Yeah, same thing, then. Interesting that others consider them heavy. I guess I haven't had my hands on enough truly "lightweight" clubs, then. But, I suppose all is relative to what you're used to.

Well, I have had two open-hearts and pacemaker surgeries, so I am not as strong as I could be. I don't mean physically, I mean "muscle wise"

Ouch. Already? How old are you? Fairly young, no?

31. I had my first at 14 and my second at 16, in between two pacemaker surgeries. Since then, 3 more pace surgeries, 5 altogether) and 2 open-hearts.

Physically, I am capable of a lot, just strength-wise, with regard to juggling, when they cut your muscles that many times, makes you less able to keep heavy things in the air for anything beyond an hour or more. Maybe I should look into investing in these clubs....

Anyone learn anything more about these clubs?

Just ordered them, I will let you know how they are when I get them. It was a toss-up between the PX3 deco and the Henry Nightwing.

I'm considering buying some short-handled PX3's. Let us know what you think!

Now you are getting me interested in these clubs, and I already have two other sets, I don't need any more.

They are the only club the WJF use, apparently.

THE WJF STORE

I didn't get those though, I got these

PX3 Deco - Juggling Clubs - JugglingStore.com

They are beautiful clubs. But I don't think they are going to be noticably lighter. If your normal clubs are 225 to 230 grams and the PX3s are 218 grams , that is only about the weight of a nickle. There are 28 grams to an ounce.
