I scratch in reverse. Dominant hand on fader. I do have better control with dominant on record, but i've decided that i'll just train up my weak hand, as either way i'd have to train it up one way or the other. I find it easier to juggle in reverse and would suggest people try it, but...its starting to get confusing as i'm trying to learn triplets and strobing juggles...and watching videos of people do it...with the fader normal is doing my head in :| i know the theory and what i need to do...but having to convert movements into reverse gets quite complicated...

The thing is, i can usually pick up patterns and techniques (for practice not biting purposes) with a normal fader and then i'll slowly convert it into reverse...and i've thought about just juggling normal...but its having to flick my reverse switch all the time that bugs me!

Was wondering does anyone have a similar problem/anyone know of or can make videos of juggles in reverse...

If not i guess i might just try and train myself to scratch normal which i find easier for cuts, but harder for other techniques...

you have a video of some of that action ???

P-Trix, Q-Bert, and Mike Relm come to mind as far as juggling hamster style. When it comes to juggling though, it's hard as hell. I can juggle like Kid Sid and just use some I.Emerg records haha. Props to you for doing it reverse, it looks ridiculously hard. One way I practice is that Le Jad had some skipless juggle samples up on his MySpace that you could download in a .zip file. All in all, it comes down to practice, practice, practice, and oh yeah, practice!

Also don't give up.

Anyone seen Mike Relm with the zoetrope thing? This gives me ideas.
