Yesterday I played volleyclub. I like to play with two club tricks between points and games, as that is the natural thing for a juggler holding two clubs to do. I decided to see how many two club squeeze catches I could do in a row between points, and I got a bit obsessed with this routine.<\/p>\n

After the tournament (and a swim in the sea and a shower) I got even more obsessed, and actually thought I could string 9 different squeeze catches together in one sequence. Turns out, with practice, anything is possible. Each one of the tricks is possible after a few minutes of practice, but getting them solid enough to link together in a routine takes more time. I’ve done all these tricks before, so after an hour of practice I did the routine without a drop. I bailed on the fire show, and took another 15 goes at the routine before I managed it again. Check it out:<\/p>\n

What you get to see (and try for yourself):
\n– flat throw squeeze catch
\n– single spin squeeze catch
\n– double spin squeeze catch
\n– flat front half spin squeeze catch
\n– flat front single spin squeeze catch
\n– flat front double spin squeeze catch
\n– flat front single spin to reverse-grip squeeze catch
\n– flat front flat throw bulb to bulb squeeze catch
\n– as yet unnamed throw and squeeze catch<\/p>\n
