IM GETTING SO FRUSTURATED! I try to do tricks, but i cant because I cant juggle without the ball going high or making it bounce around. I cant keep it still and low. When i try it just hits my toes and gets alot of spin on it and just hits my shins and messes me up... HELP ME!

ok well you can start by taping the ball not so hard and then when your ready to do your air move hit the ball high so you can get it done, other wise if you starrt jugglnig and the ball goes to high you will be all over the place trying to controle the ball you need to stay still and controle gently and keep practicing.

practice. juggling is VERY basic. not much else nebody can tell you.

practice .... its not easy ..... but if you do it since you are 6, at the age of 15 you could easily do 50 keepups ....
about your particular problem..... you hit the ball too hard....
and dont forget, first is first .... do the easy stuff first and make sure you can do it properly, dont try doing atw's and bad ass shit...

no matter how frustrating it is, youll get it after many hours of juggling

i made this video for you and other people who have trouble juggling. it is about 1 minute long and it shows basic juggling technique that i did outside my house. i hope this helps you and anyone else who needs it.
enjoy.

the easiest way to juggle is just to 'relax', this is the best way you can juggle, if you are 'stiff' and trying too hard, it is very hard to juggle, so just relax and enjoy yourself when you juggle, thats all.

EDIT: the first part of the video is normal juggling technique, which has slow-motion, the rest of the video shows different techniques of juggling such as juggling with one foot, and using outside and inside foot. jay-jay okocha said it is best to juggle with both feet, using every part of your body.....(u kno wat i mean).....and using every part of your feet, so that in the game when the ball comes, you can control it with whatever surface you want.

nice control m8, tho u seem to have been gettin a bit shaky with the "hacky sack" style juggles

btw you should try to show juggles with knees, backheels, shoulders and head

i dont spend weeks trying tricks and editing videos with music and stuff like you, i just went out one day for one minute and decided to do some simple juggling with my feet so that people can learn normal juggling, not with backheels and roundtheworlds, i made this video because this guy needed help to juggle, not do backheels.

well i was jus goin by what UR post was tryina say bout dat thing bout using every part of ur body.

and jus for ur info, i can do all my tricks live and it only takes half an hour to edit the videos and maybe an hour and a half max.

cool, do you have to change your shirt every half an hour?

edit: i mean, why do you change your shirt and pants after every 3 tricks or so?

That's a great clip mate. Only thing that bothered me were those pants, but its all good

that's cuz i don't like to freestyle in front of the camera for too long. i get a couple clips each time i want to record any and then i go and do other stuff.

is that right? so you are saying that you spend about 30 seconds making your video, and then go and do something else, because you dont like doing tricks in front of your camera??? i would like to see if youre right, if you make a video of all your tricks without losing control of the ball, then i will believe you.

oh dear oh dear, tsk tsk tsk... i will show you a vid of about a minute and a half of my tricks unedited just so you'll believe me. and if you still don't believe me, i'd be very happy to agree to making a 5 minute video of unedited tricks. cuz it really doesn't take much of my time, it's just a real bother to get dressed, get my camera and go outside.

of course i messed up once during this clip and these are mostly easy tricks, but they are plenty good enough to put on a quite adequate live performance. i kept on going afterwards but this clip was for a battle with another freestyler on another forum and there was a time limit.

and you seem to have a habit of going off topic on things. let's not do that anymore. we can settle this further by pm if you still have some kind of a problem with me. let's just not further crowd the forums with useless unprovoked posts.

jugglin is basic, 1 week of practice and ull be ok, dont kick the ball hard, softly and gently
