didn't really like it $:-\$

i think it lacked ...erm... juggling. there was a lot of shots of clubs and balls on the floor, too much IMO. and also there were quite a few shots of people dropping and doing easy tricks.

music sucked too.

looked like quite a nice convention too.

damn that was a mean comment.

Um, yes. What happened to our polite-o-meter?

Didn't seem that bad to me. Looked like a good festival. Music is a matter of taste, no? Not a terrible choice to get across a relaxed feeling.

My main suggestion would be to avoid all the black video at the end. I know Tony Frebourg does it (well, did it once), but that doesn't make it cool.

Anyways, I always like to see footage from conventions around the world, so thanks for taking the time to share.

maybe the vid is just to give an impression of the stuff going on in this gathering. not too bad, but I demand more tricks and less pics next time.

dude, what the heck is up with the music in that video?!
i mean, if you want to listen to christian pop then by all means do, but did you think that people would actually like it in a diabolo video? choose something than not necessarily you like a lot but something that you think everyone will like/know.

i couldn't bare it. personally i think that video should get the title of 'worst music ever'.

on the bright side, i thought that there was some nice juggling in there but the diabolo part was too long with too much speeding up. you editied the video, why can't you edit the diabolo part!

Make it how you want.

I enjoyed it

nice tricks, good work and such.

p.s i hope everyone doesn't jump on the music bandwagon now

Diabolo Bro · « **Reply #12 on:** June 12, 2008, 11:31:29 PM »

I HATED THE MUSIC

naw just kiddin', sorry funty just had to jump on that one

hmm, nice convention video, some of the shots were shaky or distant, but nice juggling, I did like the first 2d, but it seems your shuffle in unnatural or something, ah well nice suns, but why the basic vertax, ramp it up.

Not too bad overall

William · « **Reply #13 on:** June 13, 2008, 02:10:48 AM »

I think the music was epic.

Not a bad video.

fzzyrn · « **Reply #14 on:** June 13, 2008, 03:07:25 AM »

Didn't you say the music on one of the other convention vids sucked also?

Someone likes to hate

Crackers · « **Reply #15 on:** June 13, 2008, 12:38:48 PM »

Can you really call it a bonus section when it does more than half the video ?

Niclas · « **Reply #16 on:** June 13, 2008, 12:52:18 PM »

I don't think i can

Diabolo88 · « **Reply #17 on:** June 13, 2008, 01:08:29 PM »

Well...not my kind of music either but as long as you ignore the horrible lyrics it´s istrumentals are pretty decent at least haha. Note that I´m talking about the song in the bonuspart here, which was excruciating to listen to for me as an atheist. It was just christian propagandalyrics for 6 mins. The first video had OK music all around.

Also, I thank you for me not being seen very much in the vid (I asked to not be included and then realized that´s hard since I was in the gym pretty much 24/7

)

To the ones who wasn´t there. Convention was very small with a very small (and hot), semi-underground gym. Good places for bouncejugglers to practice in the corridors and "Folkets Park" just close by for showing off or basking in the sun. Level of juggling was maybe not the highest but certainly higher than what you got to see in the vid (not criticising that). Only thing bad to say about the convention was some of the shows weren´t too good (if anyone saw the trapezegirl´s fall from the first show you would´ve said "OW" too

).

Thanks for both videos.

You wouldn´t happen to have film of the Open Stage from the Saturday night btw?

I had to leave the convention exactly when the openstage did start. Sad but true

Diabolo88 · « **Reply #19 on:** June 13, 2008, 02:25:00 PM »

I did too so that´s too bad. Oh well, maybe Sondre (Yomay) got it?
