Niels Duinker 7 balls

8:38 am in videos by ori.roth

Here is a small video I came across thanks to my facebook account, when one of my friends commented on it. It features 2 7 balls tricks. The funny things about this video is that usually a juggler filming a success of a new trick will do the trick, juggle for a few more seconds and then celebrate by throwing his balls as hard as he can on the ground (why? this issue will have to be addressed one day). Here Niels juggles for about 10 seconds after the success of his trick so I thought the balls would be spared. or maybe not? look for yourself…

Our Mascot came for a visit

As you probably know, out mascot is the chameleon, making his appearance in our logo, our t-shirts, and here and there across the site. a few days ago, when I was in my backyard going through some jugglingequipment this friend was looking at me from one of the boxes. We made a quick photo shoot with some juggling props before he continued onwards to his next adventure…

Here are a couple of the pictures we made together.

a quick look at building a circus tent

8:30 am in general stuff, videos by raffi.vitis

here’s a nice video of the procedure of raising the tent of the Knie circus in Switzerland. The video is the summary of 2 hours of work, and if you look closely during the first half of the video it sure looks like they are walking around a lot without anything really happening.

Name: Ori Roth
Country: Israel
Age: 22
Favorite prop: Balls
Started Juggling: 9 years old
Currently working on: A big juggling video!

Short Bio:
After 9 years of watching hundreds of my father Yuval, and his partner Tal Ginat, shows, I eventually learnt to juggle.
Through the next 2 years I trained with my brother Shay almost nonstop.
Then I got a bit tired of it and forgot about it till I was 16.
When Vova and Olga Galchenko came to the 10th IJC they stayed one week after in my house and it really got me (and my brother and cousin (Avner)) back to juggling.
After that it was mostly Avner that continued juggling and practicing with me. We started making videos and perform together in a local circus.
2 years later it was Avner’s turn to quit again and going full power with his basketball career.
Since then I attended and performed in juggling conventions (mostly IJC’s and EJC’s) and making videos of me and my friends.
Defining moment in my juggling history: Going to the 2004 EJC. After a couple of short IJC’s it was my first EJC and everything there just shocked me.


Favorite Cereal: Shugi
3 things you didn’t know about me:
1. I broke my right hand 5 times in 10 years.
2. I made a world record (unofficial) in Bejeweled 2.0 Deluxe.
3. I taught Bar Mualem how to do club passing.

If I weren’t a juggler, I would be: A snail, or something with computers…
Time it took me to learn 5 balls: 4 months
Is juggling sport or art? Both!
If I were a juggling equipment, I would be: A beanbag…
Jugglers in my family: Everyone except my mother…
Juggling equipment that has not been invented yet: Triple poi
Famous juggler i’d love to pass with: Anthony Gatto
after the invention of a time machine – what advice would you give to your younger self?
Knowing diabolo may be useful, but also bad for your right wrist.
