Juggling Tutorial - Boston Shuffle (a.k.a. Slams)

[@ericsurf6]

Cool pattern, it's got a nice flow to it. Think I may have to learn that. 5 STARZ! Shower in both directions....Uggggh

[@thegoheads]

sweet! I can do it now! I had perfected slams on one side, but not so good on my weak side. After watching this video, I immediately got it. Your tutorials are THE BEST!!!

[@Wieszak99]

You make great tutorials, Al ! The most important thing is to understand how the pattern works and then just practise it. I find your videos extremely helpful, thank you :)

[@bowerjd]

Great video. It got me 'boston shuffling' in one evening! Thanks!

[@TaylorTries]

Awesome trick, never seen it before! Great tutorial, so clear. And good music ;)

[@NathanMcScary]

I would like to thank you. This tutorial gave me all I needed to know to learn this pattern. Thanks!

[@TimLippert]

Another excellent tut/edit job :) This is one of my favorite tricks. It's a real eye catcher.

[@Spathever]

I have to say that this is a really excellent video. You demontrate the basics so well. I think I could learn this trick now if I wanted to. I think I'm going to work on chops first though :D

[@LukeGravett]

The pattern where two balls move up and down in columns with the thrid ball being slammed down over them is called Lukes Shuffle. For the record I (Luke Jugglestruck/Gravett) invented it in 1991 and showed it To Charlie Dancey who included it in his book on three ball juggling.

[@cappybenton]

Cappy really appreciated this tutorial. Thanks

[@MasterHollis14]

A little bit after 3:23 you hit two balls in the air and recover, I had never noticed that before! Nice save!

[@zonedrifter]

I can do this now!! Thanks for the tutorial. Still can't do the box, though...

[@Triathlonjuggler]

nice song, nice tutorial. i am going to practice it now.

[@Electricspoink]

this rock looks soooooo sweet! time to practise!

[@pap5i]

Great video and well put together

[@oxiwhate8058]

THANKS FOR THE TUTORIAL

[@Cal3star]

THAT IS A GREAT TUTORIAL !!!

[@Thisisparadoxalstudios]

You actually do the base trick but about the felling I had watching you doing this trick, I think you still have work to do in the artistic part before being able to teach it. You gotta master it so much that it will look smooth anf amazing. Sorry if you don't share my point.. but juggling is all about the felling it give to the people that are watching you, isn't it?

[@HenryZamora95]

Sweet tutorial, this helped a ton!

[@Jimmy_Blake]

yet another fine tutorial, thanks ahgain

[@peenleib]

the design of video is great - like it))

[@cpaterson6]

thanx for this, its a funky lookin trick

[@granjerojose]

Nice tut, remember when I learned this, loved it. Hmm, I thought boston shuffle was something else, I thought thats called slams whereas boston shuffle is box with the bottom throw different. Hmm, I could just know it by another name.

[@RuudVanPistolrooy]

Nice tutorial. Any idea what the version of this juggle is called where every single throw is a slam? I've been working on it a while, but not seem any vids up for it. It's hard as hell and was looking for some tips! Cheers

[@ericsurf6]

Hey, I know this other guy that makes pretty good juggling tutorials.

[@emilegoguely4032]

Thanks

[@bloonmasterjuggling]

@RuudVanPistolrooy oh I think it's the "drop box" or "luke's shuffle"

[@clerkin74]

nice tutorial;)....and nice music :)

[@rabidfish101]

great video man, thanks a ton

[@MeaganAfterDark]

cool! I'm totally going to learn this today :D

[@TheBiggestOfAls]

Thanks, I use Sony Vegas Movie Studio.

[@TheBiggestOfAls]

I think it might be called Luke's Shuffle. I don't know for definite though. Not sure if it even has an 'official' name.

[@RuudVanPistolrooy]

You're right it's Luke's Shuffle. Cheers man :)

[@JeremeK]

I believe Slams are an alternative name to the full Shuffle.

[@TheBiggestOfAls]

There are Box tutorials here on KZbin.

[@granjerojose]

Try twjc, they name a lotta tricks, I think boston shuffle is box with a slam throw on the side instead of a normal "1". *shrugs*

[@miiiikku]

I was watching ted talk about algorithms and i heard about Boston snuffle. That name stuck with me, it sounds cool so I googled it and then opened this, stayed for music.

[@Jahjahcob]

is like a box, every throw is a colums and then do the slam, its a different kind of box

[@TheBiggestOfAls]

The version where every throw from one hand is a slam is just called the shuffle. I don't think it's possible to have every throw from both hands as a slam.

[@TheBiggestOfAls]

Ah. I just found out it is called Slams. But I've seen people call it Boston Shuffle as well, so I don't know.

[@RuudVanPistolrooy]

Yeah sorry my explanation was a bit off there. Its two simultaneous throws like a box on one side , then the same one the other. Looks like a box pattern but with the ball that would normally go across the bottom doing a figure of 8 around the two columns. I'm probably not doing a very good job of describing it here :)

[@mByyurt]

It's siteswap is the same as the box, am i right?

[@Voltagraphy]

So where do I learn the box?

[@TheBiggestOfAls]

Luke's Shuffle is different and a much faster pattern, from what I've seen.

[@Domar95]

What kind of bags are those

[@Voltagraphy]

Good explaining! *goes to practise*

[@Juggles8]
