um yeah i was born in 94 lol. I have never kept a record with juggling as i dont really see the need to. I would say the most i think i have done is around 300ish. Im not 100% sure though.
I can do the atw with my strong leg about 9/10 times and probably about 5/10 times with my left leg.

im no expert so i wont tell u how to juggle, but an advice i can give u is not to use taylor swift songs in vids :]

I thought it went well with the vid lol. Ill keep this in mind  lol

and Lis thanks for the advice. I am now using my toes and just touching the ball into the air instead of kicking it. It felt weird at first but its fine now i am used to it. It makes atw's and htw's LOADS easier. There is so much more control its unbelievable. I will make another vid in a week or two so you guys can make some more suggestions on where to improve :D

So thank you to everybody who commented on here and on my video with tips and advice. I really appreciate it

Im so confused right now lol. When you use toes do you mean you kick with your toes or you just kind of lift your foot when the ball hits it? I will post a video of what i am doing tomorrow and you can tell me if im doing it right. At the moment i am just lifting my foot and letting my toes hit the ball in the air and the ball is not spinning (which is good)

Also if someone could post a vid of them doing juggles that would be really appreciated

thanks

I understand what you mean. I just watched a video of him. Is this how you juggle? Is this how most freestylers juggle as i have not noticed others doing it i dont think?

thanks

Or try it with your toes. I find that works best for me ;P

I find that when i juggle with my toes that is when i get the most spin on the ball (which i dont really want) I watched macca's juggling tutorial and he says to use the laces (sweet spot :P) and i find this works best for me. I broke my record today on juggling, got 325 I guess the more i freestyle the more i will improve my juggling and ball control :D

update* leg is fine now, no pain atall

Thanks for the advice. My juggling is usually slightly better than that but the wind in my back garden was really powerful. It got quite frustrating to be honest. I will still work on my juggling though. I thought that if i learnt to use both feet early it would become helpful as i try harder tricks. Yeah the next trick i was going to attempt (After perfecting the atw's with both feet) was going to be the htw with both legs. I think i do one htw in the video, just not a very good one lol.

Thanks

I put this in the help section but i think it should go in here. I have been freestyling for about 5days. Any suggestions on how i could improve are welcome.
