How to Do Tricks While Juggling with Arms

Video Transcript

Hi, Jeremy here with Expert Village. We're going to go ahead and continue talking about how to use your arm to do tricks. We're going to go ahead and, instead of just rolling it down, we're going to stop it at our elbow, and we're going to actually learn how to top it up from one elbow and catch in on the other. Now, your body actually has a bunch of spots that make natural stopping spots for the ball. One of them is the elbow, you can see kind of a natural divot here and one, there's actually a spot in your collarbone, when you try to roll it around your chest, you can actually stop it up there. There's a couple other spots too, but those are the most common spots besides the hands which are the easiest ones to learn. Now if you've practiced going up and down the arm, what you do is go ahead and go up and down the arm, as it gets to where you going to want it to roll back down, instead, try and control it so that it stops, right in that divot area. And once again, just like the back of your hand, you'll have to get used to kind of just holding it there, sometimes want to, maybe do that before you try and roll up the hand and stop it there, it's just, find out where that spot is and just try and learn how to balance it there. Once you do have that done, and with both arms, what you can do is bend your arm a little bit, and you're going to pop it up, and you actually catch it in your other elbow. And your other elbow, make sure that you don't have it so tight that you lose your spot to catch it on, have it just a little bit bent and cushion it as it comes down, so it doesn't just want to roll off your arm.
