For some reason I can’t fathom, they seem to find body popping and contact juggling worth watching, but other than that, they have a lot of cool stuff.

Inhuman Bounce Juggling
Alan Sulc is by far the most technically advance bounce juggler that I have ever seen. No one can force-bounce eight and nine balls as long as he does in performance even in practise sessions!
Olga And Vova re-take their World Records.
Olga and Vova Galchenko have been considered the most technically advanced passing team for years. They held the club passing records for 9, 10, 11, and 12 clubs. However, as time went on, Olga and Vova began to go their seperate ways, and their records slipped away. Click Here for more.
