may seem a bit picky when 6mm off being spherical. However, they do look enough off spherical for me to measure them. When juggling this does mean it is not a comfortable catch and throw and more likely to drop. When performing tricks whilst juggling, bouncing the ball of the knee, elbow or even flicking the ball into the air with the foot it is a bit hit and miss. It also does not give a professional look when juggling with the misshaped balls. Will keep them but will look for a quality set. Tangerines are just as spherical and give a better catch and throw as they are a bit more accommodating on the hand. May update later if the tangerines last longer than the balls.

You will drop them. A lot.
I live in a flat. My neighbour below me now hates me.These are great, but learn with lighter balls, these make a proper thud when you miss! Not their fault, they are good size and weight.
