Contact juggling

I have 2 fushigis (i was lucky enough to get 2 in a box by accident). They are good to learn with, however, if you want to get serious about contact juggling in the future, i hugely suggest you think about purchasing a better ball from somewhere. contact juggling .org has some good tips about what balls to use. Frankly, the fushigis just arent that great. Personally, I hate the metal sphere inside the acrylic. they are always off-center and look bad. Plus, they arent as durable as other balls, but hey, its good to start with :P
 
My local juggling shop called "Air Traffic" sells contact juggling spheres. They are high-quality acrylic. Not sure I want to invest too heavily in contact juggling. I've just always been a fan of it since the movie "Labyrinth". I'll try out the Fushigi for now, and if I take a strong liking to it, I'll invest in a nicer orb.
