4 balls, 3 clubs, 3 rings, 4 clubs, 4 rings, 5 balls, 5 rings, 6 balls, 7 balls, 45 minutes

Threw some stuff while waiting on my son to finish up with his Pole Vault practice. 4 clubs was a bit of a disaster today, but, 6 balls getting better and 7 balls starting to feel almost doable.

Heydar

3 rings, 4 rings, 5 rings, 6 rings, 7 rings, 8 rings, ball passing, 300 minutes

Full session at Camcircus. Mostly rings, with about an hour of ball passing at the end.

Lots of basics with 3 and 4 rings, then quick 5 and 6 rings and a decent session of 7 and 8.

Highlights: ass catch out of 3 rings with a flat, 3 rings with headbounce improvement, 4 up 720, 4 up 360 into pancakes, several runs of 7 rings around 20 catches, 8 ring flash async.

Also, some work on bxx exercises for 5, but not much improvement there.

Ball passing felt much improved. Fell into high-low patterns with me throwing lower and straight, under incoming throws. Felt poor light was partly to blame for not getting longer runs. We'll see on Wednesday...

tightrope, 70 minutes

Well, it was more like a thin wooden balance beam I made. Quite enjoyable with water socks on.

rola bola, 40 minutes

Whacked my front tooth with a club last week, so ... this. Seems okay for now. Love my new clubs, but so does the wind.

Total practice time: 110 minutes

Maria

3 clubs, 4 clubs, 30 minutes

A short session today, decided to stop when "on the top", before I got tired.

3 clubs:
Warm up
Practiced a sequence that S and T did on our annual performance last time, I have made it a few times a couple of months ago but only managed to get to the end once today. Also did some attempts on only the end of it.
55113, second "1" behind my back, got 3 connected rounds today.
44502, thumb roll on the "2", two connected rounds and back to cascade.
55500, a lot better than yesterday. Noticed that I need to cross the throws better, especially the last triple is usually close to the middle (right in front of me) and though that might not matter now it seems like a bad idea to practice like that in case I'd ever like to try some triples with more than 3 clubs.

4 clubs:
New personal record! 34 catches. Fountain, doubles.

3-5 clubs, 5 rings, 9-11 ball passing, 6 club passing, balance, 250 minutes

Unexceptional club juggling session. Working on usual backcrosses, balance and a few other bits.

Club passing with Misha. 4 count tricks (tomahawks, half contortion throws, bxx, under leg, shoulders etc.), 3 count, 2 count lefthanded, ultimates and countdown.

Ball passing with Heydar. Filmed most of this. Noticeable improvement over last week:

9b - best 90 catches. Me throwing crosses and slightly higher. 4-5 runs in the 70-90 passes range.
10b - best 39 catches. Very collision prone, but began to feel manageable once we raised the pattern a bit
11b - 5 minutes at the end in pretty shoddy light with no decent runs. Felt almost easier than 10 though. Something to work on.

Total practice time: 250 minutes
