I found a new type of ball by Hoberman. It's not a puzzle as some of his other creations, but I didn't want to share it in any other section of this forum.

Wow, that answers the old juggling problem I posed about how to make the balls change. Thanks Tomas.

I bought two more today and let a friend juggle them. I looks totally bizarre.
Other creations by this brilliant guy can be seen at http://www.hoberman.com He has some _huge_ creations as parts of some buildings. /Tomas |

That's pretty! Not a blow-away, but certainly clever.

Nir, indeed I bought them here in Sweden. Thought I'd get them cheaper from USA but when 12 arrived today I saw that shipping and tax made them even more expensive. I found them at BR Toys here in Sweden and assume Toys R' Us have them too.
Now I have to practice Mills-Mess. /Tomas |

Thanks TomasB. I also juggle. Those look cool!

I've seen a magician use those as a dove cage and produce a (fake) bird in them.

You 2 are thinking of the sphere, I think. I'm guessing the link linked to something different.

Yes, it was a link to one of the Switch Pitch balls:
