Another one of Bram’s Video Challenge videos. This is pretty much like one of the best juggling videos I have ever seen. There I said it. He could have not done any juggling in this and it would have been equally as awesome.

Abbas Farid is a British Football Freestyler who’s won competitions and awards and that sort of thing, check out his website here: Abbasfarid.com for lots of info about that.

He does ace body rolling obviously, and integrates foot juggling, acrobatics and some amazing ball control that I’ve never seen before. He’s a bit good in other words. :D

This guy is like the guy that takes flowerstix as seriously as Marcus Furtner takes devilsticks. He’s so good at it, it doesn’t even seem possible.

You know, Me and Drew were saying there weren’t any good videos coming out, and then like three come along at once… Time to eat our words.

This one is totes spesh. Shot by some guy with a sweet camera and edited by none other than Ori Roth. It’s exactly what you want out of a juggling video, a sweet cameraman with a good eye and then a juggler to edit it, since he knows all about the jugglings.

Featuring everyone you ever wanted to see doing club manipulation (Jordaan, Sander, Lestage (The juggler from Psy)) and then some ball juggling. Ball juggling by the likes of Stefan Sing (!). There is so much win on this video that the word win doesn’t contain enough win to describe it.

Directed and shot by Ben Hopper http://THEREALBenHopper Edited by Ori Roth http://www.youtube.com/Aiyegbeni

I totally schedules this for later, so if it gets posted up by someone else before. Not my problems. I was totes first.

Students from the circus school in Bordeaux, Dorian Thevenet, Boris Couty, Dimitri Rizelo, strun Lucas, Bruno Samon, Maxime Sales and Tom Lacoste, clearly put a lot of effort into making this video, great filming, great skills. and great use of white powder. ACE.
The spin on the unicycle (4:40) and the 2 toe spin on skates (5:40) stand out for me.
Thanks Maelle for the link. Smiles, Drew
