Rock Ridge 76mm Black Acrylic Juggling Ball for Contact Juggling | Great for Beginners and Professionals

First off, not all contact juggling balls are the same. I heard stories of acrylic balls being unbalanced and thus making working with the defective ball extremely tough. So I guess it would depend on which seller you purchase the balls from.This review is of a black 2.95 inch (76 mm) acrylic ball purchased from ROCK RIDGE SALES, INC.Scratches and tellmarks: This ball was free from any scratches and tellmarks and was received well-wrapped (first in cellophane, then with a plastic ziplock bag, and finally bubble-wrapping around that).Balance: I rolled the ball several times on a plate of flat glass and the ball did not wobble in the slightest. The balance is perfect.Weight: Acrylic itself is heavier than most other CJ ball materials (metal excluded), and this ball's weight is as expected for a ball of this size.Durability: All acrylic balls are susceptible to scratches, marring, and cuts if dropped on a hard surface or banged against a wall. When practicing a new technique, it's best to use a baseball/softball or stageball, or even better, a Sil-X ball. If you wish to practice with the acrylic ball, try to do so over carpeting or on a bed (just make sure the ball won't roll off the bed), and keep low to the ground (eg. practice while kneeling or seated) to reduce the impact of drops.Overall this ball was received in perfect condition, free of any defects, and performs admirably.On a side note, this seller also included a two-page instructional sheet with photos explaining how to perform a few rudimentary tricks with the contact juggling ball--which was a thoughtful touch.

I've ordered this ball on two separate occasions, and in both cases I received a CLEAR ball. I've decided to keep it because I don't mind having more clear ones and this does seem to be good quality. But geez...

Whenever I am giving a counseling session, I start performing contact juggling moves... It kind of gives off that evil leader mystique. Dr. Evil constantly petted Mr. bigglesworth the cat. Two-Face flipped a coin between his fingers. Me... I pretend I'm David Bowie.
