What is Contact juggling, what differs it from normal juggling?
Is it just that you use hard balls or is there any other diffrence?

I tried it once or twice - got to the stage where I could almost do the butterfly with my right had, then someone mentioned powerkiting.
No contest, sorry!

was thinking of getting a Cjball when i was plaing around with one of my freidns ones in the office, the most i could do is slide it frommy palm to my revers and back again and roll it up me arm to me elbow then it rolling down the underside and catching it in me hand lol! but i think the people downstairs must have got annoyed cause i kept dropping it!!
