A common problem for many jugglers is that there is no juggling shop in their town. The reason for this is simple – there is not enough demand to support a store that relies on walk in sales alone. Think about it… how many jugglers do you run into in a normal day? Usually none.
Although juggling has increased in popularity, juggling shops are just not that common. In the US, I can only think of two that I have actually walked into and tried their juggling equipment. One was Dube juggling, and the other was called Air Traffic. Dube is in NYC so their is enough demand to support walk in sales, but they also have a huge online presence. Air Traffic is in Mall of America, a huge mall in Minnesota. They also sell a lot of other toys and games aside from juggling equipment.
So the problem remains that you can’t really try juggling equipment before you buy it if you don’t have a juggling shop in your town. So in order to help jugglers make better choices when they choose their juggling equipment, I created another site. It is called Juggling Reviews. This new site that I created is a collection of all the juggling equipment on the market today. There is a page for each type of juggling equipment and you can browse by type of equipment or by manufacturer. On each page is a ratings box that you can use.
You can rate each type of juggling equipment on a scale of 1-5 stars and add comments. The purpose of this site is to help jugglers get comments and ratings from jugglers who already own the equipment. The success of the site depends on whether or not people actually contribute. So I would encourage you to go there and rate all the different juggling equipment you have.
The site once again is, JugglingReviews.com.
