Juggling cup - Mister Babache
Item sold individually.
PVC juggling cup. This discipline is reminiscent of juggling with boxes. We are more used to seeing people juggling with aluminum cups.
Each cup fits into each other so that they can be grabbed into each other.
NetJuggler's opinion on Mister Babache's juggling cup:
This cup has good inertia given to it 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 in the bottom of the cups. In the photos, this is the black part. There are two in each cup. Each cup is supplied with 2 weights. This model can therefore give good performance for handling and juggling.
Item made of PVC, this cup is robust and made to endure intensive use both indoors and outdoors! The fact that this model is made of PVC has the advantage of making much less noise than aluminum cups.
On the picture above, the yellow part and the red part represent the removable weights. You can remove one or both. Removing one or more weights will slow down the rotation of the cup.

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.
