Juggling Cup - Mister Babache
Item sold individually .
PVC cup for cup juggling. This discipline is reminiscent of box juggling. Cup juggling is more commonly known for its aluminum cup versions.
Each cup fits inside each other so that they can be grabbed from inside each other.
NetJuggler's review of the Mister Babache juggling cup:
This cup has good inertia, which is given by a weight at its end. The counterweight system has been well thought out here since you can adjust the inertia of your cups yourself so that they turn more or less thanks to two rubber parts that can be put or removed from the bottom of the cups. In the photos, this is the part that can be seen in black. There are two in each cup. Each cup is supplied with 2 weights. This model will therefore be able to provide good performance for manipulation and juggling.
Made from PVC, this cup is sturdy and made to withstand heavy use for both indoor and outdoor use! The fact that this model is made of PVC has the advantage of making much less noise than aluminum cups .
In the image above, the yellow and red sections represent removable weights. You can remove one or both. Removing one or more weights will slow down the rotation of the cup.

- Height 14.5cm.
- Diameter 12.5cm.

Are these cups good for beginners and is the removable weight system reliable?
These cups are perfect for getting started with this discipline. I don't know what you mean by reliable, but the weight system works well and plays on the placement of the cup's center of gravity to make it spin faster or slower. This way, you can have a direct impact on how the cups react: more or less dynamic.
reliable, that is to say if the weight system remains well fixed over time
I don't personally use cups for juggling. I'm tempted to get into it a bit though, at least to be able to better advise my clients! So I don't have any feedback on the lifespan of this system. However, having handled them, I know that the system has come in strong, and that it's a bit of a hassle to get the weights out. So in my opinion, you're safe in terms of the lifespan. It's very industrial rubber, I don't see why it would change over time.
